A cornerstone theorem in the Graph Minors series of Robertson and Seymour is the result that every graph $G$ with no minor isomorphic to a fixed graph $H$ has a certain structure. The structure can then be exploited to deduce far-reaching…

In this paper, we study the geometry of a connected oriented cmc Riemannian hypersurface $M$ of a semi-Riemannian group $G$ of Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$ and index 0 or 1. If $G$ is Riemannian and $M$ is compact and transversal to an element…

We define broadly-pluriminimal immersed 2n-submanifold F: M --> N into a Kaehler-Einstein manifold of complex dimension 2n and scalar curvature R. We prove that, if M is compact, n \geq 2, and R < 0, then: (i) Either F has complex or…

We identify a region $\Bbb{W}_{\f{1}{3}}$ in a Grassmann manifold $\grs{n}{m}$, not covered by a usual matrix coordinate chart, with the following important property. For a complete $n-$submanifold in $\ir{n+m} \, (n\ge 3, m\ge2)$ with…

Minimal surfaces and Einstein manifolds are among the most natural structures in differential geometry. Whilst minimal surfaces are well understood, Einstein manifolds remain far less so. This exposition synthesises together a set of…

We give necessary and sufficient conditions on a smooth local map of a Riemannian manifold $M^m$ into the sphere $S^m$ to be the Gauss map of an isometric immersion $u:M^m \to R^n$, $n=m+1$. We briefly discuss the case of general $n$ as…

For a closed Riemannian manifold $M$ with a compact Lie group $G$ acting by isometries, we show that there are infinitely many $G$-invariant minimal hypersurfaces. Under the assumption that $M$ contains at most a finite number of minimal…

We investigate length decreasing maps $f:M\to N$ between Riemannian manifolds $M$, $N$ of dimensions $m\ge 2$ and $n$, respectively. Assuming that $M$ is compact and $N$ is complete such that…

We prove that if $n$ is even, $(M,g)$ is a compact $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifold whose Pfaffian form is a positive multiple of the volume form, and $y\in C^{1,\alpha}(M;\mathbb{R}^{n+1})$ is an isometric immersion with $n/(n+1)<…
