We give a local analytic characterization that a minimal surface in the 3-sphere $\, \ES^3 \subset \R^4$ defined by an irreducible cubic polynomial is one of the Lawson's minimal tori. This provides an alternative proof of the result by…

The AdS/CFT correspondence relates Wilson loops in N=4 SYM to minimal area surfaces in $AdS_5\times S^5$ space. Recently, a new approach to study minimal area surfaces in $AdS_3 \subset AdS_5$ was discussed based on a Schroedinger equation…

We discuss timelike and spacelike minimal surfaces in $AdS_n$ using a Pohlmeyer type reduction. The differential equations for the reduced system are derived in a parallel treatment of both type of surfaces, with emphasis on their…

The nonlocal $s$-fractional minimal surface equation for $\Sigma= \partial E$ where $E$ is an open set in $R^N$ is given by $$ H_\Sigma^ s (p) := \int_{R^N} \frac {\chi_E(x) - \chi_{E^c}(x)} {|x-p|^{N+s}}\, dx \ =\ 0 \quad \text{for all }…

We define a notion of isotropic surfaces in $\mathbb{O}$, i.e. on which some canonical symplectic forms vanish. Using the cross-product in $\mathbb{O}$ we define a map $\rho\colon Gr\_2(\mathbb{O})\to S^6$ from the Grassmannian of…

Since the work of Ellingsrud and Peskine at the end of 1980s, it has been known that, with the exception of a finite number of families, smooth compact complex surfaces in $\mathbb{P}^4$ with prescribed Chern classes must lie on…

In the present paper we study the Lie sphere geometry of Legendre surfaces by the method of moving frame and we prove an existence theorem for real-analytic Lie-minimal Legendre surfaces.

In this paper, we prove that every confomal minimal immersion of an open Riemann surface into $\mathbb{R}^n$ for $n\ge 5$ can be approximated uniformly on compacts by conformal minimal embeddings. Furthermore, we show that every open…

We study Legendrian surfaces determined by cubic planar graphs. Graphs with distinct chromatic polynomials determine surfaces that are not Legendrian isotopic, thus giving many examples of non-isotopic Legendrian surfaces with the same…

We discuss the birational geometry of singular surfaces in positive characteristic. More precisely, we establish the minimal model program and the abundance theorem for Q-factorial surfaces and for log canonical surfaces. Moreover, in the…

In this paper we will show that a Lagrangian, Lorentzian surface $M^2_1$ in a complex pseudo space form $\widetilde M^2_1 (4c)$ is pseudo-isotropic if and only if $M$ is minimal. Next we will obtain a complete classification of all…

We obtain a Runge approximation theorem for holomorphic Legendrian curves and immersions in the complex projective $3$-space $\mathbb{CP}^3$, both from open and compact Riemann surfaces, and we prove that the space of Legendrian immersions…

Real Legendrian subvarieties are classical objects of differential geometry and classical mechanics and they have been studied since antiquity. However, complex Legendrian subvarieties are much more rigid and have more exceptional…

We classify completely the surfaces of general type whose canonical map is 3-to-1 onto a surface of minimal degree in projective space. These surfaces fall into 5 distinct classes and we give explicit examples belonging to each of these…

We study minimal surfaces in $q$-deformed AdS$_5\times$S$^5$ with a new coordinate system introduced in the previous work 1408.2189. In this letter, we introduce Poincare coordinates for the deformed theory. Then we construct minimal…

We consider the Willmore flow equation for complete, properly immersed surfaces in Rn. Given bounded geometry on the initial surface, we extend the result by Kuwert and Sch\"atzle in 2002 and prove short time existence and uniqueness of the…

We give a topological classification of Lawson's bipolar minimal surfaces corresponding to his $\xi$- and $\eta$-family. Therefrom we deduce upper as well as lower bounds on the area of these surfaces, and find that they are not embedded.

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…

In this note we consider homogeneous Willmore surfaces in $S^{n+2}$. The main result is that a homogeneous Willmore two-sphere is conformally equivalent to a homogeneous minimal two-sphere in $S^{n+2}$, i.e., either a round two-sphere or…

We prove the existence of complete minimal surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$ of arbitrary genus $p\, \ge\, 1$ and least total absolute curvature with precisely two ends -- one catenoidal and one Enneper-type -- thereby solving, affirmatively, a…
