The $c$-curvature of a complete surface with Gauss curvature close to 1 in $C^2$ norm is almost-positive (in the sense of Kim--McCann). Our proof goes by a careful case by case analysis combined with perturbation arguments from the constant…

This paper concerns the evolution of a closed convex hypersurface in ${\mathbb{R}}^{n+1}$, in direction of its inner unit normal vector, where the speed is given by a smooth function depending only on the mean curvature, and satisfies some…

We prove that Alexandrov's conjecture relating the area and diameter of a convex surface holds for the surface of a general ellipsoid. This is a direct consequence of a more general result which estimates the deviation from the optimal…

The Cayley--Salmon theorem implies the existence of a 27-sheeted covering space specifying lines contained in smooth cubic surfaces over $\mathbb{C}$. In this paper we compute the rational cohomology of the total space of this cover, using…

For a convex body $K\subset\R^n$, the $k$th projection function of $K$ assigns to any $k$-dimensional linear subspace of $\R^n$ the $k$-volume of the orthogonal projection of $K$ to that subspace. Let $K$ and $K_0$ be convex bodies in…

We write down estimates for the surface area, and more generally, integral mean curvatures of an ellipsoid E in n-dimensional Euclidean space in terms of the lengths of the major semi-axes. We give applications to estimating the area of…

We consider surfaces with parallel mean curvature vector field and finite total curvature in product spaces of type $\mathbb{M}^n(c)\times\mathbb{R}$, where $\mathbb{M}^n(c)$ is a space form, and characterize certain of these surfaces. When…

We consider the numerical approximation of surfaces of prescribed Gaussian curvature via the solution of a fully nonlinear partial differential equation of Monge-Amp\`ere type. These surfaces need not be continuous up to the boundary of the…

We prove index estimates for closed and free boundary CMC surfaces in certain $3$-dimensional submanifolds of some Euclidean space. When the mean curvature is large enough we are able to prove that the index of a CMC surface in an arbitrary…

Using combinatorial methods, we derive several formulas for the volume of convex bodies obtained by intersecting a unit hypercube with a halfspace, or with a hyperplane of codimension 1, or with a flat defined by two parallel hyperplanes.…

The tensorial curvature measures are tensor-valued generalizations of the curvature measures of convex bodies. We prove a set of Crofton formulae for such tensorial curvature measures. These formulae express the integral mean of the…

We prove that a strictly stable constant-mean-curvature hypersurface in a smooth manifold of dimension less than or equal to 7 is uniquely homologically area minimizing for fixed volume in a small L^1 neighborhood.

It is proven that any spherically symmetric spacetime that possesses a compact Cauchy surface $\Sigma$ and that satisfies the dominant-energy and non-negative-pressures conditions must have a finite lifetime in the sense that all timelike…
