This is a continuation of the paper 'Symmetry breaking and other phenomena in the optimization of eigenvalues for composite membranes' by S. Chanillo, D. Grieser, M. Imai, K. Kurata, and I. Ohnishi. Again, we consider the following…
We prove existence and regularity of metrics on a surface with boundary which maximize sigma_1 L where sigma_1 is the first nonzero Steklov eigenvalue and L the boundary length. We show that such metrics arise as the induced metrics on free…
Let $\Sigma$ be a compact immersed stable capillary hypersurface in a wedge bounded by two hyperplanes in $\mathbb R^{n+1}$. Suppose that $\Sigma$ meets those two hyperplanes in constant contact angles and is disjoint from the edge of the…
In this paper, we study complete minimal surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^4$ with three embedded planar ends parallel to those of the union of the Lagrangian catenoid and the plane passing through its waist circle. We show that any complete,…
This paper proves that classical minimal surfaces of arbitrary topological type with total boundary curvature at most 4\pi must be smoothly embedded. Related results are proved for varifolds and for soap film surfaces.
For each integer $k \geq 2$, we apply gluing methods to construct sequences of minimal surfaces embedded in the round $3$-sphere. We produce two types of sequences, all desingularizing collections of intersecting Clifford tori. Sequences of…
We investigate a variational problem in the Lorentz-Minkowski space $\l^3$ whose critical points are spacelike surfaces with constant mean curvature and making constant contact angle with a given support surface along its common boundary.…
We study compactly free boundary minimal submanifolds in spherical caps $\Br$ and their geometric spectral properties. Following the foundational work of Fraser-Schoen \cite{FS2012}, Lima-Menezes \cite{LM23} established the connection…
Harmonic mappings have long intrigued researchers due to their intrinsic connection with minimal surfaces. In this paper, we investigate shearing of two distinct classes of univalent conformal mappings which are convex in horizontal…
In this paper we consider an inverse problem of determining a minimal surface embedded in a Riemannian manifold. We show under a topological condition that if $\Sigma$ is a $2$-dimensional embedded minimal surface, then the knowledge of the…
Timelike minimal surfaces in the three-dimensional Lorentzian Heisenberg group are shown to be constructed from Lorentzian harmonic maps into the de-Sitter two-sphere, and they naturally admit singular points. In particular, we provide…
We prove that the area of a free boundary minimal surface $\Sigma^2 \subset B^n$, where $B^n$ is a geodesic ball contained in a round hemisphere $\mathbb{S}^n_+$, is at least as big as that of a geodesic disk with the same radius as $B^n$;…
Given a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary, we prove that the limit of a sequence of embedded, almost properly embedded free boundary minimal hypersurfaces, with uniform area and Morse index upper bound, always inherits a non-trivial…
Let $\mathbb{M}^{2}$ be a complete non compact orientable surface of non negative curvature. We prove in this paper some theorems involving parabolicity of minimal surfaces in $\mathbb{M}^{2}\times\mathbb{R}$. First, using a…
We show that there exists a metric with positive scalar curvature on S2xS1 and a sequence of embedded minimal cylinders that converges to a minimal lamination that, in a neighborhood of a strictly stable 2-sphere, is smooth except at two…
We consider minimal hypersurfaces inside the unit ball whose boundary on the sphere is a small perturbation of the link of a minimizing quadratic cone. We show that such minimal surfaces are uniquely determined by their boundary condition.…
In this paper we consider a weakly coupled $p$-Laplacian system of a Bernoulli type free boundary problem, through minimization of a corresponding functional. We prove various properties of any local minimizer and the corresponding free…

This paper is concerned with the study of the behavior of the free boundary for a class of solutions to a one-phase Bernoulli free boundary problem with mixed periodic-Dirichlet boundary conditions. It is shown that if the free boundary of…
We study minimal surfaces in generic sub-Riemannian manifolds with sub-Riemannian structures of co-rank one. These surfaces can be defined as the critical points of the so-called {\it horizontal} area functional associated to the canonical…
