We study deformations of free boundary constant mean curvature (CMC) hypersurfaces whose Jacobi operator is degenerate due to symmetries of the ambient space. The value of the mean curvature and the ambient metric are allowed to vary simultaneously, provided that the infinitesimal ambient symmetries change smoothly. We…

In this note, we observe that if $B$ is a ball in a Euclidean space with dimension $n$, $n\geq3$, then a stable CMC hypersurface $Σ$ with free boundary in $B$ satisfies \[ nA\leq L\leq nA\left( \frac{1+\sqrt{1+4(n+1)H^2}}{2} \right)\,, \] where $L$, $A$ and $H$ denote the length of $\partial Σ$, the area of $Σ$ and the…

We prove index estimates for closed and free boundary CMC surfaces in certain $3$-dimensional submanifolds of some Euclidean space. When the mean curvature is large enough we are able to prove that the index of a CMC surface in an arbitrary $3$-manifold is bounded below by a linear function of its genus.

We study stable constant mean curvature (CMC) hypersurfaces $Σ$ in slabs in a product space $M\times\r,$ where $M$ is an orientable Riemannian manifold. We obtain a characterization of stable cylinders and prove that if $Σ$ is not a cylinder then it is locally a vertical graph. Moreover, in case $M$ is $\h^n,\r^n$ or $…

In this paper, we prove gap results for constant mean curvature (CMC) surfaces. Firstly, we find a natural inequality for CMC surfaces which imply convexity for distance function. We then show that if $Σ$ is a complete, properly embedded CMC surface in the Euclidean space satisfying this inequality, then $Σ$ is either …

We study the constant mean curvature (CMC) hypersurfaces in hyperbolic space whose asymptotic boundaries are closed codimension-1 submanifolds in sphere at infinity. We consider CMC hypersurfaces as generalizations of minimal hypersurfaces. We naturally generalize some notions of minimal hypersurfaces like being area m…

Given $H\in [0,\infty),$ some sufficient conditions for existence of CMC $H$ graphs with boundary in two parallel planes of $\mathbb{H}^2\times\mathbb{R}$ are presented. Height estimates for outwards-oriented CMC surfaces (horo)cyllindrically bounded are also exhibited.

In this paper we prove that any immersed stable capillary hypersurfaces in a ball in space forms are totally umbilical. This solves completely a long-standing open problem. In the proof one of crucial ingredients is a new Minkowski type formula. We also prove a Heintze-Karcher-Ros type inequality for hypersurfaces in a…

We apply the Riemannian Penrose inequality and the Riemannian positive mass theorem to derive inequalities on the boundary of a class of compact Riemannian $3$-manifolds with nonnegative scalar curvature. The boundary of such a manifold has a CMC component, i.e. a $2$-sphere with positive constant mean curvature; and t…

In this note we discuss graphs over a domain $Ω\subset N^2$ in the product manifold $N^2\times \mathbb{R}$. Here $N^2$ is a complete Riemannian surface and $Ω$ has peice-wise smooth boundary. Let $γ\subset\partialΩ$ be a smooth connected arc and $Σ$ be a complete graph in $N^2\times \mathbb{R}$ over $Ω$. We show that i…

In this paper we generalize the Local Removable Singularity Theorem in [16] for minimal laminations to the case of weak $H$-laminations (with $H\in \mathbb{R}$ constant) in a punctured ball of a Riemannian three-manifold. We also obtain a curvature estimate for any weak CMC foliation (with possibly varying constant mea…

We prove the existence and uniqueness of the Dirichlet problem for spacelike, spherically symmetric, constant mean curvature equation with symmetric boundary data in the extended Schwarzschild spacetime. As an application, we completely solve the CMC foliation conjecture which is posted by Malec and O Murchadha in 2003…

In 1996, Huisken-Yau proved that every three-dimensional Riemannian manifold can be uniquely foliated near infinity by stable closed surfaces of constant mean curvature (CMC) if it is asymptotically equal to the (spatial) Schwarzschild solution. Later, their decay assumptions were weakened by Metzger, Huang, Eichmair-M…

The paper extends Liebmann's Theorem to convex hypersurfaces with boundary.

We use integrable systems techniques to study the singularities of timelike non-minimal constant mean curvature (CMC) surfaces in the Lorentz-Minkowski 3-space. The singularities arise at the boundary of the Birkhoff big cell of the loop group involved. We examine the behaviour of the surfaces at the big cell boundary,…

New discrete cmc surfaces defined from sphere packings and combinatorics.

In the context of the Bartnik mass, there are two fundamentally different notions of an extension of some compact Riemannian manifold $(Ω,γ)$ with boundary. In one case, the extension is taken to be a manifold without boundary in which $(Ω,γ)$ embeds isometrically, and in the other case the extension is taken to be a m…

For all $N \geq 9$, we find smooth entire epigraphs in $\R^N$, namely smooth domains of the form $Ω: = \{x\in \R^N\ / \ x_N > F (x_1,\ldots, x_{N-1})\}$, which are not half-spaces and in which a problem of the form $Δu + f(u) = 0$ in $Ω$ has a positive, bounded solution with 0 Dirichlet boundary data and constant Neum…
