We obtain a bound for the area of a capillary $H-$surface in a three-manifold with umbilic boundary and controlled sectional curvature. We then analyze the geometry when this area bound is realized, and obtain rigidity theorems. As a side…

Following ideas of Choe and Fernandez-do Carmo, we give sufficient conditions for a disk type surface, with piecewise smooth boundary, to be totally umbilical for a given Coddazi pair. As a consequence, we obtain rigidity results for…

We show that a wide range of overdetermined boundary problems for semilinear equations with position-dependent nonlinearities admits nontrivial solutions. The result holds true both on the Euclidean space and on compact Riemannian…

In this work, we consider static manifolds $M$ with nonempty boundary $\partial M$. In this case, we suppose that the potential $V$ also satisfies an overdetermined Robin type condition on $\partial M$. We prove a rigidity theorem for the…

Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^N$, $N\ge 2$, be an open, connected, bounded set with $C^2$ boundary. In this paper we consider the torsion problem with Robin boundary conditions and we study the symmetry of the solutions when suitable extra…

We prove a topological rigidity theorem for closed hypersurfaces of the Euclidean sphere and of an elliptic space form. It asserts that, under a lower bound hypothesis on the absolute value of the principal curvatures, the hypersurface is…

We prove ``half-space" intersection properties in three settings: the hemisphere, half-geodesic balls in space forms, and certain subsets of Gaussian space. For instance, any two embedded minimal hypersurfaces in the sphere must intersect…

A celebrated theorem of Serrin asserts that one overdetermined condition on the boundary is enough to obtain radial symmetry in the so-called one-phase overdetermined torsion problem. It is also known that imposing just one overdetermined…
