Let $S$ be a closed surface of genus $g \geq 2$ and let $\rho$ be a maximal $\mathrm{PSL}(2, \mathbb{R}) \times \mathrm{PSL}(2, \mathbb{R})$ surface group representation. By a result of Schoen, there is a unique $\rho$-equivariant minimal…
The Weierstrass representation for minimal surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$ provides a flexible method for constructing minimal surfaces of arbitrary genus. The topological limitations of minimal surfaces interfere with this providing a more…
We prove a version of the Schwarz lemma for holomorphic mappings from the unit disk into the symmetric product of a Riemann surface. Our proof is function-theoretic and self-contained. The main novelty in our proof is the use of the…
We define the "sum of squares of the wavelengths" of a Riemannian surface (M,g) to be the regularized trace of the inverse of the Laplacian. We normalize by scaling and adding a constant, to obtain a "mass", which is scale invariant and…
We construct sense-preserving univalent harmonic mappings which map the unit disk onto a domain which is convex in the horizontal direction, but with varying dilatation. Also, we obtain minimal surfaces associated with such harmonic…
We prove a Schwarz-type lemma for noncompact manifolds with possibly noncompact boundary. The result is a consequence of a suitable form of the weak maximum principle of independent interest. The paper is enriched with applications to…
We obtain a unified theory of discrete minimal surfaces based on discrete holomorphic quadratic differentials via a Weierstrass representation. Our discrete holomorphic quadratic differential are invariant under M\"{o}bius transformations.…
A discrete harmonic surface is a trivalent graph which satisfies the balancing condition in the 3-dimensional Euclidean space and achieves energy minimizing under local deformations. Given a topological trivalent graph, a holomorphic…
We prove the following generalization of Schwarz lemma for harmonic mappings. If $u$ is a harmonic mapping of the unit ball $B_n$ onto itself such that $u(0)=0$ and $\|u\|_p:=\left(\int_S|u(\eta)|^pd\sigma(\eta)\right)^{1/p}<\infty$, $p\ge…
The aim of this paper is twofold. First, we obtain a Schwarz-Pick type lemma for the $\alpha$-harmonic mapping $u=P_{\alpha}[\phi]$, where $\phi\in L^{p}(\mathbb{S}^{n-1},\mathbb{R} )$ and $p\in[1,\infty]$. We get an explicit form of the…
In 1974, Federer proved that all area-minimizing hypersurfaces on orientable manifolds were calibrated by weakly closed differential forms. However, in this manuscript, we prove the contrary in higher codimensions: calibrated…
We will investigate the local geometry of the surfaces in the $7$-dimensional Euclidean space associated to harmonic maps from a Riemann surface $\Sigma$ into $S^6$. By applying methods based on the use of harmonic sequences, we will…
We give a proof of the classical Schwarz reflection principle for Jenkins-Serrin type minimal surfaces in the homogeneous three manifolds $E(\kappa, \tau)$ for $\kappa \leqslant 0$ and $\tau \geqslant 0$. In our previous paper we proved a…
Let $\tilde{\Sigma}$ be the universal cover of a closed surface $\Sigma$ of genus at least $2$. We characterize all equivariantly area-minimizing maps from $\tilde{\Sigma}$ to a Hilbert sphere, which are equivariant with respect to an…
A number of classical results reflect the fact that if a holomorphic function maps the unit disk into itself taking the origin into the origin, and if some boundary point $b$ maps to the boundary, then the map is a magnification at $b$. We…
We prove sharp $L^2$ Fourier restriction inequalities for compact, smooth surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$ equipped with the affine surface measure or a power thereof. The results are valid for all smooth surfaces and the bounds are uniform for…
The purpose of this paper is to study the properties of the solutions to the biharmonic equations: $\Delta(\Delta f)=g$, where $g:$ $\overline{\mathbb{D}}\rightarrow\mathbb{C}$ is a continuous function and $\overline{\mathbb{D}}$ denotes…
We prove a sharp Schwarz-type lemma for meromorphic functions with spherical derivative uniformly bounded away from zero. As a consequence we deduce an improved quantitative version of a recent normality criterion due to Grahl & Nevo and…
Consider the straightening phi of a Beltrami form that is constant on a square, with the corresponding ellipses having a vertical major axis, and null outside. A generalized Schwarz-Christoffel formula is used to express the inverse of phi.…
We develop a fully explicit framework for constructing Scherk-type minimal graphs over the Pitot quadrilaterals (i.e. such that the two pairs of opposite sides have the same total length). For any Pitot quadrilateral \(Q\), we first produce…
