Let $(\Sigma,p)$ be a pointed Riemann surface of genus $g\geq 1$. For any integer $k\geq 1$, we parametrize the space of meromorphic quadratic differentials on $\Sigma$ with a pole of order $(k+2)$ at $p$, having a connected critical graph…

We consider a surface embedded in the Euclidean 3-space and fix a tangential vector $v$ at a given point $p$ on the surface. In this paper, we first review a history of the formula obtained by Mannheim, d'Ocagne and Koenderink, which…

In this paper we show that a nonlocal minimal surface which is a graph outside a cylinder is in fact a graph in the whole of the space. As a consequence, in dimension~$3$, we show that the graph is smooth. The proofs rely on convolution…

The maximal graph Dirichlet problem asks whether there exists a spacelike graph, in a semi-Euclidean space, with a given boundary and with mean curvature everywhere zero. We prove the existence of solutions to this problem under certain…

In the 3-dimensional Lorentz-Minkowski space we prove that the sign of the Gaussian curvature of any timelike minimal surface is determined by the degeneracy and the orientations of the two null curves that generate the surface. Moreover,…

We show the existence of a $2$-parameter family of properly Alexandrov-embedded surfaces with constant mean curvature $0\leq H\leq\frac{1}{2}$ in ${\mathbb{H}^2\times\mathbb{R}}$. They are symmetric with respect to a horizontal slice and a…

We use the solution space of a pair of ODEs of at least second order to construct a smooth surface in Euclidean space. We describe when this surface is a proper embedding which is geodesically complete with finite total Gauss curvature. If…

We study the existence of at least one conformal metric of prescribed Gaussian curvature on a closed surface $\Sigma$ admitting conical singularities of orders $\alpha_i$'s at points $p_i$'s. In particular, we are concerned with the case…

The regularity of systolically extremal surfaces is a notoriously difficult problem already discussed by M. Gromov in 1983, who proposed an argument toward the existence of $L^2$-extremizers exploiting the theory of $r$-regularity developed…

We construct a parabolic entire minimal graph $S$ over a finite topology complete Riemannian surface $\Sigma$ of curvature $-1$ and infinite area (thus of non-parabolic conformal type). The vertical projection of this graph yields a…
