We consider a family of embedded, mean convex hypersurfaces which evolve by the mean curvature flow. It follows from general results of White that the inscribed radius at each point on the surface is at least $\frac{c}{H}$, where $c$ is a…

Suppose that $M$ is a $2$-dimensional oriented Riemannian manifold, and let $\gamma$ be a simple closed curve on $M$. Let $m \gamma$ denote the curve formed by tracing $\gamma$ $m$ times. We prove that if $m \gamma$ is contractible through…

We construct a compact set in $\mathbb R^2$ of measure 0 containing a piece of a parabola of every aperture between 1 and 2. As a consequence, we improve lower bounds for the $L^p$-$L^q$ norm of the corresponding maximal operator for a…

We say that a signed graph is $k$-critical if it is not $k$-colorable but every one of its proper subgraphs is $k$-colorable. Using the definition of colorability due to Naserasr, Wang, and Zhu that extends the notion of circular…

In this article, we solve the constant mean curvature dirichlet problem on catenoidal necks with small scale in $\mb{R}^3$. The solutions are found in exponentially weighted H\"older spaces with non-integer weight and are a-priori bounded…

We show that any isometric immersion of a flat plane domain into $\mathbb R^3$ is developable provided it enjoys the little H\"older regulairty $c^{1,2/3}$. In particular, isometric immersions of local $C^{1,\alpha}$ regularity with $\alpha…

In the present paper, we define and study $C$-parallel and $C$-proper slant curves of $S$-manifolds. We prove that a curve $\gamma $ in an $S$-manifold of order $r\geq 3,$ under certain conditions, is $C$-parallel or $C$-parallel in the…

We prove the mean curvature flow of a spacelike graph in $(\Sigma_1\times \Sigma_2, g_1-g_2)$ of a map $f:\Sigma_1\to \Sigma_2$ from a closed Riemannian manifold $(\Sigma_1,g_1)$ with $Ricci_1> 0$ to a complete Riemannian manifold…
