We construct non-flat minimal capillary cones with bi-orthogonal symmetry groups for any dimension and contact angle. These cones interpolate between rescalings of a singular solution to the one-phase problem and the free-boundary cone…

For every $p,q\geq 1$, we construct minimal embeddings of $\mathbb{S}^p \times \mathbb{S}^q \times \mathbb{S}^1$ in $\mathbb{S}^{p + q + 2}$ by doubling the links of free-boundary minimal cones in $\mathbb{R}^{p+q+3}$ with bi-orthogonal…

We show that for a generic $8$-dimensional Riemannian manifold with positive Ricci curvature, there exists a smooth minimal hypersurface. Without the curvature condition, we show that for a dense set of 8-dimensional Riemannian metrics…

We develop minimal slicing via capillary hypersurfaces to understand positive scalar curvature metric on manifolds with boundary. The method provides rigidity statements once the regularity of minimizers of capillary area functional holds.…

In this paper, we consider the $L_p$ dual Minkowski problem for capillary hypersurfaces for $p>q$ and $q\leq 1$, which aims to find a capillary convex body with a prescribed capillary $(p,q)$-th dual curvature measure in the Euclidean…

We study stable immersed capillary hypersurfaces $\Sigma$ in domains B of R n+1 bounded by hyperplanes. When B is a half-space, we show $\Sigma$ is a spherical cap. When B is a domain bounded by k hyperplanes P 1 ,. .. , P k , 2 $\le$ k…

Locally stable minimal hypersurface could have singularities in dimension $\geq 7$ in general, locally modeled on stable and area-minimizing cones in the Euclidean spaces. In this paper, we present different aspects of how these…

The result of Guan and Ma (Invent. Math. 151 (2003)) states that if $\phi^{-1/k} : \mathbb{S}^n \to (0,\infty)$ is spherically convex, then $\phi$ arises as the $\sigma_k$ curvature (the $k$-th elementary symmetric function of the principal…

We prove that area-minimizing hypersurfaces are generically smooth in ambient dimension $11$ in the context of the Plateau problem and of area minimization in integral homology. For higher ambient dimensions, $n+1 \geq 12$, we prove in the…

Previous work of the authors established the rigorous limiting behavior of minimizing capillary surfaces to minimizers of the Alt--Caffarelli functional as the capillary angle tends to zero. We prove here that in this limit, the capillary…

We study the isoperimetric problem for capillary hypersurfaces with a general contact angle $\theta \in (0, \pi)$, outside arbitrary convex sets. We prove that the capillary energy of any surface supported on any such convex set is larger…
