In this paper, we investigate the differential geometric properties of lightcone framed surfaces in Lorentz-Minkowski 3-space. In general, a mixed type surface is a connected regular surface with non-empty spacelike and timelike point sets.…

We establish a link between the study of completely integrable systems of partial differential equations and the study of generic submanifolds in C^n. Using the recent developments of Cauchy-Riemann geometry we provide the set of symmetries…
We study surfaces with a constant ratio of principal curvatures in Euclidean and simply isotropic geometries and characterize rotational, channel, ruled, helical, and translational surfaces of this kind under some technical restrictions…
The paper presents a model of lateral phase separation in a two component material surface. The resulting fourth order nonlinear PDE can be seen as a Cahn-Hilliard equation posed on a time-dependent surface. Only elementary tangential…
Floer theory for Lagrangian cobordisms was developed by Biran and Cornea to study the triangulated structure of the derived Fukaya category of monotone symplectic manifolds. This paper explains how to use the language of stops to study…

We give a definition of isoclinic parametric surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^4_2$ and prove that such an isoclinic conformal immersion comes from two holomorphic functions. A Cauchy problem was proposed and solved, namely: construct an isoclinic…

In the present paper, we propose a new discrete surface theory on 3-valent embedded graphs in the 3-dimensional Euclidean space which are not necessarily discretization or approximation of smooth surfaces. The Gauss curvature and the mean…
We investigate the differential geometry and topology of globally hyperbolic four-manifolds $(M,g)$ admitting a parallel real spinor $\varepsilon$. Using the theory of parabolic pairs recently introduced in arXiv:1911.08658 , we first…
The mathematics of a 4-dimensional renormalizable generally covariant lagrangian model (with first order derivatives) is reviewed. The lorentzian CR manifolds are totally real submanifolds of 4(complex)-dimensional complex manifolds…
In our recent works we have used meromorphic differentials on Riemann surfaces all of whose periods are real to study the geometry of the moduli spaces of Riemann surfaces. In this paper we survey the relevant constructions and show how…
We study trapped surfaces from the point of view of local isometric embedding into three-dimensional Riemannian manifolds. When a two-surface is embedded into three-dimensional Euclidean space, the problem of finding all surfaces applicable…
The fact that minimal surfaces in the four-dimensional Euclidean space admit natural parameters implies that any minimal surface is determined uniquely up to a motion by two curvature functions, satisfying a system of two PDE's (the system…
A connected regular surface in Lorentz-Minkowski 3-space is called a mixed type surface if the spacelike, timelike and lightlike point sets are all non-empty. Lightlike points on mixed type surfaces may be regarded as singular points of the…
In this paper we generalize the periodic unfolding method and the notion of two-scale convergence on surfaces of periodic microstructures to locally periodic situations. The methods that we introduce allow us to consider a wide range of…
