The Willmore Problem seeks closed surfaces in $\mathbb{S}^3\subset\mathbb{R}^4$ of a given topological type minimizing the squared-mean-curvature energy $W = \int |H_{\mathbb{R}^4}|^2 = area + \int |H_{\mathbb{S}^3}|^2$. The longstanding…
We prove that a certain discrete energy for triangulated surfaces, defined in the spirit of discrete differential geometry, converges to the Willmore energy in the sense of $\Gamma$-convergence. Variants of this discrete energy have been…
Under symmetry breaking, a three-dimensional nodal-line semimetal can turn into a topological insulator or Weyl semimetal, accompanied by the generation of momentum-space Berry curvature. We develop a theory that unifies their circular…
Under the assumption that a solution to the 3D incompressible Euler equations blows up at a time $T_\ast$ and that $T_\ast $ is the first such time, we establish lower bounds on the rate of blow-up of the maximum norm of the vorticity. In…
In their work on a sharp compactness theorem for the Yamabe problem, Khuri, Marques and Schoen apply a refined blow-up analysis (what we call `second order blow-up argument' in this article) to obtain highly accurate approximate solutions…
We consider a non-local Liouville equation corresponding to the prescription of the geodesic curvature on the circle. We build a family of solutions which blow up at a critical point of the harmonic extension of the prescribed curvature…
We investigate the study of smooth irreducible rational curves in $Y_s^r$, a general blowup of $\mathbb{P}^r$ at $s$ general points, whose normal bundle splits as a direct sum of line bundles all of degree $i$, for $i \in \{-1,0,1\}$: we…
We consider a closed Willmore surface properly immersed in ${\R}^m$ (m>2) with square-integrable second fundamental form, and with one point-singularity of finite arbitrary integer order. Using the "conservative" reformulation of the…
We investigate the convergence of phase fields for the Willmore problem away from the support of a limiting measure $\mu$. For this purpose, we introduce a suitable notion of essentially uniform convergence. This mode of convergence is a…
For a singular Liouville equation, it is plausible that a non-simple blowup phenomenon occurs around a quantized singular pole. The presence of complex blowup profiles of bubbling solutions presents substantial challenges in applications.…
One of the major open problems in noncommutative algebraic geometry is the classification of noncommutative projective surfaces (or, slightly more generally, of noetherian connected graded domains of Gelfand-Kirillov dimension 3). In a…
This is the first in a series of papers devoted to the blow up analysis for the quenching phenomena in a parabolic MEMS equation. In this paper, we first give an optimal H\"{o}lder estimate for solutions to this equation by using the blow…
Let $(M,g)$ be a 3-dimensional Riemannian manifold. The goal of the paper it to show that if $P_{0}\in M$ is a non-degenerate critical point of the scalar curvature, then a neighborhood of $P_{0}$ is foliated by area-constrained Willmore…
We consider the semilinear wave equation with subconformal power nonlinearity in two space dimensions. We construct a finite-time blow-up solution with an isolated characteristic blow-up point at the origin, and a blow-up surface which is…
This expository note describes McGehee blow-up \cite{McGehee} in its role as one of the main tools in my recent proof with Rick Moeckel \cite{RM2} that every free homotopy class for the planar three-body problem can be realized by a…
In the minimal surface theory, the Krust theorem asserts that if a minimal surface in the Euclidean 3-space $\mathbb{E}^3$ is the graph of a function over a convex domain, then each surface of its associated family is also a graph. The same…
In the previous paper, the structure of the cut locus was determined for a class of surfaces of revolution homeomorphic to a cylinder. In this paper, we prove the structure theorem of the cut locus for a wider class of surfaces of…
We describe the Ozawa solution to the Davey--Stewartson II equation from the point of view of surface theory by presenting a soliton deformation of surfaces which is ruled by the Ozawa solution. The Ozawa solution blows up at certain moment…
We demonstrate finite-time blow-up in a simple, realistic shell model of the 3D Navier-Stokes equations, equipped with "smooth" (i.e., rapidly decaying in frequency) initial data and forcing. Previously studied models either exhibit a…
Using an analogue of Myers' theorem for minimal surfaces and three dimensional topology, we prove the diameter sphere theorem for Ricci curvature in dimension three and a corresponding eigenvalue pinching theorem. This settles these two…
