Let $\Omega$ be a compact surface with smooth boundary and the geodesic curvature $k_g \ge {c > 0}$ along $\partial \Omega$ for some constant $c \in \mathbb{R}$. We prove that, if the Gaussian curvature satisfies $K \ge -\alpha$ for a…

We develop a numerical method for solving shape optimization of functionals involving Steklov eigenvalues and apply it to the problem of maximization of the $k$-th Steklov eigenvalue, under volume constraint. A similar study in the planar…

We rigorously establish the existence of many free boundary minimal annuli with boundary in a geodesic sphere of $\mathbb{S}^3$. These arise as compact subdomains of a one-parameter family of complete minimal immersions of $\mathbb{R}…
