We show that the discrete principal nets in quadrics of constant curvature that have constant mixed area mean curvature can be characterized by the existence of a K\"onigs dual in a concentric quadric.
We study focal surfaces of (wave) fronts associated to unbounded principal curvatures near non-degenerate singular points of initial fronts. We give characterizations of singularities of those focal surfaces in terms of types of…

In this paper, we extend our investigation of the class of biconservative surfaces with non-constant mean curvature in 4-dimensional space forms $N^4(\epsilon)$. Specifically, we focus on biconservative surfaces with non-parallel normalized…
It is shown that explicit B\"{a}cklund transformations (BTs) for the high-order constrained flows of soliton hierarchy can be constructed via their Darboux transformations and Lax representation, and these BTs are canonical transformations…
We investigate basic features of Bianchi's B\"acklund transformation of quadrics to see if it can be obtained under weaker assumptions and if it can be generalized to deformations of other surfaces.
We recall the well-known Chern-Terng theorem concerning affine minimal surfaces. Next we formulate some complementary (with transversal fields necessarily not parallel) affine B\"acklund theorem. We describe some geometrical conditions…
We study constant mean curvature 1/2 surfaces in H2xR that admit a compactification of the mean curvature operator. We show that a particular family of complete entire graphs over H2 admits a structure of infinite dimensional manifold with…
The transition maps for a Sobolev $G$-bundle are not continuous in the critical dimension and thus the usual notion of topology does not make sense. In this work, we show that if such a bundle $P$ is equipped with a Sobolev connection $A$,…
We show that the auto-Backlund transformations of the sine-Gordon, Korteweg-deVries, nonlinear Schrodinger, and Ernst equations are related to their respective CPT symmetries. This is shown by applying the CPT symmetries of these equations…
We classify complete orientable hypersurfaces of constant isotropic curvature in space forms. We show that such a hypersurface has constant mean curvature only if it is an isoparametric hypersurface, and that it is minimal if and only if it…
A couple of applications of B\"acklund transformations in the study of nonlinear evolution equations is here given. Specifically, we are concerned about third order nonlinear evolution equations. Our attention is focussed on one side, on…

We present a general construction of embedded minimal and constant mean curvature surfaces in $\mathbb{S}^n$ and one-phase free boundaries joined by a smooth interpolation by capillary hypersurfaces. This framework recovers all known…
Asymptotic net is an important concept in discrete differential geometry. In this paper, we show that we can associate affine discrete geometric concepts to an arbitrary non-degenerate asymptotic net. These concepts include discrete affine…
