In contrast with the 3-dimensional case (cf. \cite{RaMo}), where rotationally symmetric totally geodesic free boundary minimal surfaces have Morse index one; we prove in this work that the Morse index of a free boundary rotationally…

We prove a compactness result for minimal hypersurfaces with bounded index and volume, which can be thought of as an extension of the compactness theorem of Choi-Schoen (Invent. Math. 1985) to higher dimensions.

We prove that the space of free boundary CMC surfaces of bounded topology, bounded area and bounded boundary length is compact in the $C^k$ graphical sense away from a finite set of points. This is a CMC version of a result for minimal…

We prove that for an embedded unstable one-sided minimal hypersurface of the $(n+1)$-dimensional real projective space, the Morse index is at least $n+2$, and this bound is attained by the cubic isoparametric minimal hypersurfaces. We also…

We show some area estimates for stable CMC hypersurfaces immersed in Riemannian manifolds with scalar and sectional curvature bounded from below. In particular, we focus on immersions in three-dimensional Riemannian manifolds. As an…

We show that the space of min-max minimal hypersurfaces is non-compact when the manifold has an analytic metric of positive Ricci curvature and dimension $3\leq n+1\leq 7$. Furthermore, we show that bumpy metrics with positive Ricci…

We verify that an isoperimetric minimizing cluster on a simply connected homogeneous Riemannian manifold with at most one end always has connected boundary. In particular, the boundary of a single-bubble isoperimetric minimizer on such…

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…

We investigate the geometric constraints imposed by low Morse index on minimal surfaces with Y-singularities, focusing on the classification of those with Morse index one. Our rigidity result establishes a partial uniqueness theorem,…

We prove that in a closed manifold of dimension between 3 and 7 with a bumpy metric, the min-max minimal hypersurfaces associated with the volume spectrum introduced by Gromov, Guth, Marques-Neves, are two-sided and have multiplicity one.…

We study min-max theory for area functional among hypersurfaces constrained in a smooth manifold with boundary. A Schoen-Simon-type regularity result is proved for integral varifolds which satisfy a variational inequality and restrict to a…

Let $(M^{n+1},g)$ be a closed Riemannian manifold, $n+1\geq 3$. We will prove that for all $m \in \mathbb{N}$, there exists $c^{*}(m)>0$, which depends on $g$, such that if $0<c<c^{*}(m)$, $(M,g)$ contains at least $m$ many closed $c$-CMC…
