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…

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…

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…
