We consider the generalized Korteweg-de Vries (gKdV) equation $\partial_t u+\partial_x^3u+\mu\partial_x(u^{k+1})=0$, where $k>4$ is an integer number and $\mu=\pm1$. We give an alternative proof of the Kenig, Ponce, and Vega result in…

In this paper we develop an abstract theory for the Codazzi equation on surfaces, and use it as an analytic tool to derive new global results for surfaces in the space forms ${\bb R}^3$, ${\bb S}^3$ and ${\bb H}^3$. We give essentially…
Weingarten surfaces are those whose principal curvatures satisfy a functional relation, whose set of solutions is called the curvature diagram or the W-diagram of the surface. Making use of the notion of geometric linear momentum of a plane…
We construct a deformation quantized version (ncKdV) of the KdV equation which possesses an infinite set of conserved densities. Solutions of the ncKdV are obtained from solutions of the KdV equation via a kind of Seiberg-Witten map. The…
We present a method to construct a large family of Lagrangian surfaces in complex Euclidean plane by using Legendre curves in the 3-sphere and in the anti de Sitter 3-space or, equivalently, by using spherical and hyperbolic curves,…

We establish a smoothing result for the generalized KdV (gKdV) on the torus with polynomial non-linearity, damping, and forcing that matches the smoothing level for the gKdV at $H^1$. As a consequence, we establish the existence of a global…
In this paper, we consider the orthogonal projection of a surface in $\mathbb{R}^3$ for a given view direction. We then introduce and investigate several invariants of the families of the plane curves that locally configure the projection…
Generalized Weierstrass representations for generic surfaces conformally immersed into four-dimensional Euclidean and pseudo-Euclidean spaces of different signatures are presented. Integrable deformations of surfaces in these spaces…
We find two natural spherical functors associated to the Kummer surface and analyse how their induced twists fit with Bridgeland's conjecture on the derived autoequivalence group of a complex algebraic K3 surface.
