We study the asymptotic Plateau problem in $\mathbb{H}_2\times \mathbb{R}$. We give the first examples of non-fillable finite curves with no thin tail in the asymptotic cylinder. Furthermore, we study the fillability question for infinite…

We solve the classical problem of Plateau in the setting of proper metric spaces. Precisely, we prove that among all disc-type surfaces with prescribed Jordan boundary in a proper metric space there exists an area minimizing disc which…

Let $(M,g)$ be an asymptotically conical Riemannian manifold having dimension $n\ge 2$, opening angle $\alpha \in (0,\pi/2) \setminus \{\arcsin \frac{1}{2k+1}\}_{k \in \mathbb{N}}$ and positive asymptotic rate. Under the assumption that the…

In this paper, we give some examples of area minimizing surfaces to clarify some well-known features of these surfaces in more general settings. The first example is about Meeks-Yau's result on embeddedness of solution to the Plateau…

We prove the existence of a smooth complete $3$-convex hypersurface which satisfies prescribed curvature equation $\prod\limits_{i = 1}^n (H - \kappa_i) = \big( (n - 1) \sigma \big)^n$ for $n = 4$ and has prescribed asymptotic boundary…

We show that for a very general and natural class of curvature functions (for example the curvature quotients $(\sigma_n/\sigma_l)^{\frac{1}{n-l}}$) the problem of finding a complete spacelike strictly convex hypersurface in de Sitter space…

Given a noncompact disconnected complete periodic curve $\Gamma$ with no self intersection in $\mathbb R^3$, it is proved that there exists a noncompact simply connected periodic minimal surface spanning $\Gamma$. As an application it is…

In this paper we prove a general and sharp Asymptotic Theorem for minimal surfaces in $H^2\times R$. As a consequence, we prove that there is no properly immersed minimal surface whose asymptotic boundary $C$ is a Jordan curve homologous to…

We prove that if an asymptotically Schwarzschildean 3-manifold (M,g) contains a properly embedded stable minimal surface, then it is isometric to the Euclidean space. This implies, for instance, that in presence of a positive ADM mass any…

We prove the existence of solutions to the asymptotic Plateau problem for hypersurfaces of prescribed mean curvature in Cartan-Hadamard manifolds $N$. More precisely, given a suitable subset $L$ of the asymptotic boundary of $N$ and a…

In this paper, we consider the asymptotic $\sigma_k$ Plateau problem in hyperbolic space. We establish $C^2$ estimates for semi-convex complete hypersurfaces satisfying constant $\sigma_k$ curvature with a prescribed asymptotic boundary at…

We give a fairly complete solution to the asymptotic Plateau Problem for minimal surfaces in H^2xR. In particular, we identify the collection of finite Jordan curves in the asymptotic cylinder which bounds a minimal surface in H^2xR.

We prove an existence theorem for the sliding boundary variant of the Plateau problem for $2$-dimensional sets in $\mathbb{R}^n$. The simplest case of sufficient condition is when $n=3$ and the boundary $\Gamma$ is a finite disjoint union…

This is a survey of old and recent results about the asymptotic Plateau problem. Our aim is to give a fairly complete picture of the field, and present the current situation.

In this paper, we introduce a functional and a geometric setting for an obstacle problem for nonlocal minimal graphs. In particular we study existence of solutions, a priori estimates, and we prove the equivalence of the two settings. We…

We show that for a very general class of curvature functions defined in the positive cone, the problem of finding a complete strictly locally convex hypersurface in $H^n+1$ satisfying $f(\kappa)=\sigma\in(0, 1)$ with a prescribed asymptotic…

For two disjoint rectifiable star-shaped Jordan curves (including round circles) in the asymptotic boundary of hyperbolic 3-space, if the distance (see Definition 1.8) between these two Jordan curves are bounded from above by some constant,…

Classically, Plateau's problem asks to find a surface of the least area with a given boundary $B$. In this article, we investigate a version of Plateau's problem, where the boundary of an admissible surface is only required to partially…

Motivated by Nirenberg's problem on isometric rigidity of tight surfaces, we study closed asymptotic curves $\Gamma$ on negatively curved surfaces $M$ in Euclidean $3$-space. In particular, using C\u{a}lug\u{a}reanu's theorem, we obtain a…

We study the existence of area-minimizing homotopies between homotopic curves in the plane. While the classical Plateau problem establishes the existence of least-area surfaces spanning a single Jordan curve, the corresponding existence…
