The question of global existence versus finite-time singularity formation is considered for the generalized Constantin-Lax-Majda equation with dissipation $-\Lambda^\sigma$, where $\widehat {{\Lambda}^\sigma}=|k|^\sigma$, both for the…

This paper is devoted to the proof of almost global existence results for Klein-Gordon equations on Zoll manifolds (e.g. spheres of arbitrary dimension) with Hamiltonian nonlinearities, when the Cauchy data are smooth and small. The proof…

We consider the homogeneous Landau equation in $\mathbb{R}^3$ with Coulomb potential and initial data in polynomially weighted $L^{3/2}$. We show that there exists a smooth solution that is bounded for all positive times. The proof is based…

In this article, we study the critical dissipative surface quasi-geostrophic equation (SQG) in $ \mathbb{R}^2$. Motivated by the study of the homogeneous statistical solutions of this equation, we show that for any large initial data…

We apply the local removable singularity theorem for minimal laminations and the local picture theorem on the scale of topology to obtain two descriptive results for certain possibly singular minimal laminations of $\mathbb{R}^3$. These two…

We study the existence of area-minimizing homotopies between homotopic curves in the plane. While the classical Plateau problem establishes the existence of least-area surfaces spanning a single Jordan curve, the corresponding existence…

In this paper we prove two theorems. The first one is a structure result that describes the extrinsic geometry of an embedded surface with constant mean curvature (possibly zero) in a homogeneously regular Riemannian three-manifold, in any…

Let $G$ be a finite group acting on a connected open Riemann surface $X$ by holomorphic automorphisms and acting on a Euclidean space $\mathbb R^n$ $(n\ge 3)$ by orthogonal transformations. We identify a necessary and sufficient condition…

In this paper, we consider the 1D compressible Euler equation with the damping coefficient $\lambda/(1+t)^{\mu}$. Under the assumption that $0\leq \mu <1$ and $\lambda >0$ or $\mu=1$ and $\lambda > 2$, we prove that solutions exist globally…

We prove an existence theorem for the sliding boundary variant of the Plateau problem for $2$-dimensional sets in $\mathbb{R}^n$. The simplest case of sufficient condition is when $n=3$ and the boundary $\Gamma$ is a finite disjoint union…

We consider stable minimal surfaces of genus 1 in Euclidean space and in Riemannian manifolds. Under the condition of covering stability (all finite covers are stable) we show that a genus 1 finite total curvature minimal surface in…

Solving the Plateau problem means to find the surface with minimal area among all surfaces with a given boundary. Part of the problem actually consists of giving a suitable definition to the notions of 'surface', 'area' and 'boundary'. In…

This paper aims to study the relationship between the timelike extremal hypersurfaces and the classical minimal surfaces. This target also gives the long time dynamics of timelike extremal hypersurfaces in Minkowski spacetime…

We prove the existence of nonperiodic, properly embedded minimal surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^2\times\mathbb{S}^1$ with genus zero, infinitely many ends and one limit end (in particular, they have infinite total curvature).

In this paper, we show that a complete embedded minimal surface in $\Real^3$ with finite topology and one end is conformal to a once-punctured compact Riemann surface. Moreover, using the conformality and embeddedness, we examine the…

H\"ormander proved global existence of solutions for sufficiently small initial data for scalar wave equations in $(1+4)-$dimensions of the form $\Box u = Q(u, u', u'')$ where $Q$ vanishes to second order and $(\partial_u^2 Q)(0,0,0)=0$.…

In this thesis we explore S. Klainerman's proof on the global existence of small amplitude solutions to nonlinear Klein-Gordon equations in four space-time dimensions, as established in his paper from 1985. We consider initial data with…
