We construct random Morse functions on surfaces by random walk and compute related distributions. We study the space of Morse functions through these random variables. We consider subspaces characterized by the surfaces with boundary…

We prove the multiplicity one theorem for min-max free boundary minimal hypersurfaces in compact manifolds with boundary of dimension between 3 and 7 for generic metrics. To approach this, we develop existence and regularity theory for free…

In this note we propose a min-max theory for embedded hypersurfaces with a fixed boundary and apply it to prove several theorems about the existence of embedded minimal hypersurfaces with a given boundary. A simpler variant of these…

Given two Jordan curves in a Riemannian manifold, a minimal surface of annulus type bounded by these curves is described as the harmonic extension of a critical point of some functional (the Dirichlet integral) in a certain space of…

We provide a probabilistic approach to studying minimal surfaces in three-dimensional Euclidean space. Following a discussion of the basic relationship between Brownian motion on a surface and minimality of the surface, we introduce a way…

In this paper, we prove a generalization of Rado's Theorem, a fundamental result of minimal surface theory, which says that minimal surfaces over a convex domain with graphical boundaries must be disks which are themselves graphical. We…

In this article we present an elementary introduction to the theory of minimal surfaces in Euclidean spaces $\mathbb R^n$ for $n\ge 3$ by using only elementary calculus of functions of several variables at the level of a typical second-year…

It is a well known phenomenon that many classical minimal surfaces in Euclidean space also exist with higher dihedral symmetry. More precisely, these surfaces are solutions to free boundary problems in a wedge bounded by two vertical planes…

In this paper, we propose a new assumption (1.2) that involves a small oscillation and $C^2$ norms for maps from smooth bounded domains into Euclidean spaces. Furthermore, by assuming that the domain has non-negative Ricci curvature, we…

This study presents functional limit theorems for the Euler characteristic of Vietoris-Rips complexes. The points are drawn from a non-homogeneous Poisson process on $\mathbb{R}^d$, and the connectivity radius governing the formation of…

We prove a Morse index theorem for action functionals on paths that are allowed to reflect at a hypersurface (either in the interior or at the boundary of a manifold). Both fixed and periodic boundary conditions are treated.

We consider surfaces which minimize a nonlocal perimeter functional and we discuss their interior regularity and rigidity properties, in a quantitative and qualitative way, and their (perhaps rather surprising) boundary behavior. We present…

We observe that a recent result by Gardiner and Sj\"odin, solving a problem of Kr\'{a}l on subharmonic functions, can be easily generalized to yield a somewhat stronger result. This can be combined with a viscosity technique of ours, which…

We elucidate the geometric background of function-theoretic properties for the Gauss maps of several classes of immersed surfaces in three-dimensional space forms, for example, minimal surfaces in Euclidean three-space, improper affine…

We discuss a special class of solutions to the minimal surface system. These are vector-valued functions that "decrease area" and are natural generalization of scalar functions. After defining area-decreasing maps, we show several classical…

We use minimal area metrics to generate all nonorientable string diagrams. The surfaces in unoriented string theory have nontrivial open curves and nontrivial closed curves whose neighborhoods are either annuli or Mobius strips. We define a…

We prove that a minimal disc in a CAT(0) space is a local embedding away from a finite set of "branch points". On the way we establish several basic properties of minimal surfaces: monotonicity of area densities, density bounds, limit…

We investigate the boundary behavior of holomorphic functions with respect to a family of curves in a domain of finite type. This work is a generalization of \u{C}irka's classical result on the unit ball and it supplements the result by…

We show that there is a system of 14 non-trivial finitary functions on the random graph with the following properties: Any non-trivial function on the random graph generates one of the functions of this system by means of composition with…

We study framed surfaces, which are a class of Euclidean minimal and hyperbolic CMC-1 surfaces that generalize immersed minimal surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$ and Bryant surfaces. For this class we prove a lower bound on the (unrestricted)…
