We show that the mean curvature flow of generic closed surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^{3}$ avoids asymptotically conical and non-spherical compact singularities. We also show that the mean curvature flow of generic closed low-entropy hypersurfaces…
We derive formulas for the mean curvature of associative 3-folds, coassociative 4-folds, and Cayley 4-folds in the general case where the ambient space has intrinsic torsion. Consequently, we are able to characterize those G2-structures…

Spacelike surfaces in the Lorentz-Minkowski space L^3 can be endowed with two different Riemannian metrics, the metric inherited from L^3 and the one induced by the Euclidean metric of R^3. It is well known that the only surfaces with zero…
We give a relationship that yields an effective geometric way of evaluating mean curvature of surfaces. The approach is reminiscent of the Gauss's contour based evaluation of intrinsic curvature. The presented formula may have a number of…
Finite topology self translating surfaces to mean curvature flow of surfaces constitute a key element for the analysis of Type II singularities from a compact surface, since they arise in a limit after suitable blow-up scalings around the…
This paper presents results on the extent to which mean curvature data can be used to determine a surface in space or its shape. The emphasis is on Bonnet's problem: classify and study the surface immersions in $\R^3$ whose shape is not…

Our results concern geometry of a manifold endowed with a pair of complementary orthogonal distributions (plane fields) and a time-dependent Riemannian metric. The work begins with formulae concerning deformations of geometric quantities as…
We develop a global theory for complete hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ whose mean curvature is given as a prescribed function of its Gauss map. This theory extends the usual one of constant mean curvature hypersurfaces in…
Given a singular Riemannian foliation on a compact Riemannian manifold, we study the mean curvature flow equation with a regular leaf as initial datum. We prove that if the leaves are compact and the mean curvature vector field is basic,…
This paper concerns the global theory of properly embedded spacelike surfaces in three-dimensional Minkowski space in relation to their Gaussian curvature. We prove that every regular domain which is not a wedge is uniquely foliated by…
In Euclidean space, we investigate surfaces whose mean curvature $H$ satisfies the equation $H=\alpha\langle N,\mathbf{x}\rangle+\lambda$, where $N$ is the Gauss map, $\mathbf{x}$ is the position vector and $\alpha$ and $\lambda$ are two…
This work investigates some global questions about cosmological spacetimes with two dimensional spherical, plane and hyperbolic symmetry containing matter. The result is, that these spacetimes admit a global foliation by prescribed mean…
In this article, we give the integrability conditions for the existence of an isometric immersion from an orientable simply connected surface having prescribed Gauss map and positive extrinsic curvature into some unimodular Lie groups. In…
We prove that, given $|H|<1$, a generic simple closed curve embedded in the asymptotic boundary of $\mathbb{H}^3$ (with respect to the supremum metric) bounds more than one complete surface embedded in $\mathbb{H}^3$ which has constant mean…

We survey our recent results on classifying complete constant mean curvature 1 (CMC-1) surfaces in hyperbolic 3-space with low total curvature. There are two natural notions of "total curvature"-- one is the total absolute curvature which…
