We prove a version of the strong half-space theorem between the classes of recurrent minimal surfaces and complete minimal surfaces with bounded curvature of $\mathbb{R}^{3}_{\raisepunct{.}}$ We also show that any minimal hypersurface…

In this paper we prove a desingularization theorem for Legendrian surfaces that are the conormal of a quasi-ordinary hypersurface.

We prove the existence of rotational hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{H}^n\times \mathbb{R}$ with $H_{r+1}=0$ and we classify them. Then we prove some uniqueness theorems for $r$-minimal hypersurfaces with a given (finite or asymptotic) boundary.…

We study hypersurfaces in the pseudo-Euclidean space $\mathbb{E}^{n+1}_s$, which write as a warped product of a $1$-dimensional base with an $(n-1)$-manifold of constant sectional curvature. We show that either they have constant sectional…

We construct infinite families of non-simple isotopy classes of links in overtwisted contact structures on $S^1$-bundles over surfaces. These examples include: (1) a pair of Legendrian links that are not Legendrian isotopic, but which are…

Let $\{\Lambda^\infty_t\}$ be an isotopy of Legendrians (possibly singular) in a unit cosphere bundle $S^*M$. Let $Sh(M, \Lambda^\infty_t)$ be the differential graded (dg) derived category of constructible sheaves on $M$ with singular…

Let $M$ be a connected, non-compact $m$-dimensional Riemannian manifold. In this paper we consider smooth maps $\phi: M \to \mathbb{R}^n$ with images inside a non-degenerate cone. Under quite general assumptions on $M$, we provide a lower…

We explicitly determine all shear-free null hypersurfaces embedded in an Einstein spacetime, including vacuum asymptotically flat spacetimes. We characterize these hypersurfaces as oriented 3-dimensional manifolds where each is equipped…

Matching of a LTB metric representing dust matter to a background FRW universe across a null hypersurface is studied. In general, an unrestricted matching is possible only if the background FRW is flat or open. There is in general no…

For null curves in PSL(2,C), there exists a representation formula in terms of two meromorphic functions and their derivatives (Small's formula). In this paper, we give an elementary proof of Small's formula. Moreover, a similar formula for…

The properties of multimomentum maps on null hypersurfaces, and their relation with the constraint analysis of General Relativity, are described. Unlike the case of spacelike hypersurfaces, some constraints which are second class in the…

We study the so-called Gray filtration on the set of phantom maps between two spaces. Using both its algebraic characterization and the Sullivan completion approach to phantom maps, we generalize some of the recent results of Le, McGibbon…

In this paper, we focus on a conformally flat Riemannian manifold $(M^n,g)$ of dimension $n$ isometrically immersed into the $(n+1)$-dimensional light-cone $\Lambda^{n+1}$ as a hypersurface. We compute the first and the second variational…

We study explicit conformal minimal immersions into $\mathbb{R}^5$ obtained from holomorphic null curves in $\mathbb{C}^5$. Although the general correspondence between conformal minimal immersions in $\mathbb{R}^n$ and holomorphic null data…

Let $ M^{n+1} $ ($ n \ge 2 $) be a simply-connected space form of sectional curvature $ -\kappa^2 $ for some $ \kappa \geq 0 $, and $ I $ an interval not containing $ [-\kappa,\kappa] $ in its interior. It is known that the domain of a…

The classical transversality lemma of contact geometry constructs a contact structure on a hypersurface transverse to a Liouville vector field using point-set topology and local flows. This paper translates the classical transversality…

Let $X={\bf P}^2\times{\bf P}^{n-1}$ embedded with $\O(1,2)$. We prove that its $(n+1)$-secant variety $\sigma_{n+1}(X)$ is a hypersurface, while it is expected that it fills the ambient space. The equation of $\sigma_{n+1}(X)$ is the…

In this paper we find necessary and sufficient conditions for a nondegenerate arbitrary signature manifold $M^n$ to be realized as a submanifold in the large class of warped product manifolds $\varepsilon…

Kernel-based non-linear dimensionality reduction methods, such as Local Linear Embedding (LLE) and Laplacian Eigenmaps, rely heavily upon pairwise distances or similarity scores, with which one can construct and study a weighted graph…

We introduce null surfaces (or nullcone fronts) of pseudo-spherical spacelike framed curves in the three-dimensional anti-de Sitter space. These surfaces are formed by the light rays emitted from points on anti-de Sitter spacelike framed…
