We prove the equality case of the Penrose inequality in all dimensions for asymptotically flat hypersurfaces. It was recently proven by G. Lam that the Penrose inequality holds for asymptotically flat graphical hypersurfaces in Euclidean…

A timelike minimal surface in Minkowski 3-space is a surface whose induced metric is Lorentzian and with vanishing mean curvature. Such surfaces have many kinds of singularities. In this paper, we prove existence and non-existence theorems…

This paper deals with finding surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$ which are as close as possible to being flat and span a given contour such that the contour is a geodesic on the sought surface. We look for a surface which minimizes the total…

For all open Riemann surface M and real number $\theta \in (0,\pi/4),$ we construct a conformal minimal immersion $X=(X_1,X_2,X_3):M \to \mathbb{R}^3$ such that $X_3+\tan(\theta) |X_1|:M \to \mathbb{R}$ is positive and proper. Furthermore,…

We consider the question of existence of embedded doubly periodic minimal surfaces in Euclidean 3-space with Scherk-type ends, surfaces that topologically are Scherk's doubly periodic surface with handles added in various ways. We extend…

E. Calabi and J. Cao showed that a closed geodesic of least length in a two-sphere with nonnegative curvature is always simple. Using min-max theory, we prove that for some higher dimensions, this result holds without assumptions on the…

We show that a hyperbolic three-manifold $M$ containing a closed minimal surface with principal curvatures in $[-1,1]$ also contains nearby (non-minimal) surfaces with principal curvatures in $(-1,1)$. When $M$ is complete and homeomorphic…

We show that to every maximal surface with conelike singularities in Lorentz-Minkowski space $\mathbb{L}^3$ that can be locally represented as the graph of a smooth function, there exists a corresponding timelike minimal surface in…

In finite-dimensions, minimal surfaces that fill in the space delineated by closed curves and have minimal area arose naturally in classical physics in several contexts. No such concept seems readily available in infinite dimensions. The…

Minimal surfaces with uniform curvature (or area) bounds have been well understood and the regularity theory is complete, yet essentially nothing was known without such bounds. We discuss here the theory of embedded (i.e., without…

The Chern-minimal surfaces in Hermitian surface play a similar role as minimal surfaces in K\"ahler surface (see \cite{[PX-21]}) from the viewpoint of submanifolds. This paper studies the compactness of Chern-minimal surfaces. We prove that…
