Building on Hitchin's work of the Wess-Zumino-Witten term for harmonic maps into Lie groups, we derive a formula for the enclosed volume of a compact CMC surface $f$ in $\mathbb S^3$ in terms of a holonomy on the Chern-Simons bundle and the…

In homogenous space Sol we study compact surfaces with constant mean curvature and with non-empty boundary. We ask how the geometry of the boundary curve imposes restrictions over all possible configurations that the surface can adopt. We…

We introduce a family of Cauchy integral formulas for slice and slice regular functions on a real associative *-algebra. For each suitable choice of a real vector subspace of the algebra, a different formula is given, in which the domains…

We obtain a Principal Kinematic Formula and a Crofton Formula for surface area measures of convex bodies, both involving linear operators on the vector space of signed measures on the unit sphere $S^{d-1}$. These formulas are related to a…

We consider a compact Riemannian manifold $M$ (possibly with boundary) and $\Sigma \subset M\setminus \partial M$ an interior hypersurface (possibly with boundary). We study observation and control from $\Sigma$ for both the wave and heat…

In Euclidean space, we investigate surfaces whose mean curvature $H$ satisfies the equation $H=\alpha\langle N,\mathbf{x}\rangle+\lambda$, where $N$ is the Gauss map, $\mathbf{x}$ is the position vector and $\alpha$ and $\lambda$ are two…

We derive the gravitational Hamiltonian starting from the Gauss-Bonnet action, keeping track of all surface terms. This is done using the language of orthonormal frames and forms to keep things as tidy as possible. The surface terms in the…

We define the ``volume'' contained by pointed $k$-surfaces, first studied by the author in [9], and we show that this volume is always finite. Likewise, we show that the surface area of a pointed $k$-surface is always finite.
