We show a complete minimal immersion cannot have a certain kind of epitrochoid as a geodesic.

Those maps of a closed surface to the three-dimensional torus that are homotopic to embeddings are characterized. Particular attention is paid to the somewhat intricate case when the surface is nonorientable.

Continuing the work in \cite{ergodic-infinite}, we show that within each stratum of translation surfaces, there is a residual set of surfaces for which the geodesic flow in almost every direction is ergodic for almost-every periodic group…

We give examples of knots in a genus 2 handlebody which have nontrivial Dehn surgeries yielding handlebodies and show that these knots are not 1--bridge.

We study homomorphisms of Hecke monoids, notably parabolic homomorphisms, which map parabolic elements to parabolic elements, and injective ones. The importance of the first class stems from the fact that parabolic elements form a rather…

We provide a classification of the essential surfaces of non-negative Euler characteristic in the exteriors of genus two handlebodies embedded in the 3-sphere.

We prove necessary and sufficient conditions for a smooth surface in a 4-manifold X to be pseudoholomorphic with respect to some almost complex structure on X. This provides a systematic approach to the construction of pseudoholomorphic…

In this article, we continue to study the geometry of bisections of certain rational elliptic surfaces. As an application, we give examples of Zariski N + 1-plets of degree 2N + 4 whose irreducible components are an irreducible quartic…

Let S be a closed oriented surface of genus $g\geq 0$ with $n\geq 0$ punctures and $3g-3+n\geq 5$. Let $Q$ be a connected component of a stratum in the moduli space Q(S) of area one meromorphic quadratic differentials on S with n simple…

The purpose of this article is three-fold. First, we apply a general theorem from our earlier work to produce many new minimal doublings of the Clifford Torus in the round three-sphere. This construction generalizes and unifies prior…

A new class of examples of surfaces with maximal Picard number is constructed. These carry pencils of genus two or three curves such their Jacobian fibrations are isogenous to fibre products of elliptic modular surfaces.

We construct absolutely simple jacobians of non-hyperelliptic genus 4 curves, using Del Pezzo surfaces of degree 1. This paper is a natural continuation of author's paper math.AG/0405156.

In this note, we use the Lopez-Ros deformation introduced in [9] to show that any embedded genus-one helicoid must be symmetric with respect to rotation by 180 degrees around a normal line. This partially answers a conjecture of Bobenko…

We consider closed acylindrical surfaces in 3-manifolds and in knot and link complements, and show that the genus of these surfaces is bounded linearly by the number of tetrahedra in the triangulation of the manifold and by the number of…

In this paper we examine the geometry of minimal surfaces of arithmetic hyperbolic 3-manifolds. In particular, we give bounds on the totally geodesic 2-systole, construct infinitely many incommensurable manifolds with the same initial…

In our recent paper, we studied periodic billiard trajectories in the regular pentagon and closed geodesic on the double pentagon, a translation surface of genus two. In particular, we made a number of conjectures concerning symbolic…

It is well known that the only surfaces that are simultaneously minimal in $\mathbb{R}^3$ and maximal in $\mathbb{L}^3$ are open pieces of helicoids (in the region in which they are spacelike) and of spacelike planes (O. Kobayashi 1983).…

We introduce a flow of maps from a compact surface of arbitrary genus to an arbitrary Riemannian manifold which has elements in common with both the harmonic map flow and the mean curvature flow, but is more effective at finding minimal…

We construct new constant mean curvature surfaces in H2xR. They arise as sister surfaces of Plateau solutions. It is a family of MC 1/2 surfaces with k ends, genus 1 and k-fold dihedral symmetry, k greater 2. The surfaces are Alexandrov-…

We draw a handlebody picture of the Catanese-Ciliberto-Mendes Lopes surface. This is a complex surface obtained by taking the quotient of a product of two surfaces of genus 2 and 3, under the product of two involutions: the hypergeometric…
