In this paper we prove some geometric inequalities for closed surfaces in Euclidean three-space. Motivated by Gage's inequality for convex curves, we first verify that for convex surfaces the Willmore energy is bounded below by some…

The author proves that there is an open non empty set of metrics on any 3-manifold such that there exists a family of stably embedded minimal 2-spheres whose area is unbounded. This generalizes the work of T. Colding and W. Minicozzi who…

We prove there exists a compact embedded minimal surface in a complete finite volume hyperbolic $3$-manifold $\mathcal{N}$. We also obtain a least area, incompressible, properly embedded, finite topology, $2$-sided surface. We prove a…

In this paper we prove that among all convex domains of the plane with two axis of symmetry, the maximizer of the first non trivial Neumann eigenvalue $\mu_1$ with perimeter constraint is achieved by the square and the equilateral triangle.…

We prove that given two metrics $g_{+}$ and $g_{-}$ with curvature $\kappa <-1$ on a closed, oriented surface $S$ of genus $\tau\geq 2$, there exists an $AdS$ manifold $N$ with smooth, space-like, strictly convex boundary such that the…

The set of volumes of stable surfaces does have accumulation points. In this paper, we study this phenomenon for surfaces with one cyclic quotient singularity, towards answering the question under which conditions we can still have…

We provide explicit upper bounds for the eigenvalues of the Laplacian on a finite metric tree subject to standard vertex conditions. The results include estimates depending on the average length of the edges or the diameter. In particular,…

We extend the spectral method for proving limit theorems to random non-uniformly expanding dynamical systems. This yields the CLT and moderate deviations principles (MDP). We show that as the amount of non-uniformity decreases the CLT rates…

We consider an initial data set having a continuous symmetry and a marginally outer trapped surface (MOTS) that is not preserved by this symmetry. We show that such a MOTS is unstable except in an exceptional case. In non-rotating cases we…

We give a unified and systematic way to find bounds for the largest real eigenvalue of a nonnegative matrix by considering its modified quotient matrix. We leverage this insight to identify the unique class of matrices whose largest real…

The paper develops a continiuty method for solutions of the Abreu equation, which include extremal metrics on toric surfaces. Results are obtained, assuming a hypothesis (the "M-condition") on the solutions.

For three dimensional complete Riemannian manifolds with scalar curvature no less than one, we obtain the sharp upper bound of complete stable minimal surfaces' diameter.

We establish sufficient conditions for the appearance of apparent horizons in spherically symmetric initial data when spacetime is foliated extrinsically. Let $M$ and $P$ be respectively the total material energy and the total material…

We consider a spectral problem associated with steady water waves of extreme form on the free surface of a rotational flow. It is proved that the spectrum of this problem contains arbitrary large negative eigenvalues and they are simple.…

On a closed Riemannian surface of negative curvature, we prove a characterization for configurations of closed geodesics arising from one parameter Allen-Cahn min-max constructions. One of the facts we conclude is that every geodesic occurs…

In the setting of fractional minimal surfaces, we prove that if two nonlocal minimal sets are one included in the other and share a common boundary point, then they must necessarily coincide. This strict maximum principle is not obvious,…

Let M be a compact manifold with boundary. In this paper, we discuss some rigidity theorems of metrics in a same conformal class that fixes the boundary and satisfy certain integral conditions on the the scalar curvatures and the mean…
