In this paper, we show that the total area of two distinct surfaces with Gaussian curvature equal to 1, which are also conformal to the Euclidean unit disk with the same conformal factor on the boundary, must be at least 4{\pi}. In other…

In this paper, we partially solve Yau' Conjecture of the first eigenvalue of an embedded compact minimal hypersurface of unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^{n+1}(1)$, i.e., Corollary 1.2. In particular, Corollary 1.3 proves that the condition…

We first demonstrate that the area preserving mean curvature flow of hypersurfaces in space forms exists for all time and converges exponentially fast to a round sphere if the integral of the traceless second fundamental form is…

In this paper, we prove that any closed minimal hypersurface $M^4$ in the $5$-dimensional unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^5$ with constant scalar curvature and constant $3$-th mean curvature must be isoparametric. To be precise, $M^4$ is either an…

We study hypersurfaces in the pseudo-Euclidean space $\mathbb{E}^{n+1}_s$, which write as a warped product of a $1$-dimensional base with an $(n-1)$-manifold of constant sectional curvature. We show that either they have constant sectional…

In [5], Colding-Ilmanen-Minicozzi-White showed that within the class of closed smooth self-shrinkers in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, the entropy is uniquely minimized at the round sphere. They conjectured that, for $2\leq n\leq 6$, the round sphere…

It is proved by Brendle in [4] that the equatorial disk $D^k$ has least area among $k$-dimensional free boundary minimal surfaces in the Euclidean ball $B^n$. By comparing the excess of free boundary minimal surfaces with the excess of the…

Let $M^n$ be either a simply connected space form or a rank-one symmetric space of noncompact type. We consider Weingarten hypersurfaces of $M\times\mathbb R$, which are those whose principal curvatures $k_1,\dots ,k_n$ and angle function…

Using min-max theory, we show that in any closed Riemannian manifold of dimension at least 3 and at most 7, there exist infinitely many smoothly embedded closed minimal hypersurfaces. It proves a conjecture of S.-T. Yau. This paper builds…

Let $G$ be a usc decomposition of $S^n$, $H_G$ denote the set of nondegenerate elements and $\pi$ be the natural projection of $S^n$ onto $S^n/G$. Suppose that each point in the decomposition space has arbitrarily small neighborhoods with…

Theoretical background is provided towards the mathematical foundation of the minimum enclosing ball problem. This problem concerns the determination of the unique spherical surface of smallest radius enclosing a given bounded set in the…

In this paper, we study geometry of totally real minimal surfaces in the complex hyperquadric $Q_{N-2}$, and obtain some characterizations of the harmonic sequence generated by these minimal immersions. For totally real flat surfaces that…

Let $\Omega$ be a measurable Euclidean set in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ that is symmetric, i.e. $\Omega=-\Omega$, such that $\Omega\times\mathbb{R}$ has the smallest Gaussian surface area among all measurable symmetric sets of fixed Gaussian volume.…

The classical Minkowski inequality in the Euclidean space provides a lower bound on the total mean curvature of a hypersurface in terms of the surface area, which is optimal on round spheres. In this paper we employ a locally constrained…

In this paper, we consider the problem of finding the hypersurface M^n in the Euclidean (n+1)-space R^{n+1} that satisfies an equation of mean curvature type, called singular minimal hypersurface equation. Such an equation physically…

Tang-Zhang, Choe-Hoppe, showed independently that one can produce minimal submanifolds in spheres via Clifford type minimal product of minimal submanifolds. In this note, we show that the minimal product is immersed by its first…

Bennett, Carbery and Tao considered the $k$-linear restriction estimate in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ and established the near optimal $L^\frac2{k-1}$ estimate under transversality assumptions only. We have shown that the trilinear restriction…

In this paper, we solve the longstanding Gaussian curvature conjecture of a minimal graph $S$ over the unit disk. The conjecture asserts that for any minimal graph above the unit disk, the Gaussian curvature at the point directly above the…

In this note we prove that, if $S_n$ is the greatest area of a rectangle which can be covered with $n$ unit disks, then $2\leq S_n/n<3 \sqrt{3}/2$, and these are the best constants; moreover, for $\Delta(n):=(3\sqrt{3}/2)n-S_n$, we have…

We study spacelike entire constant mean curvature hypersurfaces in Anti-de Sitter space of any dimension. First, we give a classification result with respect to their asymptotic boundary, namely we show that every admissible sphere…
