In this article, we show that the critical catenoid, as a free boundary minimal surface of the unit ball in $\mathbb{R}^3$, has index $4$. We also prove that a free boundary minimal surface of the unit ball in $\mathbb{R}^3$, that is not a…
We show that an embedded minimal annulus $\Sigma^2 \subset B^3$ which intersects $\partial B^3$ orthogonally and is invariant under reflection through the coordinate planes is the critical catenoid. The proof uses nodal domain arguments and…
In a recent paper A. Fraser and R. Schoen have proved the existence of free boundary minimal surfaces $\Sigma\_n$ in $B^3$ which have genus $0$ and $n$ boundary components, for all $ n \geq 3$. For large $n$, we give an independent…
We develop new methods to compare the span $\mathcal{C}(\Sigma)$ of the coordinate functions on a free boundary minimal submanifold $\Sigma$ embedded in the unit $n$-ball $\mathbb{B}^n$ with its first Steklov eigenspace…
We prove existence and regularity of metrics on a surface with boundary which maximize sigma_1 L where sigma_1 is the first nonzero Steklov eigenvalue and L the boundary length. We show that such metrics arise as the induced metrics on free…
We show that a minimal surface meeting a sphere at a 90-degree angle can be reflected across the sphere. Using this reflection, we prove the uniqueness that every embedded free boundary minimal annulus in a ball is necessarily the critical…
In this paper we establish a connection between free boundary minimal surfaces in a ball in $\mathbb{R}^3$ and free boundary cones arising in a one-phase problem. We prove that a doubly connected minimal surface with free boundary in a ball…
We consider $\Sigma$ an embedded free boundary minimal annulus in a geodesic ball in the round hemisphere $\mathbb{S}^3_+$ or in the hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^3$. Under the hypothesis of invariance due to an antipodal map on the geodesic…
In this note we investigate free boundary minimal surfaces in the Euclidean 3-space, and by using holomorphic techniques developed by Fraser and Schoen we prove that the free boundary minimal annulus is the critical catenoid.
We first consider a uniqueness problem for embedded free boundary minimal annuli in the three-dimensional Euclidean unit half-ball. Then, we obtain symmetry properties for compact embedded free boundary minimal surfaces in the unit ball.…
We show that, among free boundary minimal surfaces in the unit ball in the three-dimensional Euclidean space, the flat equatorial disk and the critical catenoid are characterised by a pinching condition on the length of their second…
We employ min-max techniques to show that the unit ball in $\mathbb{R}^3$ contains embedded free boundary minimal surfaces with connected boundary and arbitrary genus.
We show that the rotationally symmetric free boundary minimal catenoid in the unit ball in $\Bbb{R}^3$ has Morse index equal to $4$.
For each integer $g\geq 1$ we use variational methods to construct in the unit $3$-ball $B$ a free boundary minimal surface $\Sigma_g$ of symmetry group $\mathbb{D}_{g+1}$. For $g$ large, $\Sigma_g$ has three boundary components and genus…
In this paper we obtain two classification theorems for free boundary minimal hypersurfaces outside of the unit ball (exterior FBMH for short) in Euclidean space. The first result states that the only exterior stable FBMH with parallel…
We prove a uniqueness result for free boundary minimal annuli in the unit Euclidean three-ball that are $\sigma$-homothetic to the critical catenoid.
We prove that the area of a free boundary minimal surface $\Sigma^2 \subset B^n$, where $B^n$ is a geodesic ball contained in a round hemisphere $\mathbb{S}^n_+$, is at least as big as that of a geodesic disk with the same radius as $B^n$;…
We construct a family of compact free boundary minimal annuli immersed in the unit ball $\mathbb{B}^3$ of $\mathbb{R}^3$, the first such examples other than the critical catenoid. This solves a problem formulated by Nitsche in 1985. These…
We study free boundary minimal surfaces in the unit ball of low cohomogeneity. For each pair of positive integers $(m,n)$ such that $m, n >1$ and $m+n\geq 8$, we construct a free boundary minimal surface $\Sigma_{m, n} \subset B^{m+n}$(1)…
In this paper we use the Alexandrov Reflection Method to obtain a characterization to embedded CMC capillary annulus $\Sigma^2 \subset \mathbb{B}^3$. In especial, but using a new strategy, we present a new characterization to the critical…
