The Bj\"orling problem and its solution is a well known result for minimal surfaces in Euclidean three-space. The minimal surface equation is similar to the Born-Infeld equation, which is naturally studied in physics. In this…
The Bj\"orling problem amounts to the construction of a minimal surface from a real-analytic curve with a given real-analytic normal vector field. We approximate that solution locally by discrete minimal surfaces as special discrete…
We solve the Bj\"orling problem for zero mean curvature surfaces in the three-dimensional light cone. As an application, we construct and classify all rotational zero mean curvature surfaces.
The classical Bj\"orling problem is to find the minimal surface containing a given real analytic curve with tangent planes prescribed along the curve. We consider the generalization of this problem to non-minimal constant mean curvature…
In this article, we study an analog of the Bj\"orling problem for isothermic surfaces (that are more general than minimal surfaces): given a real analytic curve $\gamma$ in ${\mathbb R}^3$, and two analytic non-vanishing orthogonal vector…

In this paper, we define the corresponding submanifolds to left-invariant Riemannian metrics on Lie groups, and study the following question: does a distinguished left-invariant Riemannian metric on a Lie group correspond to a distinguished…
In this paper we solve the Bj\"orling problem for the class of immersed surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$ whose mean curvature is given as an analytic function depending on its Gauss map. As an application, we prove the existence of surfaces with…
We develop a new method to construct explicit, regular minimal surfaces in Euclidean space that are defined on the entire complex plane with controlled geometry. More precisely we show that for a large class of planar curves $(x(t), y(t))$…
