It is shown that parts of planes, helicoids and hyperbolic paraboloids are the only minimal surfaces ruled by geodesics in the three dimensional Riemannian Heisenberg group. It is also shown that they are the only surfaces in the three…

We classify the entire minimal vertical graphs in the 3 dimensional Heisenberg group Nil endowed with a Riemannian left-invariant metric. This classification, which provides a solution to the Bernstein problem in Nil, is given in terms of…

Recently, the author and Melentijevi\'c resolved the longstanding Gaussian curvature problem by proving the sharp inequality \[ |\mathcal{K}| < c_0 = \frac{\pi^2}{2} \] for minimal graphs over the unit disk, evaluated at the point of the…

We define a Gauss map for surfaces in the universal cover of the Lie group PSL_2(R) endowed with a left-invariant Riemannian metric having a 4-dimensional isometry group. This Gauss map is not related to the Lie group structure. We prove…

We survey Bernstein-type theorems for graphical surfaces in the Euclidean space and the Lorentz-Minkowski space. More specifically, we explain several proofs of the Bernstein theorem for minimal graphs in the Euclidean 3-space. Furthermore,…

Self-shrinkers are important geometric objects in the study of mean curvature flows, while the Bernstein Theorem is one of the most profound results in minimal surface theory. We prove a Bernstein type result for graphical self-shrinker…

We address the problem of integrability of the sub-Riemannian mean curvature of an embedded hypersurface around isolated characteristic points. The main contribution of this note is the introduction of a concept of mildly degenerate…

We derive a Bernstein type result for the special Lagrangian equation, namely, any global convex solution must be quadratic. In terms of minimal surfaces, the result says that any global minimal Lagrangian graph with convex potential must…

Combining the intrinsic and extrinsic geometry, we generalize Einstein manifolds to Integral-Einstein (IE) submanifolds. A Takahashi-type theorem is established to characterize minimal hypersurfaces with constant scalar curvature (CSC) in…

A weighted area estimate for entire graphs with bounded weighted mean curvature in Gauss space is given by a simple proof. Bernstein type theorems for self shrinkers (\cite {wa}) as well as for graphic $\lambda$-hypersurfaces (\cite{…

For $n\geq 2$ we define a notion of umbilicity for hypersurfaces in the Heisenberg group $H_{n}$. We classify umbilic hypersurfaces in some cases, and prove that Pansu spheres are the only umbilic spheres with positive constant $p$(or…

We obtain necessary conditions for the existence of complete vertical graphs of constant mean curvature in the Hyperbolic and Steady State spaces. In the two-dimensional case we prove Bernstein-type results in each of these ambient spaces.

We study the stability of minimizers of weighted $p$-area functionals associated with prescribed $p$-mean curvature surfaces in the Heisenberg group. While existence and uniqueness results are well established, quantitative stability with…

We prove that a strictly stable minimal $C^2_h$ intrinsic graph G is locally area-minimizing, i.e. given any $C^1_h$ graph $S$ with the same boundary, $\text{Area}(G)<\text{Area}(S)$ unless $G=S$. As a consequence we show the existence and…

In this paper we aim at identifying the level sets of the gauge norm in the Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}^n$ via the prescription of their (non-constant) horizontal mean curvature. We establish a uniqueness result in $\mathbb{H}^1$ under an…

Let $ \Omega \subsetneq \mathbf{R}^n\,(n\geq 2)$ be an unbounded convex domain. We study the minimal surface equation in $\Omega$ with boundary value given by the sum of a linear function and a bounded uniformly continuous function in $…

By considering the three dimensional Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}_1$ as a flat model of pseudo-hermitian manifolds, the authors in [8] derived the Frenet-Serret formulas for curves in $\mathbb{H}_1$. In this notes we show three applications…

In this paper, we study some basic geometric properties of pseudohermitian submanifolds of the Heisenberg groups. In particular, we obtain the uniqueness and existence theorems, and some rigidity theorems.

Moser's Bernstein theorem \cite{moser61} says that an entire minimal graph of codimension 1 with bounded slope must be a hyperplane. An analogous result for arbitrary codimension is not true, by an example of Lawson-Osserman. Here, we show…

In this paper, we introduce two notions on a surface in a contact manifold. The first one is called degree of transversality (DOT) which measures the transversality between the tangent spaces of a surface and the contact planes. The second…
