We give a general criterion for the Dirichlet problem at infinity (DPI) on a Cartan-Hadamard surface to be solvable, which we primarily use to give the best possible upper radial radial curvature bound for solvability of the DPI, but which…

Any surface is completely characterized by a metric and a symmetric tensor satisfying the Gauss-Codazzi-Mainardi equations (GCM), which identifies the latter as its curvature. We demonstrate that physical questions relating to a surface…

For a surface immersed in a three-dimensional space endowed with a norm instead of an inner product, one can define analogous concepts of curvature and metric. With these concepts in mind, various questions immediately appear. The aim of…
