We show that the combination of nonnegative 2-intermediate Ricci Curvature and strict positivity of scalar curvature forces rigidity of two-sided free boundary stable minimal hypersurface in a 4-manifold with bounded geometry and weakly…

We study null homotopies of immersed spheres in $\mathbb{R}^3$ and the volume they sweep during contraction. For a smooth immersion with finitely many transverse self-intersections, we introduce a cable system that connects each bounded…

Given a compact 3-manifold N without boundary, we prove that for a bumpy metric of positive scalar curvature the space of minimal surfaces having a uniform upper bound on the Morse index is always finite unless the manifold itself contains…

In this paper, we provide a sufficient condition for a curve on a surface in $\mathbb{R}^3$ to be given by an orthogonal intersection with a sphere. This result makes it possible to express the boundary condition entirely in terms of the…

We develop the concept of integral Menger curvature for a large class of nonsmooth surfaces. We prove uniform Ahlfors regularity and a $C^{1,\lambda}$-a-priori bound for surfaces for which this functional is finite. In fact, it turns out…

This paper is devoted to a complete characterization of the free boundary of all solutions to the following spectral $k$-partition problem with measure and inclusion constraints: \[ \inf \left\{\sum_{i=1}^k \lambda_1(\omega_i)\; : \;…

A minimal immersion from a surface to $S^3$ can be viewed both as a critical point of the area and of the energy. Although no difference appears at first order, looking at the respective second variations unveils significant differences. It…

We consider the problem of finding an orientation with minimum diameter of a connected bridgeless graph. Fomin et. al. discovered a relation between the minimum oriented diameter an the size of a minimal dominating set. We improve their…

We classify compact oriented $5$-manifolds with free fundamental group and $\pi_{2}$ a torsion free abelian group in terms of the second homotopy group considered as $\pi_1$-module, the cup product on the second cohomology of the universal…

We establish a new lower bound for the first non-zero Steklov eigenvalue of a compact Riemannian manifold with non-negative Ricci curvature and (strictly) convex boundary. Related results are also obtained under weaker geometric hypotheses.

We study the interior nodal sets, $Z_\lambda$ of Steklov eigenfunctions in an $n$-dimensional relatively compact manifolds $M$ with boundary and show that one has the lower bounds $|Z_\lambda|\ge c\lambda^{\frac{2-n}2}$ for the size of its…

We construct a smooth Riemannian metric on any 3-manifold with the property that there are genus zero embedded minimal surfaces of arbitrarily high Morse index.

We prove a local minimizing property for strictly stable free-boundary minimal hypersurfaces in the relative current setting. Let $\Sigma^n$ be a compact, two-sided, properly embedded free-boundary minimal hypersurface in a compact…

Let $C$ be a strictly convex domain in a $3$-dimensional Riemannian manifold with sectional curvature bounded above by a constant and let $\Sigma$ be a constant mean curvature surface with free boundary in $C$. We provide a pinching…

Let $(\Sigma^2,ds^2)$ be a compact Riemannian surface, possibly with boundary, and consider Schr\"odinger-type operators of the form $L=\Delta+V-aK$ together with natural Robin and Steklov-type boundary conditions incorporating a boundary…

Let $\Sigma$ be a closed minimal surface immersed in a Riemannian 3-manifold carrying an orthonormal Killing frame. This class of ambient spaces includes Lie groups with a bi-invariant metric. In this paper, we prove that the sum of the…

We prove the multiplicity one theorem for min-max free boundary minimal hypersurfaces in compact manifolds with boundary of dimension between 3 and 7 for generic metrics. To approach this, we develop existence and regularity theory for free…

We prove that the space of free boundary CMC surfaces of bounded topology, bounded area and bounded boundary length is compact in the $C^k$ graphical sense away from a finite set of points. This is a CMC version of a result for minimal…

Given a Riemannian manifold and a closed submanifold, we find a geodesic segment with free boundary on the given submanifold. This is a corollary of the min-max theory which we develop in this article for the free boundary variational…

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…
