We study unknottedness for free boundary minimal surfaces in a three-dimensional Riemannian manifold with nonnegative Ricci curvature and strictly convex boundary, and for self-shrinkers in the three-dimensional Euclidean space. For doing…

Minimal surfaces in the Riemannian product of surfaces of constant curvature have been considered recently, particularly as these products arise as spaces of oriented geodesics of 3-dimensional space-forms. This papers considers more…

Laurent Hauswirth and Harold Rosenberg developed the theory of minimal surfaces with finite total curvature in $\H^2\times\R$. They showed that the total curvature of one such a surface must be a non-negative integer multiple of $-2\pi$.…

We classify (spacelike or timelike) surfaces of revolution with zero $f$-mean curvature in $\Bbb G^2\times\Bbb R_1,$ the Lorentz-Minkowski 3-space $\Bbb R^3_1$ endowed with the Gaussian-Euclidean density $e^{-f(x,y,z)}=\frac…

The main topic of this paper is to show that in the 3-dimensional Minkowski spacetime, the torsion of a null curve is equal to the Schwarzian derivative of a certain function appearing in a description of the curve. As applications, we…

We discuss timelike and spacelike minimal surfaces in $AdS_n$ using a Pohlmeyer type reduction. The differential equations for the reduced system are derived in a parallel treatment of both type of surfaces, with emphasis on their…

We show that to every maximal surface with conelike singularities in Lorentz-Minkowski space $\mathbb{L}^3$ that can be locally represented as the graph of a smooth function, there exists a corresponding timelike minimal surface in…

In this paper, we consider minimal hypersurfaces in the product space $\mathbb{H}^n \times \mathbb{R}$. We begin by studying examples of rotation hypersurfaces and hypersurfaces invariant under hyperbolic translations. We then consider…

In Euclidean $3$-space, it is well known that the Sine-Gordon equation was considered in the nineteenth century in the course of investigations of surfaces of constant Gaussian curvature $K=-1$. Such a surface can be constructed from a…

We study manifolds with split-complex structure and apply some general results to the study of Lorentz surfaces. In particular, we apply our results to timelike minimal immersions. The conformal realization of these surfaces is obtained…

This paper examines minimal hypersurfaces in sub-Riemannian Heisenberg groups. We extend the celebrated Simons formula and Kato inequality to the sub-Riemannian setting, and we apply them to obtain integral curvature estimates for stable…

Inspired by the Weierstrass representation of smooth affine minimal surfaces with indefinite metric, we propose a constructive process producing a large class of discrete surfaces that we call discrete affine minimal surfaces. We show that…

Is it possible to obtain unbounded minimal surfaces in certain asymptotically flat 3-manifolds as a limit of solutions to a natural mountain pass problem with diverging boundaries? In this work, we give evidence that this might be true by…
