In 1959 Buchdahl \cite{Bu} obtained the inequality $2M/R\leq 8/9$ under the assumptions that the energy density is non-increasing outwards and that the pressure is isotropic. Here $M$ is the ADM mass and $R$ the area radius of the boundary…

We formulate and prove the stability statement associated with the spacetime Penrose inequality for $n$-dimensional spherically symmetric, asymptotically flat initial data satisfying the dominant energy condition. We assume that the ADM…

Let $ D$ be a bounded open subset of $\mathbb R^n$ with $|\partial D| < \infty$ and let $x_0 $ be a point of $D$. We introduce a new parameter, that we call Kuran gap of $\partial D$ w.r.t. $x_0$. Roughly speaking, this parameter, denoted…

Given a surface $\Sigma$ in $\mathbb{R}^3$ diffeomorphic to $S^2$, Struwe (Acta Math., 1988) proved that for almost every $H$ below the mean curvature of the smallest sphere enclosing $\Sigma$, there exists a branched immersed disk which…

We give examples of asymptotically flat three-manifolds $(M,g)$ which admit arbitrarily large constant mean curvature spheres that are far away from the center of the manifold. This resolves a question raised by G. Huisken and S.-T. Yau in…

Bubbles and droplets are ubiquitous in many areas of engineering, including microfluidics where they can serve as microreactors for screening of chemical reactions. They are often formed out of a constriction (a microfluidic channel or a…

We consider complete spacelike hypersurfaces with constant mean curvature in the open region of de Sitter space known as the steady state space. We prove that if the hypersurface is bounded away from the infinity of the ambient space, then…

The fluid ball conjecture states that a static perfect fluid space-time is spherically symmetric. In this paper we construct a Robinson's divergence formula for the static perfect fluid space-time. Inspired by this conjecture, a rigidity…

We consider closed immersed hypersurfaces evolving by surface diffusion flow, and perform an analysis based on local and global integral estimates. First we show that a properly immersed stationary (\Delta H \equiv 0) hypersurface in \R^3…

Liebmann's Theorem asserts that a compact, connected, convex surface with constant mean curvature (CMC) in the Euclidean space must be a totally umbilical sphere. In this article we extend Liebmann's result to hypersurfaces with boundary.…

We consider hypersurfaces of products $M\times\mathbb R$ with constant $r$-th mean curvature $H_r\ge 0$ (to be called $H_r$-hypersurfaces), where $M$ is an arbitrary Riemannian $n$-manifold. We develop a general method for constructing…

We show that if a closed surface in $\mathbb{R}^3$ has entropy near to that of the unit two-sphere, then the surface is close to a round two-sphere in the Hausdorff distance.

Chern's conjecture states that a closed minimal hypersurface in the euclidean sphere is isoparametric if it has constant scalar curvature. When the number $g$ of distinct principal curvatures is greater than three, few satisfactory results…

Cox & Jones recently devised and studied an interesting variant of the classical Plateau problem, a variant in which a helical soap film is confined to a cylindrical tube with circular cross-section. Through experiments, numerics, and some…

The present paper considers a homogeneous bubble inside an unbounded polytropic compressible liquid with viscosity. The system is governed by the Navier-Stokes equation with free boundary which is determined by the kinematic and dynamic…

We approach the one-parameter family of rotational constant mean curvature (CMC) spheres of $\mathbb H^n\times\mathbb R$ and $\mathbb S^n\times\mathbb R$ focusing on their stability and isoperimetry properties. We prove that all rotational…

In this paper, we show the fundamental theorems for rotationally symmetric hypersurfaces, and thus, together with the earlier results in [3] and [4], provide a complete classification of umbilic hypersurfaces in the Heisenberg groups…

We prove that the Inverse Mean Curvature Flow of a non-star-shaped, mean-convex embedded sphere in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ with symmetry about an axis and sufficiently long, thick necks exists for all time and homothetically converges to a round…

For a compact spin Riemannian manifold $(M,g^{TM})$ of dimension $n$ such that the associated scalar curvature $k^{TM}$ verifies that $k^{TM}\geqslant n(n-1)$, Llarull's rigidity theorem says that any area-decreasing smooth map $f$ from $M$…
