The bending energy of any freely deformable closed surface is quadratic in its curvature. In the absence of constraints, it will be minimized when the surface adopts the form of a round sphere. If the surface is confined within a…
In this work we present new fundamental tools for studying the variations of the Willmore functional of immersed surfaces into $R^m$. This approach gives for instance a new proof of the existence of a Willmore minimizing embedding of an…
In this article, we construct complete embedded constant mean curvature surfaces in $\mb{R}^3$ with freely prescribed genus and any number of ends greater than or equal to four. Heuristically, the surfaces are obtained by resolving finitely…
We discuss several kinds of Willmore surfaces of flat normal bundle in this paper. First we show that every S-Willmore surface with flat normal bundle in $S^n$ must locate in some $S^3\subset S^n$, from which we characterize Clifford torus…
This paper discusses modelling, controllability and gait design for a spherical flexible swimmer. We first present a kinematic model of a low Reynolds number spherical flexible swimming mechanism with periodic surface deformations in the…
We consider properly immersed finite topology minimal surfaces S in complete finite volume hyperbolic 3-manifolds N, and in M x S(1), where M is a complete hyperbolic surface of finite area. We prove S has finite total curvature equal to…
Using the spherical geometry, we introduce a novel model to study excitons confined in a three-dimensional space, which offers unparalleled mathematical simplicity while retaining much of the key physics. This new model consists of an…
We prove that if a topological sphere smoothly embedded into $\mathbb{R}^3$ with normal curvatures absolutely bounded by $1$ is contained in an open ball of radius $2$, then the region it bounds must contain a unit ball. This result…
In a recent paper, Brendle showed the uniqueness of the Bryant soliton among 3-dimensional $\kappa$-solutions. In this paper, we present an alternative proof for this fact and show that compact $\kappa$-solutions are rotational symmetric.…
We consider constant mean curvature 1 surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$ arising via the DPW method from a holomorphic perturbation of the standard Delaunay potential on the punctured disk. Kilian, Rossman and Schmitt have proven that such a…
The classical square well potential is smoothed with a finite range smoothing function in order to get a new simple strictly finite range form for the phenomenological nuclear potential. The smoothed square well form becomes exactly zero…
We produce a family of bodies in $\mathbb R^3$ parameterized by $\varepsilon > 0$, each bounded by a smooth topological sphere with principal curvatures in $[-1, 1]$, and having volume arbitrarily close to $ 16 - 4\sqrt 3 + \left(10 \sqrt 3…
We construct an explicit example of a smooth isotopy $\{\xi_t\}_{t \in [0,1]}$ of volume- and orientation-preserving diffeomorphisms on $[0,1]^n$ ($n \geq 3$) that has infinite total kinetic energy. This isotopy has no self-cancellation and…
In a previous preprint we defined an energy associated to every embedding of a surface into $R^n$ or $S^n$. This energy is invariant under Moebius tranformations and the "round" sphere is its only absolute minimum. Here we sketch a proof of…
The classification of Willmore 2-spheres in the $n$-dimensional sphere $S^n$ is a long-standing problem, solved only when $n=3,4$ by Bryant, Ejiri, Musso and Montiel independently. In this paper we give a classification when $n=5$. There…
Very little is yet known regarding the Willmore flow of surfaces with Dirichlet boundary conditions. We consider surfaces with a rotational symmetry as initial data and prove a global existence and convergence result for solutions of the…
We prove a general fusion theorem for complete orientable minimal surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$ with finite total curvature. As a consequence, complete orientable minimal surfaces of weak finite total curvature with exotic geometry are…
We consider embedded ring-type surfaces (that is, compact, connected, orientable surfaces with two boundary components and Euler-Poincar\'{e} characteristic zero) in ${\bold R}^3$ of constant mean curvature which meet planes $\Pi_1$ and…
The goal of this note is to prove that every real-valued Lipschitz function on a Banach space can be pointwise approximated on a given $\sigma$-compact set by smooth cylindrical functions whose asymptotic Lipschitz constants are controlled.…
An anisotropic surface energy is the integral of an energy density that depends on the normal at each point over the considered surface, and it is a generalization of surface area. The minimizer of such an energy among all closed surfaces…
