We study constant mean curvature graphs in the Riemannian 3-dimensional Heisenberg spaces ${\cal H}={\cal H}(\tau)$. Each such ${\cal H}$ is the total space of a Riemannian submersion onto the Euclidean plane $\mathbb{R}^2$ with geodesic…

For each $k\geq2$, we construct two families of surfaces with constant mean curvature $H$ for $H\in[0,1/2]$ in $\Sigma(\kappa)\times\R$ where $\kappa+4H^2\leq0$. The surfaces are invariant under $2\pi/k$-rotations about a vertical fiber of…

We study the classification of immersed constant mean curvature (CMC) spheres in the homogeneous Riemannian 3-manifold Sol_3, i.e., the only Thurston 3-dimensional geometry where this problem remains open. Our main result states that, for…

In this paper we generalize the Local Removable Singularity Theorem in [16] for minimal laminations to the case of weak $H$-laminations (with $H\in \mathbb{R}$ constant) in a punctured ball of a Riemannian three-manifold. We also obtain a…

In this paper, we study stable constant mean curvature $H$ surfaces in $\R^3$. We prove that, in such a surface, the distance from a point to the boundary is less that $\pi/(2H)$. This upper-bound is optimal and is extended to stable…

In this paper, firstly, we show the existence of a compact embedded constant mean curvature (CMC) hypersurface $\Sigma_1$ in $\mathbb{S}^{2n}$ of the type $S^{n-1} \times S^{n-1} \times S^{1}$. Moreover, the hypersurface $\Sigma_1$ exhibits…
