We investigate the minimal surface problem in the three dimensional Heisenberg group, H, equipped with its standard Carnot-Caratheodory metric. Using a particular surface measure, we characterize minimal surfaces in terms of a sub-elliptic…
In this paper, we propose a new assumption (1.2) that involves a small oscillation and $C^2$ norms for maps from smooth bounded domains into Euclidean spaces. Furthermore, by assuming that the domain has non-negative Ricci curvature, we…
We study the asymptotic Dirichlet problem for $f$-minimal graphs in Cartan-Hadamard manifolds $M$. $f$-minimal hypersurfaces are natural generalizations of self-shrinkers which play a crucial role in the study of mean curvature flow. In the…
Given a C2-domain with compact boundary in an arbitrary complete Riemannian manifold, we search for smallness conditions on the boundary data for which the Dirichlet problem for the minimal hypersurface equation is solvable. We obtain an…

We study minimal surfaces in generic sub-Riemannian manifolds with sub-Riemannian structures of co-rank one. These surfaces can be defined as the critical points of the so-called {\it horizontal} area functional associated to the canonical…
We study the Dirichlet problem for minimal surface systems in arbitrary dimension and codimension via mean curvature flow, and obtain the existence of minimal graphs over arbitrary mean convex bounded $C^2$ domains for a large class of…
We give a survey on the development of the study of the asymptotic Dirichlet problem for the minimal surface equation on Cartan-Hadamard manifolds. Part of this survey is based on the introductory part of the doctoral dissertation of the…
We study the Dirichlet problem associated to the equation for self-similar surfaces for graphs over the Euclidean plane with a disk removed. We show the existence of a solution provided the boundary conditions on the boundary circle are…
This is a very brief report on recent developments on the Dirichlet problem for the minimal surface system and minimal cones in Euclidean spaces. We shall mainly focus on two directions: (1) Further systematic developments after…
In this paper we investigate H-minimal graphs of lower regularity. We show that noncharactersitic C^1 H-minimal graphs whose components of the unit horizontal Gauss map are in W^{1,1} are ruled surfaces with C^2 seed curves. In a different…
We consider surfaces immersed in three-dimensional pseudohermitian manifolds. We define the notion of (p-)mean curvature and of the associated (p-)minimal surfaces, extending some concepts previously given for the (flat) Heisenberg group.…
In this note, we show that the solution to the Dirichlet problem for the minimal surface system in any codimension is unique in the space of distance-decreasing maps. This follows as a corollary of the following stability theorem: if a…
In this thesis, we present various contributions to the study of free boundary minimal surfaces. After introducing some basic tools and discussing some delicate aspects related to the definition of Morse index when allowing for a contact…
In this paper we find approximate solutions of certain Riemann-Hilbert boundary value problems for minimal surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^n$ and null holomorphic curves in $\mathbb{C}^n$ for any $n\ge 3$. With this tool in hand we construct…
Lawson and Osserman proved that the Dirichlet problem for the minimal surface system is not always solvable in the class of Lipschitz maps. However, it is known that minimizing sequences (for area) of Lipschitz graphs converge to objects…
We study the asymptotic Dirichlet problem for the minimal graph equation on a Cartan-Hadamard manifold $M$ whose radial sectional curvatures outside a compact set satisfy an upper bound $$K(P)\le - \frac{\phi(\phi-1)}{r(x)^2}$$ and a…
We classify real families of minimal degree rational curves that cover an embedded rational surface. A corollary is that if the projective closure of a smooth surface is not biregular isomorphic to the projective closure of the unit-sphere,…
In this paper, we study existence and uniqueness of solutions to Jenkins-Serrin type problems on domains in a Riemannian surface. In the case of unbounded domains, the study is focused on the hyperbolic plane.
