In this work we are interested in the characterization of curves that belong to a given surface. To the best of our knowledge, there is no known general solution to this problem. Indeed, a solution is only available for a few examples:…
A connection is established between the soliton equations and curves moving in a three dimensional space $V_{3}$. The sign of the self-interacting terms of the soliton equations are related to the signature of $V_{3}$. It is shown that…
We study four distinct second-order nonlinear equations of Rabelo which describe pseudospherical surfaces. By transforming these equations to the constant-characteristic form we relate them to some well-studied integrable equations. Two of…
Locally convex compact immersed hypersurfaces in Finsler-Hadamard manifolds with bounded T-curvature are considered. We prove that such hypersurfaces are embedded as the boundary of convex body under certain conditions on the normal…
The geometric Cauchy problem for a class of surfaces in a pseudo-Riemannian manifold of dimension 3 is to find the surface which contains a given curve with a prescribed tangent bundle along the curve. We consider this problem for constant…
We investigate the question of unitarity of evolution between hypersurfaces in quantum field theory in curved spacetime from the perspective of the general boundary formulation. Unitarity thus means unitarity of the quantum operator that…
In this paper, we study third order nonlinear partial differential equations which describe surfaces of constant curvature. From the flatness of connection 1-forms, we present a classification of equations with the type $u_t - u_{xxt} =…
Here we present new results obtained for the equation of state with induced surface and curvature tensions. The explicit formulas for the first five virial coefficients of system pressure and for the induced surface and curvature tension…
Nonlocal symmetries for exactly integrable two-field evolutionary systems of the third order have been computed. Differentiation of the nonlocal symmetries with respect to spatial variable gives a few nonevolutionary systems for each…
In [20], we derived representation formulae for spatially periodic solutions to the generalized, inviscid Proudman-Johnson equation and studied their regularity for several classes of initial data. The purpose of this paper is to extend…
In this note we consider the problem of integrality of Zariski decompositions for pseudoeffective integral divisors on algebraic surfaces. We show that while sometimes integrality of Zariski decompositions forces all negative curves to be…
Given $a,b\in\mathbb{R}$ and $\Phi\in C^1(\mathbb{S}^2)$, we study immersed oriented surfaces $\Sigma$ in the Euclidean 3-space $\mathbb{R}^3$ whose mean curvature $H$ and Gauss curvature $K$ satisfy $2aH+bK=\Phi(N)$, where…
We study the Gauss curvature equation with negative singularities. For a local mean field type equation with only one negative index we prove a uniqueness property. For a global equation with one or two negative indexes we prove the…
We classify the self-similar solutions to a class of Weingarten curvature flow of connected compact convex hypersurfaces, isometrically immersed into space forms with non-positive curvature, and obtain a new characterization of a sphere in…
We introduce a new geometric evolution equation for hypersurfaces in asymptotically flat spacetime initial data sets, that unites the theory of marginally outer trapped surfaces (MOTS) with the study of inverse mean curvature flow in…
We study the surface quasi-geostrophic equation driven by a generic additive noise process $W$. By means of convex integration techniques, we establish existence of weak solutions whenever the stochastic convolution $z$ associated with $W$…
The behavior of an elastic curve bound to a surface will reflect the geometry of its environment. This may occur in an obvious way: the curve may deform freely along directions tangent to the surface, but not along the surface normal.…
A formulation of the shallow water equations adapted to general complex terrains is proposed. Its derivation starts from the observation that the typical approach of depth integrating the Navier-Stokes equations along the direction of…
We conjecture that many (maybe all) integrable equations and spin systems in 2+1 dimensions can be obtained from the (2+1)-dimensional Gauss-Mainardi-Codazzi and Gauss-Weingarten equations, respectively. We also show that the…
General equations are derived for slow viscous thin fluid film flows on curved surfaces through an extension of Leal's pedagogical approach, which leaves the characteristic velocity scale unspecified and employs a direct through-thickness…
