In classical surface theory there are but few known examples of surfaces admitting nontrivial isometric deformations and fewer still non-simply-connected ones. We consider the isometric deformability question for an immersion x: M \to R^3…
It was shown by Ramanathan \cite{R} that any compact oriented non-simply-connected minimal surface in the three-dimensional round sphere admits at most a finite set of pairwise noncongruent minimal isometric immersions. Here we show that…
Let $H^4$ denote the hyperbolic four-space. Given a bordered Riemann surface, $M$, we prove that every smooth conformal superminimal immersion $\overline M\to H^4$ can be approximated uniformly on compacts in $M$ by proper conformal…
In this paper, we prove that a closed minimally immersed hypersurface $M^4\subset\mathbb S^5$ with constant $S:=\sum\limits_{i=1}^4\lambda_i^2$ and $A_3:=\sum\limits_{i=1}^4\lambda_i^3$ whose scalar curvature $R_M$ is nonnegative must be…
We prove that a minimal hypersurfaces $f\colon M^{3} \to \mathbb{Q}^4(c)$ with nonzero three distinct principal curvature cannot be isometrically immersed in $\mathbb{Q}^4(\tilde{c}), \ \tilde{c}\neq c$. In the other cases, we present a…
In this paper, we prove that any closed minimal hypersurface $M^4$ in the $5$-dimensional unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^5$ with constant scalar curvature and constant $3$-th mean curvature must be isoparametric. To be precise, $M^4$ is either an…
We study ends of an oriented, immersed, non-compact, complete Willmore surfaces, which are critical points of the integral of the square of the mean curvature, in asymptotically flat spaces of any dimension; assuming the surface has…
For a given simply connected Riemannian surface Sigma, we relate the problem of finding minimal isometric immersions of Sigma into S^2 x R or H^2 x R to a system of two partial differential equations on Sigma. We prove that a constant…
We investigate the behavior of the second fundamental form of an isometric immersion of a space form with negative curvature into a space form so that the extrinsic curvature is negative. If the immersion has flat normal bundle, we prove…
We consider isometric immersions of complete connected Riemannian manifolds into space forms of nonzero constant curvature. We prove that if such an immersion is compact and has semi-definite second fundamental form, then it is an embedding…
Geometry of conformal minimal two-spheres immersed in $G(2,6;\mathbb{R})$ is studied in this paper by harmonic maps. We construct a non-homogeneous constant curved minimal two-sphere in $G(2,6;\mathbb{R})$, and give a classification theorem…
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 $M^4$ be a closed immersed minimal hypersurface with constant squared length of the second fundamental form $S$ and constant 3-mean curvature $H_3$ in $\mathbb{S}^{5}$. If $H_3^2\leq \frac{1}{2}.$ and Gauss-Kronecker curvature $K_M$…
Minimal surfaces are ubiquitous in nature. Here they are considered as geometric objects that bear a deformation content. By refining the resolution of the surface deformation gradient afforded by the polar decomposition theorem, we…
We show that immersed minimal surfaces of $\mathbb{R}^{3}$ with bounded curvature and proper self intersections are proper. We also show that the restriction of the immersing map to a wide component is always proper. When the immersing map…
This paper proves that classical minimal surfaces of arbitrary topological type with total boundary curvature at most 4\pi must be smoothly embedded. Related results are proved for varifolds and for soap film surfaces.
The geometry of conformal minimal two-spheres immersed in G(2,6;R) is studied in this paper by harmonic maps. Then in most cases, we determine the linearly full reducible conformal minimal immersions from S^2 to G(2,8;R) identified with the…
Let N be a complete, homogeneously regular Riemannian manifold of dimension greater than 2 and let M be a compact submanifold of N. Let $\Sigma$ be a compact orientable surface with boundary. We show that for any continuous $f: (\Sigma,…
In this paper we develop the theory of properly immersed minimal surfaces in the quotient space $\mathbb H^2\times\mathbb R/G,$ where $G$ is a subgroup of isometries generated by a vertical translation and a horizontal isometry in $\mathbb…
The isometric immersion of two-dimensional Riemannian manifolds or surfaces in the three-dimensional Euclidean space is a fundamental problem in differential geometry. When the Gauss curvature is negative, the isometric immersion problem is…
