We investigate the Plateau and isoperimetric problems associated to Fefferman's measure for strongly pseudoconvex real hypersurfaces in $\mathbb C^n$ (focusing on the case $n=2$), showing in particular that the isoperimetric problem shares…

The well known formulas express the curvature and the torsion of a curve in $R^3$ in terms of euclidean invariants of its derivatives. We obtain expressions of this kind for all curvatures of curves in $R^n$. It follows that a curve in…
The $(2k)$-th Gauss-Bonnet curvature is a generalization to higher dimensions of the $(2k)$-dimensional Gauss-Bonnet integrand, it coincides with the usual scalar curvature for $k=1$. The Gauss-Bonnet curvatures are used in theoretical…
We review the properties of the constraint equations, from their geometric origin in hypersurface geometry through to their roles in the Cauchy problem and the Hamiltonian formulation of the Einstein equations. We then review properties of…

We solve the problem of prescribing different types of curvatures (principal, mean or Gaussian) on rotational surfaces in terms of arbitrary continuous functions depending on the distance from the surface to the axis of revolution. In this…
