This is mainly a survey article on the recent development of the theory of graph-like Legendrian unfoldings and its applications. The notion of big Legendrian submanifolds was introduced by Zakalyukin for describing the wave front propagations. Graph-like Legendrian unfoldings belong to a special class of big Legendria…

Study solves Dirichlet problem for higher-dimensional submanifolds.

We show the volume maximizing property of the special Lagrangian submanifolds of a pseudo-Euclidean space. These special Lagrangian submanifolds arise locally as gradient graphs of solutions to Monge-Ampere Equations.

This article studies the mean curvature flow of Lagrangian submanifolds. In particular, we prove the following global existence and convergence theorem: if the potential function of a Lagrangian graph in T^{2n} is convex, then the flow exists for all time and converges smoothly to a flat Lagrangian submanifold.

The paper solves Bernstein problems for specific submanifolds in high-dimensional spaces.

We establish Bernstein Theorems for Lagrangian graphs which are Hamiltonian minimal or have conformal Maslov form. Some known results of minimal (Lagrangian) submanifolds are generalized.

Special Lagrangian submanifolds emerge from K3 surface collapse.

We address the study of some curvature equations for distinguished submanifolds in para-Kähler geometry. We first observe that a para-complex submanifold of a para-Kähler manifold is minimal. Next we describe the extrinsic geometry of Lagrangian submanifolds in the para-complex Euclidean space D^n and discuss a number …

A world sheet in anti-de Sitter space is a timelike submanifold consisting of a one-parameter family of spacelike submanifolds. We consider the family of lightlike hypersurfaces along spacelike submanifolds in the world sheet. The locus of the singularities of lightlike hypersurfaces along spacelike submanifolds forms …

Proves smoothness of certain Lagrangian submanifolds in complex space.

An $n$ dimensional minimal submanifold $Σ$ of $\R^{n+m}$ is called non-parametric if $Σ$ can be represented as the graph of a vector-valued function $f:D\subset \R^n \mapsto \R^m$. This note provides a sufficient condition for the stability of such $Σ$ in terms of the norm of the differential $df$.

The paper extends a Bernstein theorem to codimension 2 minimal submanifolds.

We construct examples of $C^\infty$ smooth submanifolds in ${\Bbb C}^n$ and ${\Bbb R}^n$ of codimension 2 and 1, which intersect every complex, respectively real, analytic curve in a discrete set. The examples are realized either as compact tori or as properly imbedded Euclidean spaces, and are the graphs of quasianaly…

Let Ωand \tildeΩ be uniformly convex domains in \mathbb{R}^n with smooth boundary. We show that there exists a diffeomorphism f: Ω\to \tildeΩ such that the graph Σ= \{(x,f(x)): x \in Ω\} is a minimal Lagrangian submanifold of \mathbb{R}^n \times \mathbb{R}^n.

Laplacian Eigenvectors of the graph constructed from a data set are used in many spectral manifold learning algorithms such as diffusion maps and spectral clustering. Given a graph constructed from a random sample of a $d$-dimensional compact submanifold $M$ in $\mathbb{R}^D$, we establish the spectral convergence rate…

A standard fact about two incompressible surfaces in an irreducible 3-manifold is that one can move one of them by isotopy so that their intersection becomes $π_1$-injective. By extending it on the maps of some 3-dimensional $\mathbb{Z}_n$-manifolds into 4-manifolds, we prove that any homotopy equivalence of 4-dimensio…

We prove that there are compact submanifolds of the 3-sphere whose interiors are not homeomorphic to any geometric limit of hyperbolic knot complements.

In this paper we show that two Lagrangian graphs over the torus in $\mathbb{C}^n$ with large Lagrangian phase can be connected via Lipschitz continuous geodesic with respect to the $L^2$ metric on the space of Lagrangian submanifolds. In particular, the geodesic for Lagrangian graphs over the torus in $\mathbb{C}^n$ ca…

We consider the mean curvature flow of the graph of a smooth map $f:\mathbb{R}^2\to\mathbb{R}^2$ between two-dimensional Euclidean spaces. If $f$ satisfies an area-decreasing property, the solution exists for all times and the evolving submanifold stays the graph of an area-decreasing map $f_t$. Further, we prove unifo…

The Gromov-Eliashberg theorem says that the group of symplectomorphisms of a symplectic manifold is C^0-closed in the group of diffeomorphisms. This can be translated into a statement about the Lagrangian submanifolds which are graphs of symplectomorphisms. It is also known that such Lagrangian submanifolds are locally…

Extends Smale's principle to produce minimal graphs with singularities.

Under suitable conditions on the range of the Gauss map of a complete submanifold of Euclidean space with parallel mean curvature, we construct a strongly subharmonic function and derive a-priori estimates for the harmonic Gauss map. The required conditions here are more general than in previous work and they therefore…

Let M be a totally orientable graph manifold with characteristic submanifold T and let M = V cup_S W be a Heegaard splitting. We prove that S is standard. In particular, S is the amalgamation of strongly irreducible Heegaard splittings. The splitting surfaces S_i of these strongly irreducible Heegaard splittings have t…

Study examines mean curvature flow on graphs of maps between manifolds.

Let (Σ, ω) be a compact Riemann surface with constant curvature c. In this work, we proved that the mean curvature flow of a given Hamiltonian diffeomorphism on Σ provides a smooth path in Ham(Σ), the group of all Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of Σ. This result gives a proof, in the case of graph of Hamiltonian diffeomor…

We extend the work of Simon and Wickramasekera, who constructed a large class of $C^{1,μ}$ multivalued solutions to the minimal surface equation, to produce $C^{1,μ}$ multivalued solutions to more general classes of elliptic equations and systems, including the minimal surface system with small boundary data and the La…

Let N be a complete, simply-connected surface of constant curvature κ\leq 0. Moreover, suppose that Ωand \tildeΩ are strictly convex domains in N with the same area. We show that there exists an area-preserving diffeomorphism from Ωto \tildeΩ whose graph is a minimal submanifold of N \times N.

Suppose that $C=(C_1,..., C_m)$ is a configuration of 2-dimensional symplectic submanifolds in a symplectic 4-manifold $(X,ω)$ with connected, negative definite intersection graph $Γ_C$. We show that by replacing an appropriate neighborhood of $\cup C_i$ with a smoothing $W_S$ of a normal surface singularity $(S, 0)$ w…
