We prove that every complete finite index immersed CMC hypersurface is either minimal or compact, provided that the ambient six-dimensional manifold is a Riemannian product of a closed manifold with non-negative sectional curvature and a…

We give a solution to the equivalence and the embedding problems for smooth CR-submanifolds of complex spaces (and, more generally, for abstract CR-manifolds) in terms of complete differential systems in jet bundles satisfied by all…

Constant Mean Curvature (CMC) 1-immersions of surfaces into hyperbolic 3-manifolds are natural and yet rather curious objects in hyperbolic geometry with interesting applications. Firstly, Bryant revealed surprising relations between (CMC)…

In this paper we study constant mean curvature surfaces $\Sigma$ in a product space, $\mathbb{M}^2\times \mathbb{R}$, where $\mathbb{M}^2$ is a complete Riemannian manifold. We assume the angle function $\nu = \meta{N}{\partial_t}$ does not…

Let $(S,h)$ be a closed hyperbolic surface and $M$ be a quasi-Fuchsian 3-manifold. We consider incompressible maps from $S$ to $M$ that are critical points of an energy functional $F$ which is homogeneous of degree $1$. These "minimizing"…

We define a notion of isotropic surfaces in $\mathbb{O}$, i.e. on which some canonical symplectic forms vanish. Using the cross-product in $\mathbb{O}$ we define a map $\rho\colon Gr\_2(\mathbb{O})\to S^6$ from the Grassmannian of…

The optimal target dimensions are determined for totally real immersions and for independent mappings into complex affine spaces. Our arguments are similar to those given by Forster, but we use orientable manifolds as far as possible and so…

Abstract deformations of the CR structure of a compact strictly pseudoconvex hypersurface $M$ in $\mathbb{C}^2$ are encoded by complex functions on $M$. In sharp contrast with the higher dimensional case, the natural integrability condition…

The notion of ideal immersions was introduced by the author in 1990s. Roughly speaking, an ideal immersion of a Riemannian manifold into a real space form is a nice isometric immersion which produces the least possible amount of tension…

Let F be a closed non-orientable surface. We classify all finite order invariants of immersions of F into R^3, with values in any Abelian group. We show they are all functions of the universal order 1 invariant that we construct as T \oplus…

A sequence of constant mean curvature surfaces $\Sigma_j$ with mean curvature $H_j \to \infty$ in a three-dimensional manifold $M$ condenses to a compact and connected graph $\Gamma$ consisting of a finite union of curves if $\Sigma_j$ is…

In this paper we prove results on the existence and homotopy classification of holomorphic submersions from Stein manifolds to other complex manifolds. We say that a complex manifold Y satisfies Property S_n for some integer n bigger or…

We prove rigidity of oriented isometric immersions of complete surfaces in the homo- geneous 3-manifolds E(k; {\tau}) (different from the space forms) having the same positive extrinsic curvature.

For an infinite type surface $\Sigma$, we consider the space of (marked) convex hyperbolic structures on $\Sigma$, denoted $H(\Sigma)$, with the Fenchel-Nielsen topology. The (big) mapping class group acts faithfully on this space allowing…

We give a necessary and sufficient condition for a 2-dimensional Riemannian manifold to be locally isometrically immersed into a 3-dimensional homogeneous manifold with a 4-dimensional isometry group. The condition is expressed in terms of…

We study conformal bi-slant submersions from almost Hermitian manifolds onto Riemannian manifolds as a generalized of conformal anti-invariant, conformal semi-invariant, conformal semi-slant, conformal slant and conformal hemi-slant…

We show that many 3-manifold groups have no nonabelian surface subgroups. For example, any link of an isolated complex surface singularity has this property. In fact, we determine the exact class of closed graph-manifolds which have no…

This paper brings several contributions to the classical Forster-Bell-Narasimhan conjecture and the Yang problem concerning the existence of proper and almost proper (hence complete) injective holomorphic immersions of open Riemann surfaces…

Let $\Sigma$ be a surface equipped with an area form. There is an long standing open question by Katok, which, in particular, asks whether every entropy-zero Hamiltonian diffeomorphism of a surface lies in the $C^0$-closure of the set of…

We define generalized currents associated with immersions of abstract oriented solenoids with a transversal measure. We realize geometrically the full real homology of a compact manifold with these generalized currents, and more precisely…
