Eight different refinements of trapped surfaces are proposed, of three basic types, each intended as potential stability conditions. Minimal trapped surfaces are strictly minimal with respect to the dual expansion vector. Outer trapped…
This is a preliminary note on a family of minimal surfaces in the 3-sphere defined by a compatible fourth order equation. The minimal surfaces are geometrically characterized either by having a surface of revolution like induced metric, or…
We give necessary and sufficient topological conditions for a simple closed curve on a real rational surface to be approximable by smooth rational curves. We also study approximation by smooth rational curves with given complex…
A class of spiral minimal surfaces in E^3 is constructed using a symmetry reduction. The new surfaces are invariant with respect to the composition of rotation and dilatation. The solutions are obtained in closed form %through the Legendre…
In this paper we present an algorithm to reduce the area of a surface spanned by a finite number of boundary curves by initiating a variational improvement in the surface. The ansatz we suggest consists of original surface plus a…
We discuss how Dokken's methods of approximate implicitization can be applied to triangular B\'ezier surfaces in both the original and weak forms. The matrices $\mathbf{D}$ and $\mathbf{M}$ that are fundamental to the respective forms of…
We study real trigonal curves and elliptic surfaces of type $\I$ (over a base of an arbitrary genus) and their fiberwise equivariant deformations. The principal tool is a real version of Grothendieck's \emph{dessins d'enfants}. We give a…
Schwartz's solution to the Bj\"orling problem leads to an equivalence class of spatial strips S(t)=(c(t),n(t)) which produce equivalent minimal surfaces. For the particular case when the generating strip S(t) belongs to some plane E and…
A very interesting problem in the classical theory of minimal surfaces consists of the classification of such surfaces under some geometrical and topological constraints. In this short paper, we give a brief summary of the known…
We are interested in generating surfaces with arbitrary roughness and forming patterns on the surfaces. Two methods are applied to construct rough surfaces. In the first method, some superposition of wave functions with random frequencies…
A minimal family of curves on an embedded surface is defined as a 1-dimensional family of rational curves of minimal degree, which cover the surface. We classify such minimal families using constructive methods. This allows us to compute…
This paper is about interpolating minimal surfaces between two real analytic curves, a and b, each of which are simple real analytic curves, using the Bj\"{o}rling-Schwarz formula in the domain where it is valid, changing the normal…
Generalized Burniat surfaces are surfaces of general type with $p_g=q$ and Euler number $e=6$ obtained by a variant of Inoue's construction method for the classical Burniat surfaces. I prove a variant of the Bloch conjecture for these…
For each integer m>1 and l>0 we construct a pair of compact embedded minimal surfaces of genus 1+4m(m-1)l. These surfaces desingularize the m Clifford tori meeting each other along a great circle at the angle of \pi/m. They are invariant…
In this paper, we employ the loop group method to study the construction of minimal Lagrangian surfaces in the complex projective plane for which the surface is contractible. We present several new classes of minimal Lagrangian surfaces in…
We prove that given a three manifold with an arbitrary metric $(M^3, g)$ of positive Ricci curvature, there exists a sweepout of $M$ by surfaces of genus $\leq 3$ and areas bounded by $C vol(M^3, g)^{2/3}$. We use this result to construct a…
Special class of surfaces in five-dimensional sphere in $C^3$ is considered. Immersion equations for minimal tori of that class are shown to be reducible to the equation $u_{z\bar z}=e^u-e^{-2u}$ which is integrable by means of inverse…
We develop a numerical method for the computation of a minimal convex and compact set, $\mathcal{B}\subset\mathbb{R}^N$, in the sense of mean width. This minimisation is constrained by the requirement that $\max_{b\in\mathcal{B}}\langle b ,…
Computing a quasi-developable strip surface bounded by design curves finds wide industrial applications. Existing methods compute discrete surfaces composed of developable lines connecting sampling points on input curves which are not…
We study of the shape of a compact singular minimal surface in terms of the geometry of its boundary, asking what type of {\it a priori} information can be obtained on the surface from the knowledge of its boundary. We derive estimates of…
