This article proves that if M is a smooth manifold of dimension at least four, then for generic choice of metric on M, all prime parametrized minimal surfaces in M are free of branch points and lie on nondegenerate critical submanifolds for…

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…

In this short note, we prove that all geodesically convex functions defined on a Riemannian manifold are continuous in the interior of their domain. This is a folklore result, but to the best of our knowledge, there is only one available…

Let $G$ be a finite group acting on a connected compact surface $\Sigma$, and $M$ be an integer homology 3-sphere. We show that if each element of $G$ is extendable over $M$ with respect to a fixed embedding $\Sigma\rightarrow M$, then $G$…

We consider the moduli space $\mathfrak{M}_{g,n}$ of Riemann surfaces of genus $g\ge0$ with $n\ge1$ ordered and directed marked points. For $d\ge 2g+n-1$ we show that $\mathfrak{M}_{g,n}$ is homotopy equivalent to a component of the…

A Riemann surface $M$ is said to be $K$-quasiconformally homogeneous if for every two points $p,q \in M$, there exists a $K$-quasiconformal homeomorphism $f \colon M \rightarrow M$ such that $f(p) = q$. In this paper, we show there exists a…

If M is a closed simple 3-manifold whose fundamental group contains a genus-g surface group for some g>1, and if the dimension of H_1(M;Z_2) is at least max(3g-1,6), we show that M contains a closed, incompressible surface of genus at most…
