In this note, we revisit the problem of the pressure-driven transport of a meniscus through a narrow cylindrical capillary or pore. This generic process finds many applications in science and technology. As it is known that Direct Numerical…

Here we perform a systematic analysis of equilibrium solutions for Neel and Bloch skyrmions on a cylindrical shell and demonstrate that both experience curvature-induced deformation. Considering the curvature as a small perturbation and…

We propose a natural definition of the weighted $\sigma_k$-curvature for a manifold with density; i.e.\ a triple $(M^n,g,e^{-\phi}\mathrm{dvol})$. This definition is intended to capture the key properties of the $\sigma_k$-curvatures in…

The Schoen--Simon--Yau (SSY) curvature estimate reduces the Bernstein problem for complete stable minimal graphs in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ to an integral estimate whose final step traditionally relies on Young's inequality. This note shows that…

We study a variant of the mean curvature flow for closed, convex hypersurfaces where the normal velocity is a nonhomogeneous function of the principal curvatures. We show that if the initial hypersurface satisfies a certain pinching…
