Let $M$ be a closed hyperbolic $3$-manifold. A homotopy class $[S]$ of surfaces in $M$ is filling if any representative cuts $M$ into components contractible in $M$. We prove that there exist $\epsilon_0, g_0>0$ such that every homotopy…

This paper concerns the global theory of properly embedded spacelike surfaces in three-dimensional Minkowski space in relation to their Gaussian curvature. We prove that every regular domain which is not a wedge is uniquely foliated by…

The aim of this paper is to verify that the study of generic conformally flat hypersurfaces in 4-dimensional space forms is reduced to a surface theory in the standard 3-sphere. The conformal structure of generic conformally flat…

Zero mean curvature surfaces in the simply isotropic 3-space $\mathbb{I}^3$ naturally appear as intermediate geometry between geometry of minimal surfaces in $\mathbb{E}^3$ and that of maximal surfaces in $\mathbb{L}^3$. In this paper, we…

We study 2-dimensional submanifolds of the space ${\mathbb{L}}({\mathbb{H}}^3)$ of oriented geodesics of hyperbolic 3-space, endowed with the canonical neutral K\"ahler structure. Such a surface is Lagrangian iff there exists a surface in…

We show that any complete minimal hypersurface in the five-dimensional hyperbolic space $\mathbb H^5$, endowed with constant scalar curvature and vanishing Gauss-Kronecker curvature, must be totally geodesic. Cheng-Peng [3] recently…

The geometry of minimal surfaces generated by charge 2 Bogomolny monopoles on 3-dimensional Euclidean space is described in terms of the moduli parameter k. We find that the distribution of Gaussian curvature on the surface reflects the…

It is well-known that for a surface in a 3-dimensional real space form the constancy of the mean curvature is equivalent to the harmonicity of the Gauss map. However, this is not true in general for surfaces in an arbitrary 3-dimensional…
