We develop a conservation law for constant mean curvature (CMC) surfaces introduced by Korevaar, Kusner and Solomon, and provide a converse, so as to characterize CMC surfaces by a conservation law. We work with `twizzler' construction,…

Four constructions of constant mean curvature (CMC) hypersurfaces in the (n+1)-sphere are given, which should be considered analogues of `classical' constructions that are possible for CMC hypersurfaces in Euclidean space. First,…

There are many non-trivial entire spacelike graphs with constant mean curvature $H$ (CMC $H$, for short) in the isotropic 3-space $\mathbb{I}^3$. In this paper, we show a value distribution theorem of Gaussian curvature of complete…

Weakly stable constant mean curvature (CMC) hypersurfaces are stable critical points of the area functional with respect to volume preserving deformations. We establish a pointwise curvature estimate (in the non-singular dimensions) and a…

Weingarten surfaces are those whose principal curvatures satisfy a functional relation, whose set of solutions is called the curvature diagram or the W-diagram of the surface. Making use of the notion of geometric linear momentum of a plane…
