We prove a splitting theorem for a smooth noncompact manifold with (possibly noncompact) boundary. We show that if a noncompact manifold of dimension $n\geq 2$ has $\lambda_1(-\alpha\Delta+\operatorname{Ric})\geq 0$ for some…

A submanifold is said to be tangentially biharmonic if the bitension field of the isometric immersion that defines the submanifold has vanishing tangential component. The purpose of this paper is to prove that a surface in Euclidean…

We say that a topological $n$-manifold $N$ is a cubical $n$-manifold if it is contained in the $n$-skeleton of the canonical cubulation $\mathcal{C}$ of ${\mathbb{R}}^{n+k}$ ($k\geq1$). In this paper, we prove that any closed, oriented…

Let $S$ be a convex hypersurface (the boundary of a closed convex set $V$ with nonempty interior) in $\mathbb{R}^n$. We prove that $S$ contains no lines if and only if for every open set $U\supset S$ there exists a real-analytic convex…

We study stable immersed capillary hypersurfaces in a domain $\mathcal B$ which is either a half-space or a slab in the Euclidean space $\Bbb R^{n+1}.$ We prove that such a hypersurface $\Sigma$ is rotationally symmetric in the following…

We introduce the concept of $k-$future convex spacelike/null hypersurface $\Sigma$ in an $n+1$ dimensional spacetime $M$ and prove that no $k-$dimensional closed trapped submanifold (k-CTM) can be tangent to $\Sigma$ from its future side.…

We prove a compactness theorem for holomorphic curves in 4-dimensional symplectizations that have embedded projections to the underlying 3-manifold. It strengthens the cylindrical case of the SFT compactness theorem by using intersection…

Let $\Sigma\subset \mathbb{R}^{2n}$ with $n\geq2$ be any $C^2$ compact convex hypersurface. The stability of closed characteristics has attracted considerable attention in related research fields. A long-standing conjecture states that all…

Several results concerning pairs of polynomially convex sets whose union is not even rationally convex are given. It is shown that there is no restriction on how two spaces can be embedded in some $\C^N$ so as to be polynomially convex but…

The existence of embedded minimal surfaces in non-compact 3-manifolds remains a largely unresolved and challenging problem in geometry. In this paper, we address several open cases regarding the existence of finite-area, embedded, complete,…

An affine manifold is a manifold with an affine structure, i.e. a torsion-free flat affine connection. We show that the universal cover of a closed affine 3-manifold $M$ with holonomy group of shrinkable dimension (or discompacit\'e in…

Let $\Sigma$ be a $C^3$ compact symmetric convex hypersurface in $\mathbf{R}^{8}$. For some special cases, we prove that when $\Sigma$ carries exactly four geometrically distinct closed characteristics, then all of them must be symmetric.
