In the past decades, the authors made some systematic research on global and local properties of Willmore surfaces in terms of the DPW method. In this note we give a survey, mainly including the basic framework of the DPW method for the…

We construct new integrable systems to present Weierstrass type representations for spacelike surfaces whose mean curvature vector $\mathbf{H}$ satisfies the null condition $\langle \mathbf{H}, \mathbf{H} \rangle=0$ in the four dimensional…

We propose the study of a conformally invariant functional for surfaces of complex projective plane which is closely related to the classical Willmore functional. We show that minimal surfaces of complex projective plane are critical for…

Causal fermion systems and Riemannian fermion systems are proposed as a framework for describing non-smooth geometries. In particular, this framework provides a setting for spinors on singular spaces. The underlying topological structures…

The boundary conditions that exclude zeros of the solutions of the Witten equation (and hence guarantee the existence of a 3-frame satisfying the so-called special orthonormal frame gauge conditions) are investigated. We determine the…

We look for Riemann surfaces whose automorphism group acts transitively on the Weierstrass points. We concentrate on hyperelliptic surfaces, surfaces with PSL(2, q) as automorphism group, Platonic surfaces and Fermat curves.

A spinor derivation is presented for quasilocal mean-curvature mass of spacelike 2-surfaces in General Relativity. The derivation is based on the Sen-Witten spinor identity and involves the introduction of novel nonlinear boundary…

We prove that the branching set of a solution to a two-dimensional two-phase Bernoulli problem with constant coefficients is locally finite. We do this via a Weierstrass representation formula, which allows to transform the problem into a…

The paper develops the fundamentals of quaternionic holomorphic curve theory. The holomorphic functions in this theory are conformal maps from a Riemann surface into the 4-sphere, i.e., the quaternionic projective line. Basic results such…

The Cartan's equations definig simple spinors (renamed pure by C. Chevalley) are interpreted as equations of motion in momentum spaces, in a constructive approach in which at each step the dimesions of spinor space are doubled while those…
