We continue the study of Confined Vortex Surfaces (\CVS{}) that we introduced in the previous paper. We classify the solutions of the \CVS{} equation and find the analytical formula for the velocity field for arbitrary background strain…
In this paper, we study the curvature properties of random complex plane curves. We bound from below the probability that a uniform proportion of the area of a random complex degree $d$ plane curve has a curvature smaller than $-d/8$. Our…
The notion of Nonlocal Mean Curvature (NMC) appears recently in the mathematics literature. It is an extrinsic geometric quantity that is invariant under global reparameterization of a surface and provide a natural extension of the…
Consider the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^3$ endowed with a canonical semi-symmetric non-metric connection determined by a vector field $\mathsf{C}\in\mathfrak{X}(\mathbb{R}^3)$. We study surfaces when the sectional curvature with respect to…
We consider convex, spacelike hypersurfaces with boundaries on some hyperboloid (or lightcone) in the Minkowski space. If the hypersurface has constant higher order mean curvature, and the angle between the normal vectors of the…
We prove sharp lower bounds for the charged Hawking mass of stable surfaces in electrostatic space-times in various contexts. An upper bound for the genus of stable surfaces in the electrostatic system is provided. We also study the…
A pair of Direct Numerical Simulations is used to investigate curvature and pressure effects. One has a Gaussian test bump and a straight opposite wall, while the other has a straight test wall and a blowing/suction distribution on an…
A longstanding avenue of research in orientable surface topology is to create and enumerate collections of curves in surfaces with certain intersection properties. We look for similar collections of curves in non-orientable surfaces. A…
We derive constraints on the existence of walls for Bridgeland stability conditions for general projective surfaces. We show that in suitable planes of stability conditions the walls are bounded and derive conditions for when the number of…
The purposes of this article are threefold. First, to determine numerically when an arbitrary blowup of a smooth surface is smooth. We show the surface is smooth if and only if certain rational parameters involving log discrepancy and…
The following conjecture arose out of discussions between B. Harbourne, J. Ro\'e, C. Cilberto and R. Miranda: for a smooth projective surface $X$ there exists a positive constant $c_X$ such that $h^1(\mathcal O_X(C))\le c_X h^0(\mathcal…
In homogenous space Sol we study compact surfaces with constant mean curvature and with non-empty boundary. We ask how the geometry of the boundary curve imposes restrictions over all possible configurations that the surface can adopt. We…
We develop a new boundary condition for the weak inverse mean curvature flow, which gives canonical and non-trivial solutions in bounded domains. Roughly speaking, the boundary of the domain serves as an outer obstacle, and the evolving…
A model describing cell membranes as optimal shapes with regard to the $L^2$-deficit of their mean curvature to a given constant called spontaneous curvature is considered. It is shown that the corresponding energy functional is lower…
We consider hypersurfaces in the real Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ ($n\geq2$) which are relatively normalized. We give necessary and sufficient conditions a) for a surface of negative Gaussian curvature in $\mathbb{R}^3$ to be ruled,…
This article contains a generalization of the authors' results on numbers of nodal points of eigenfunctions on "good curves" in analytic plane domains (arXiv:0710.0101). The term `good' means that the $L^2$ norms of restrictions of…
The canonical degree $C.K_X$ of an integral curve on a smooth projective surface $X$ is conjecturally bounded from above by an expression of the form $A(g-1)+B$, where $g$ is the geometric genus of $C$ and $A$, $B$ are constants depending…
We give an effective iterative characterization of the classes of (smooth, rational) (-1)-curves on the blowup of the projective plane at general points. Such classes are characterized as having self-intersection -1, arithmetic genus 0, and…
The classical Whitney formula relates the number of times an oriented plane curve cuts itself to its rotation number and the index of a base point. In this paper we generalize Whitney's formula to curves on an oriented punctured surface. To…
