Let (M,g) be a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary. This paper addresses the Yamabe-type problem of finding a conformal scalar-flat metric on M, which has the boundary as a constant mean curvature hypersurface. When the boundary is…

We develop a regularity and compactness theory for stable capillary minimal hypersurfaces in the half-space $\mathbb{H}^{n+1}$ with contact angle $\theta \in (0,\pi)$ and dimension $n \geq 2$. As a consequence, we obtain the generalized…

We study two families of integral functionals indexed by a real number $p > 0$. One family is defined for 1-dimensional curves in $\R^3$ and the other one is defined for $m$-dimensional manifolds in $\R^n$. These functionals are described…

The compactness phenomenon is one of the featured aspects of structuralism in mathematics. In simple and broad words, a compactness property holds in a structure if a related property is satisfied by sufficiently many substructures of that…

In this paper, we prove a similar result to the fundamental theorem of regular surfaces in classical differential geometry, which extends the classical theorem to the entire class of singular surfaces in Euclidean 3-space known as frontals.…

The problem of finding graph structure of functions commuting with a given function in terms of their functional graphs is considered. Structure of functional graphs of commuting functions is described. The problem is reduced to describing…

In this paper we investigate the nature of stationary points of functionals on the space of Riemannian metrics on a smooth compact manifold. Special cases are spectral invariants associated with Laplace or Dirac operators such as functional…

It is well known that plane curves with the same endpoints are homotopic. An analogous claim for plane curves with the same endpoints and bounded curvature still remains open. In this work we find necessary and sufficient conditions for two…

Imposing some conditions on derivatives of the known functions, using the Fiber Contraction Theorem we prove the existence of $C^1$ solutions of a class of iterative functional equations which involves iterates of the unknown functions and…

We use sequences which depend on two parameters to define families of ultradifferentiable functions which contain Gevrey classes. It is shown that such families are closed under superposition, and therefore inverse closed as well.…

We show that the set of Hilbert functions $P(m)=\chi(mK_\mathcal{F})$ of 2-dimensional foliated canonical models with fixed $K_\mathcal{F}^2$, $K_\mathcal{F} \cdot K_X$ and $i_\mathbb{Q}(\mathcal{F})$ is finite. As a consequence, we deduce…

This doctoral thesis is devoted to the analysis of some minimization problems that involve nonlocal functionals. We are mainly concerned with the $s$-fractional perimeter and its minimizers, the $s$-minimal sets. We investigate the behavior…

We consider in the plane the problem of reconstructing a domain from the normal derivative of its Green's function with pole at a fixed point in the domain. By means of the theory of conformal mappings, we obtain existence, uniqueness,…

We study projective functions. We prove that projective functions generalise lower and upper-semianalytic ones while being stable by composition and difference. We show that the class of projective functions is closed under sums,…

We investigate some connectedness properties of the set of points K(f) where the iterates of an entire function f are bounded. In particular, we describe a class of transcendental entire functions for which an analogue of the…

Functionals involving surface curvature are important across a range of scientific disciplines, and their extrema are representative of physically meaningful objects such as atomic lattices and biomembranes. Inspired in particular by the…

Let $M$ be a compact connected surface with boundary. We prove that the signal condition given by the Gauss-Bonnet theorem is necessary and sufficient for a given smooth function $f$ on $\partial M$ (resp. on $M$) to be geodesic curvature…

We give a sufficient condition, with no restrictions on the mean curvature, under which the conformal method can be used to generate solutions of the vacuum Einstein constraint equations on compact manifolds. The condition requires a…

We apply the local removable singularity theorem for minimal laminations and the local picture theorem on the scale of topology to obtain two descriptive results for certain possibly singular minimal laminations of $\mathbb{R}^3$. These two…

Various theorems on convergence of general space homeomorphisms are proved and, on this basis, theorems on convergence and compactness for classes of the so-called ring $Q$--homeomorphisms are obtained. In particular, it was established by…
