We survey our recent results on classifying complete constant mean curvature 1 (CMC-1) surfaces in hyperbolic 3-space with low total curvature. There are two natural notions of "total curvature"-- one is the total absolute curvature which…
In [20], we derived representation formulae for spatially periodic solutions to the generalized, inviscid Proudman-Johnson equation and studied their regularity for several classes of initial data. The purpose of this paper is to extend…

In this paper, we study the interior $C^2$ regularity problem for the Hessian quotient equation $\left(\frac{\sigma_n}{\sigma_k}\right)(D^2u)=f$. We give a complete answer to this longstanding problem: for $k=n-1,n-2$, we establish an…
In this paper, we establish global C^2 estimates for a class of mixed Hessian equations with Neumann boundary condition, and obtain the existence theorem of k-admissible solutions for the classical Neumann problem of these mixed Hessian…
We give a relationship that yields an effective geometric way of evaluating mean curvature of surfaces. The approach is reminiscent of the Gauss's contour based evaluation of intrinsic curvature. The presented formula may have a number of…
We develop estimates for the equation of scalar curvature of singular metrics with cone angle $\beta>1$, in a big and semi-positive cohomology class on a K\"ahler manifold. We further derive the Laplacian estimate for the scalar curvature…
In this paper we establish the optimal multilinear restriction estimate for n-1 hypersurfaces with some curvature, where $n$ is the dimension of the underlying space. The result is sharp up to the endpoint and the role of curvature is made…
In this paper, we consider prescribed shifted Gauss curvature equations for horo-convex hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{H}^{n+1}$. Under some sufficient condition, we obtain an existence result by the standard degree theory based on the a prior…

In this note we generalize an extension theorem in [5] and [9] of the mean curvature flow to the H^{k} mean curvature flow under some extra conditions. The main difficult problem in proving the extension theorem is to find a suitable…
We investigate the universal property of curvatures in surface models which display a flat phase and a rough phase whose criticality is described by the Gaussian model. Earlier we derived a relation between the Hessian of the free energy…
