We study minimal graphs in the homogeneous Riemannian 3-manifold $\widetilde{PSL_2(\mathbb{R})}$ and we give examples of invariant surfaces. We derive a gradient estimate for solutions of the minimal surface equation in this space and…
We prove three facts about intrinsic geometry of surfaces in a normed (Minkowski) space. When put together, these facts demonstrate a rather intriguing picture. We show that (1) geodesics on saddle surfaces (in a space of any dimension)…
Assuming minimal regularity assumptions on the data, we revisit the classical problem of finding isometric immersions into the Minkowski spacetime for hypersurfaces of a Lorentzian manifold. Our approach encompasses metrics having Sobolev…
We show that the nonlinear wave equation corresponding to the minimal surface equation in Minkowski space time has global solutions for sufficiently small initial data. This is an interesting model in Lorentziann and is also the equation…
In this paper, we provide families of second order non-linear partial differential equations, describing pseudospherical surfaces (pss equations), with the property of having local isometric immersions in E^3, with principal curvatures…
We study framed translation surfaces corresponding to meromorphic differentials on compact Riemann surfaces, for which a horizontal separatrix is marked for each pole or zero. Such geometric structures naturally appear when studying flat…
Inspired by the work of Heller [12], we show that there exists a DPW potential for the Lawson surface $\xi_{k-1, l-1}$ from which it is possible to reconstruct the minimal immersion $f: \xi_{k-1, l-1} \to \mathbb{S}^3$ via the DPW method.…
Computing intrinsic distances on discrete surfaces is at the heart of many minimization problems in geometry processing and beyond. Solving these problems is extremely challenging as it demands the computation of on-surface distances along…
On any spacelike surface in a lightcone of four dimensional Lorentz-Minkowski space a distinguished smooth function is considered. It is shown how both extrinsic and intrinsic geometry of such a surface is codified by this function. The…
We study compact minimal surfaces in the 3-sphere which are constructed by successive reflections from a minimal $n$-gon -- so-called minimal reflection surfaces. The minimal $n$-gon solves a free boundary problem in a fundamental piece of…
In this paper we prove that, given an open Riemann surface $M$ and an integer $n\ge 3$, the set of complete conformal minimal immersions $M\to\mathbb{R}^n$ with $\overline{X(M)}=\mathbb{R}^n$ forms a dense subset in the space of all…
In this paper we investigate relations between solutions to the minimal surface equation in Euclidean $3$-space $\mathbb{E}^3$, the zero mean curvature equation in Lorentz-Minkowski $3$-space $\mathbb{L}^3$ and the Born-Infeld equation…
We study the absorption of a class of fields in the geometry produced by extremal three-branes. We consider fields that do not mix with the ten-dimensional graviton. For these fields we solve the wave equations and find the absorption…
We prove some half-space theorems for minimal surfaces in the Heisenberg group Nil_3 and the Lie group Sol_3 endowed with their left-invariant Riemannian metrics. If S is a properly immersed minimal surface in Nil_3 that lies on one side of…
We construct a connected, irreducible component of the moduli space of minimal surfaces of general type with $p_g=q=2$ and $K^2=5$, which contains both examples given by Chen-Hacon and the first author. This component is generically smooth…
Let $M$ be a compact Riemannian manifold not containing any totally geodesic surface. Our main result shows that then the area of any complete surface immersed into $M$ is bounded by a multiple of its extrinsic curvature energy, i.e. by a…
In this article, we study the class of surfaces of revolution in the 3-dimensional Lorentz-Minkowski space with nonvanishing Gauss curvature whose position vector x satisfies the condition {\Delta}IIIx = Ax, where A is a square matrix of…
We survey what is known about minimal surfaces in $\bold R^3 $ that are complete, embedded, and have finite total curvature. The only classically known examples of such surfaces were the plane and the catenoid. The discovery by Costa, early…
We study minimal timelike surfaces in $\mathbb R^3_1$ using a special Weierstrass-type formula in terms of holomorphic functions defined in the algebra of the double (split-complex) numbers. We present a method of obtaining an equation of a…
We found a class of triangulated surfaces in Euclidean space which have similar properties as isothermic surfaces in Differential Geometry. We call a surface isothermic if it admits an infinitesimal isometric deformation preserving the mean…
