Proves existence of non-planar minimal disks in ellipsoids.

It was recently shown that the Carathéodory and Teichmüller metrics on the Teichmüller space of a closed surface do not coincide. On the other hand, Kra earlier showed that the metrics coincide when restricted to a Teichmüller disk generated by a differential with no odd-order zeros. Our aim is to classify Teichmüller …

Using generalized Riemann maps, normal forms for almost complex domains (D, J) with singular foliations by stationary disks are defined. Such normal forms are used to construct counterexamples and to determine intrinsic conditions, under which the stationary disks are extremal disks for the Kobayashi metric or determin…

An ansatz of Calabi allows construction of Kahler metrics in an Hermitian disk bundle over a Kahler manifold. We attempt to give a definitive treatment of this ansatz, with the following results: We give curvature conditions on the disk bundle that guarantee existence of families of complete Kahler metrics of constant …

This paper shows that every totally-geodesic isometry from the unit disk to a finite-dimensional Teichmüller space for the intrinsic Kobayashi metric is either holomorphic or anti-holomorphic; in particular, it is a Teichmüller disk. Additionally, a similar result is proved for a large class of disk-rigid domains, whic…

Thurston's circle packing approximation of the Riemann Mapping (proven to give the Riemann Mapping in the limit by Rodin-Sullivan) is largely based on the theorem that any topological disk with a circle packing metric can be deformed into a circle packing metric in the disk with boundary circles internally tangent to t…

We give a parametrization to the asymptotic Teichmuller space of the open unit disk through equivalent classes of shear functions induced by quasisymmetric homeomorphisms on the Farey tesselation of the unit disk. Then using the parametrization, we define a new metric on the asymptotic Teichmuller space. Two other rela…

Using the techniques developed in \cite{SunSun}, we give estimations of the Bergman kernel of the punctured disk with the standard complete Poincaré metric. As an application, we improve the result of \cite{AMM} on the Bergman kernels of punctured Riemann surfaces near singularities.

We give a distance estimate for the metric on the disk complex and show that it is Gromov hyperbolic. As another application of our techniques, we find an algorithm which computes the Hempel distance of a Heegaard splitting, up to an error depending only on the genus.

Let $Φ$ be a strictly plurisubharmonic and radial function on the unit disk ${\cal D}\subset {\complex}$ and let $g$ be the \K metric associated to the \K form $ω=\frac{i}{2}\partial\bar\partialΦ$. We prove that if $g$ is $g_{eucl}$-balanced of height 3 (where $g_{eucl}$ is the standard Euclidean metric on ${\complex}=…

In this paper a new connection between the discrete conformal geometry problem of disk pattern construction and the continuous conformal geometry problem of metric uniformization is presented. In a nutshell, we discuss how to construct disk patterns by optimizing an objective function, which turns out to be intimately …

We find a family of Kähler metrics invariantly defined on the radius $r_0>0$ tangent disk bundle ${{\cal T}_{M,r_0}}$ of any given real space-form $M$ or any of its quotients by discrete groups of isometries. Such metrics are complete in the non-negative curvature case and non-complete in the negative curvature case. I…

A Zoll metric is a Riemannian metric whose geodesics are all circles of equal length. Via the twistor correspondence of LeBrun and Mason, a Zoll metric on the 2 dimensional sphere corresponds to a family of holomorphic disks in CP_2 with boundary in a totally real submanifold P. In this paper, we show that for a fixed …

We consider cohomogeneity one homogeneous disk bundles and adress the question when these admit a nonnegatively curved invariant metric with normal collar, i.e., such that near the boundary the metric is the product of an interval and a normal homogeneous space. If such a bundle is not (the quotient of) a trivial bundl…

Given a hyperbolic surface and a simple closed geodesic on it, complex-twists along the curve produce a holomorphic family of deformations in Teichmüller space, degenerating to the Riemann surface where it is pinched. We show there is a corresponding Teichmüller disk such that the two are strongly asymptotic, in the Te…

For a smooth immersion $f$ from the punctured disk $D\backslash\{0\}$ into $\mathbb{R}^n$ extendable continuously at the puncture, if its mean curvature is square integrable and the measure of $f(D)\cap B_{r_k}=o(r_k)$ for a sequence $r_k\to 0$, we show that the Riemannian surface $(D_r\backslash\{0\},g)$ where $g$ is …
