We construct three kinds of complete embedded minimal surfaces in $\Bbb H^2\times \Bbb R$. The first is a simply connected, singly periodic, infinite total curvature surface. The second is an annular finite total curvature surface. These…

We construct the first examples of complete, properly embedded minimal surfaces in $\mathbb{H}^2 \times \mathbb{R}$ with finite total curvature and positive genus. These are constructed by gluing copies of horizontal catenoids or other…

We show the existence of 1-parameter families of non-periodic, complete, embedded minimal surfaces in euclidean space with infinitely many parallel planar ends. In particular we are able to produce finite genus examples and quasi-periodic…

Laurent Hauswirth and Harold Rosenberg developed the theory of minimal surfaces with finite total curvature in $\H^2\times\R$. They showed that the total curvature of one such a surface must be a non-negative integer multiple of $-2\pi$.…

We add two new 1-parameter families to the short list of known embedded triply periodic minimal surfaces of genus 4 in $\mathbb{R}^3$. Both surfaces can be tiled by minimal pentagons with two straight segments and three planar symmetry…

In this paper, we study complete minimal surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^4$ with three embedded planar ends parallel to those of the union of the Lagrangian catenoid and the plane passing through its waist circle. We show that any complete,…

Surfaces of finite geometric type are complete, immersed into the tree-dimensional Euclidean space with finite total curvature and Gauss map extending to an oriented compact surface as a smooth branched covering map over the unit sphere of…

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…

In this paper we prove that a complete minimal surface immersed in H^2xR, with finite total curvature and two ends, each one asymptotic to a vertical geodesic plane, must be a horizontal catenoid. Moreover, we give a geometric description…

Using Traizet's regeneration method, we prove the existence of many new 3-dimensional families of embedded, doubly periodic minimal surfaces. All these families have a foliation of 3-dimensional Euclidean space by vertical planes as a…

We study the topology of (properly) immersed complete minimal surfaces $P^2$ in Hyperbolic and Euclidean spaces which have finite total extrinsic curvature, using some isoperimetric inequalities satisfied by the extrinsic balls in these…

In the study of immersed surfaces of constant positive extrinsic curvature in space-forms, it is natural to substitute completeness for a weaker property, which we here call quasicompleteness. We determine the global geometry of such…

For every genus g, we prove that S^2 x R contains complete, properly embedded, genus-g minimal surfaces whose two ends are asymptotic to helicoids of any prescribed pitch. We also show that as the radius of the S^2 tends to infinity, these…
