On the stability index of hypersurfaces with constant mean curvature in spheres

Barbosa, do Carmo and Eschenburg characterized the totally umbilical spheres as the only weakly stable compact constant mean curvature hypersurfaces in the Euclidean sphere . In this paper we prove that the weak index of any other compact constant mean curvature hypersurface in n+1 which is not totally umbilical and has constant scalar curvature is greater than or equal to , with equality if and only if is a constant mean curvature Clifford torus with radius .

     

On the scalar curvature of constant mean curvature hypersurfaces in space forms

In this paper we study the behavior of the scalar curvature S of a complete hypersurface immersed with constant mean curvature into a Riemannian space form of constant curvature, deriving a sharp estimate for the infimum of S. Our results will be an application of a weak Omori-Yau maximum principle due to Pigola, Rigoli, Setti (2005) [17].     

On the nondegeneracy of constant mean curvature surfaces

We prove that many complete, noncompact, constant mean curvature (CMC) surfaces are nondegenerate; that is, the Jacobi operator Δ_f + | A_f |² has no L² kernel. In fact, if ∑ has genus zero with k ends, and if f (∑) is embedded (or Alexandrov immersed) in a half-space, then we find an explicit upper bound for the dimension of the L² kernel in terms of the number of non-cylindrical ends. Our main tool is a conjugation operation on Jacobi fields which linearizes the conjugate cousin construction. Consequences include partial regularity for CMC moduli space, a larger class of CMC surfaces to use in gluing constructions, and a surprising characterization of CMC surfaces via spinning spheres.

On the classification of projectively flat Finsler metrics with constant flag curvature

In this paper, we study locally projectively flat Finsler metrics with constant flag curvature K. We prove those are totally determined by their behaviors at the origin by solving some nonlinear PDEs. The classifications when K=0$\mathbf{K}=0$, K=−1$\mathbf{K}=-1$ and K=1$\mathbf{K}=1$ are given respectively in an algebraic way. Further, we construct a new projectively flat Finsler metric with flag curvature K=1$\mathbf{K}=1$ determined by a Minkowski norm with double square roots at the origin. As an application of our main theorems, we give the classification of locally projectively flat spherical symmetric Finsler metrics much easier than before.     

The spaces of index one minimal surfaces and stable constant mean curvature surfaces embedded in flat three manifolds

It is proved that the spaces of index one minimal surfaces and stable constant mean curvature surfaces with genus greater than one in (non fixed) flat three manifolds are compact in a strong sense: given a sequence of any of the above surfaces we can extract a convergent subsequence of both the surfaces and the ambient manifolds in the topology. These limits preserve the topological type of the surfaces and the affine diffeomorphism class of the ambient manifolds. Some applications to the isoperimetric problem are given.

     

On the heat flow equation of surfaces of constant mean curvature in higher dimensions

In this paper, we consider the heat flow for the Hsystem with constant mean curvature in higher dimensions. We give sufficient conditions on the initial data such that the heat flow develops finite time singularity. We also provide a new set of initial data to guarantee the existence of global regular solution to the heat flow, that converges to zero in W 1,n with the decay rate t 2/(2-n) as time goes to infinity.     

Spectral transformation of constant mean curvature surfaces in H3 and Weierstrass representation

By using the method of integrable system, we study the deformation of constant mean curvature surfaces in three-dimensional hyperbolic space form H3. We also obtain a Weierstrass representation formula of the constant mean curvature surfaces with mean curvature greater than 1.     

On the Gauss map of hypersurfaces with constant scalar curvature in spheres

In this work we consider connected, complete and orientable hypersurfaces of the sphere with constant nonnegative -mean curvature. We prove that under subsidiary conditions, if the Gauss image of is contained in a closed hemisphere, then is totally umbilic.

A modified phase field approximation for mean curvature flow with conservation of the volume

This paper is concerned with the motion of a time‐dependent hypersurface ?Ω(t) in ?^d that evolves with a normal velocity where κ is the mean curvature of ?Ω(t), and g is an external forcing term. Phase field approximation of this motion leads to the Allen–Cahn equation where ε is an approximation parameter, W a double well potential and c_W a constant that depends only on W. We study here a modified version of this equation and we prove its convergence to the same geometric motion. We then make use of this modified equation in the context of mean curvature flow with conservation of the volume, and we show that it has better volume‐preserving properties than the traditional nonlocal Allen–Cahn equation.

Timelike surfaces of constant mean curvature ±1 in anti-de Sitter 3-space ℍ3 1(−1)

It is shown that timelike surfaces of constant mean curvature ± in anti-de Sitter 3-space ?³ ₁(?1) can be constructed from a pair of Lorentz holomorphic and Lorentz antiholomorphic null curves in ?SL₂? via Bryant type representation formulae. These Bryant type representation formulae are used to investigate an explicit one-to-one correspondence, the so-called Lawson–Guichard correspondence, between timelike surfaces of constant mean curvature ± 1 and timelike minimal surfaces in Minkowski 3-space E ³ ₁. The hyperbolic Gauß map of timelike surfaces in ?³ ₁(?1), which is a close analogue of the classical Gauß map is considered. It is discussed that the hyperbolic Gauß map plays an important role in the study of timelike surfaces of constant mean curvature ± 1 in ?³ ₁(?1). In particular, the relationship between the Lorentz holomorphicity of the hyperbolic Gauß map and timelike surface of constant mean curvature ± 1 in ?³ ₁(?1) is studied.

The Riemannian product structures of spacelike hypersurfaces with constant k-th mean curvature in the de Sitter spaces

In this paper, we investigate complete spacelike hypersurfaces in the de Sitter space with constant k-th mean curvature and two distinct principal curvatures one of which is simple. We obtain some characterizations of the Riemannian product H¹(c₁)×Sn−1(c₂) or Hn−1(c₁)×S¹(c₂) in the de Sitter space .     

Existence of a lower bound for the distance between point masses of relative equilibria in spaces of constant curvature

We prove that if for the curved n-body problem the masses are given, the minimum distance between the point masses of a specific type of relative equilibrium solution to that problem has a universal lower bound that is not equal to zero. We furthermore prove that the set of all such relative equilibria is compact. This class of relative equilibria includes all relative equilibria of the curved n  -body problem in H²${\mathbb{H}}^2$ and a significant subset of the relative equilibria for S²${\mathbb{S}}^2$, S³${\mathbb{S}}^3$ and H³${\mathbb{H}}^3$.
