For an immersed minimal surface in $\mathbb{R}^3$, we show that there exists a lower bound on its Morse index that depends on the genus and number of ends, counting multiplicity. This improves, in several ways, an estimate we previously…

In this paper, we study the weak compactness of the set of conformal metrics in any Riemann surface without boundary whose Calabi energy and area are uniformly bounded. We prove that for any sequence of such metrics, there alwasy exists a…

In this paper, we first show that a complete shrinking breather with Ricci curvature bounded from below must be a shrinking gradient Ricci soliton. This result has several applications. First, we can classify all complete $3$-dimensional…

Given an ample line bundle $L$ over a projective $\mathbb{K}$-variety $X$, with $\mathbb{K}$ a non-Archimedean field, we study limits of non-Archimedean metrics on $L$ associated to submultiplicative sequences of norms on the graded pieces…

In the joint work of the author with Da Lio and Rivi\`ere (Morse Index Stability for Sequences of Sacks-Uhlenbeck Maps into a Sphere) we studied the stability of the Morse index for Sacks-Uhlenbeck sequences into spheres as $p\searrow2$.…

In this paper, we study semilinear elliptic equations in domains where there is a natural class of solutions, which depend only on one variable, and whose simple geometry reflects the geometry of the domain. We prove that under quite…

We show that if two gradient Ricci solitons are asymptotic along some end of each to the same regular cone, then the soliton metrics must be isometric on some neighborhoods of infinity of these ends. Our theorem imposes no restrictions on…

In this paper, we investigate classifications of $4$-dimensional simply connected complete noncompact nonflat shrinkers satisfying $Ric+\mathrm{Hess}\,f=\tfrac 12g$ with nonnegative Ricci curvature. One one hand, we show that if the…

We study the Morse index of minimal surfaces with free boundary in a half-space. We improve previous estimates relating the Neumann index to the Dirichlet index and use this to answer a question of Ambrozio, Buzano, Carlotto, and Sharp…

We prove that a shrinking gradient Ricci soliton which agrees to infinite order at spatial infinity with one of the standard cylindrical metrics on $S^k\times \RR^{n-k}$ for $k\geq 2$ along some end must be isometric to the cylinder on that…
