Sharp curvature inequality extends Euclidean isoperimetric inequality to Cartan-Hadamard manifolds.

In [15] Robert Osserman proved that the image of the Gauss map of a complete, non flat minimal surface in R^3 with finite total curvature miss at most 3 points. In this paper we prove that the Gauss map of such a minimal immersions omit at most 2 points. This is a sharp result since the Gauss map of the catenoid omits …

The total curvature of complex hypersurfaces in $\bC^{n+1}$ and its variation in families appear to depend not only on singularities but also on the behaviour in the neighbourhood of infinity. We find the asymptotic loss of total curvature towards infinity and we express the total curvature and the Gauss-Bonnet defect …

Estimates Bartnik mass for metrics with nonnegative Gauss curvature.

The purpose of this paper is to reveal the relationship between the total curvature and the global behavior of the Gauss map of a complete minimal Lagrangian surface in the complex two-space. To achieve this purpose, we show the precise maximal number of exceptional values of the Gauss map for a complete minimal Lagran…

We use the solution space of a pair of ODEs of at least second order to construct a smooth surface in Euclidean space. We describe when this surface is a proper embedding which is geodesically complete with finite total Gauss curvature. If the associated roots of the ODEs are real and distinct, we give a universal uppe…

In this article, we propose some conditions on the modified defect relations of the Gauss map of a complete minimal surface $M$ to show that $M$ has finite total curvature.

Study shows curvature bounds for convex hypersurfaces in specific manifolds.

In this article, we give the non-integrated defect relations for the Gauss map of a complete minimal surface with finite total curvature in $\mathbb R^m.$ This is a continuation of previous work of Ha-Trao [J. Math. Anal. Appl., \textbf{430} (2015), 76-84.], which we extend here to targets of higher dimension.

Embedded minimal surfaces of finite total curvature in $\mathbb{R}^3$ are reasonably well understood: From far away, they look like intersecting catenoids and planes, suitably desingularized. We consider the larger class of harmonic embeddings in $\mathbb{R}^{3}$ of compact Riemann surfaces with finitely many punctures…

A spacelike surface in four-dimensional Lorentz-Minkowski spacetime through the lightcone has a meaningful lightlike normal vector field $η$. Several sufficient assumptions on such a surface with non-degenerate $η$-second fundamental form are established to prove that it must be a totally umbilical round sphere. With t…

Study finite curvature solutions on surfaces with nonnegative Gauss curvature.

In a recent paper Jorge and Mercuri proved that the image of Gauss map of a complete non flat minimal surfaces in R3 with finite total curvature omits at most 2 points. In this work we follow their idea and prove 3a similar result for CMC-1 with finite total curvature in H and CMC-1 faces with finite type and regular e…

Paper constructs a minimal surface with specific ends and curvature.

We give the best possible upper bound on the number of exceptional values and the totally ramified value number of the hyperbolic Gauss map for pseudo-algebraic constant mean curvature one surfaces in the hyperbolic three-space and some partial results on the Osserman problem for algebraic case. Moreover, we study the …

Let $F:Σ^n \times [0,T)\to \R^{n+m}$ be a family of compact immersed submanifolds moving by their mean curvature vectors. We show the Gauss maps $γ:(Σ^n, g_t)\to G(n, m)$ form a harmonic heat flow with respect to the time-dependent induced metric $g_t$. This provides a more systematic approach to investigating higher c…

We consider a relaxed notion of energy of non-parametric codimension one surfaces that takes account of area, mean curvature, and Gauss curvature. It is given by the best value obtained by approximation with inscribed polyhedral surfaces. The BV and measure properties of functions with finite relaxed energy are studied…

We prove that strong finite total curvature complete hypersurfaces of (n+1)-euclidean space are proper and diffeomorphic to a compact manifold minus finitely many points. With an additional condition, we also prove that the Gauss map of such hypersurfaces extends continuously to the punctures.

This paper has been removed. It is already a well known result.

The paper investigates higher dimensional analogues of Burago's inequality bounding the area of a closed surface by its total curvature. We obtain sufficient conditions for hypersurfaces in 4-space that involve the Ricci curvature. We get semi-local variants of the inequality holding in any dimension that involve domai…

In [31,32,33] the Gauss-Bonnet formulas for coherent tangent bundles over compact oriented surfaces (without boundary) were proved. We establish the Gauss-Bonnet theorem for coherent tangent bundles over compact oriented surfaces with boundary. We apply this theorem to investigate global properties of maps between surf…

New geometric inequality for mass from immersed submanifolds.

Classifies solitons on invariant surfaces in solvable Lie group.

In 1963, K.P.Grotemeyer proved an interesting variant of the Gauss-Bonnet Theorem. Let M be an oriented closed surface in the Euclidean space R^3 with Euler characteristic χ(M), Gauss curvature G and unit normal vector field n. Grotemeyer's identity replaces the Gauss-Bonnet integrand G by the normal moment <a,n>^2G, w…

Recall that a submanifold of a Riemannian manifold is said to be minimal if its mean curvature is zero. It is classical that minimal submanifolds are the critical points of the volume function. In this paper, we examine the critical points of the total $(2k)$-th Gauss-Bonnet curvature function, called $(2k)$-minimal su…

We generalise the classical Chern-Gauss-Bonnet formula to a class of 4-dimensional manifolds with finitely many conformally flat ends and singular points. This extends results of Chang-Qing-Yang in the smooth case. Under the assumptions of finite total Q curvature and positive scalar curvature at the ends and at the si…

We relate the total curvature and the isoperimetric deficit of a curve $γ$ in a two-dimensional space of constant curvature with the area enclosed by the evolute of $γ$. We provide also a Gauss-Bonnet theorem for a special class of evolutes.

In this paper we extend Efimov's Theorem by proving that any complete surface in $\mathbb{R}^3$ with Gauss curvature bounded above by a negative constant outside a compact set has finite total curvature, finite area and is properly immersed. Moreover, its ends must be asymptotic to half-lines. We also give a partial so…

With the developments of the last decade on complete constant mean curvature 1 (CMC 1) surfaces in the hyperbolic 3-space $H^3$, many examples of such surfaces are now known. However, most of the known examples have regular ends. (An end is irregular, resp. regular, if the hyperbolic Gauss map of the surface has an ess…

For spacelike stationary (i.e. zero mean curvature) surfaces in 4-dimensional Lorentz space one can naturally introduce two Gauss maps and Weierstrass representation. In this paper we investigate their global geometry systematically. The total Gaussian curvature is related with the surface topology as well as the indic…

We obtain some nonexistence results for complete noncompact stable hyppersurfaces with nonnegative constant scalar curvature in Euclidean spaces. As a special case we prove that there is no complete noncompact strongly stable hypersurface $M$ in $\mathbb{R}^{4}$ with zero scalar curvature $S_2$, nonzero Gauss-Kronecker…

Consider a quantum particle trapped between a curved layer of constant width built over a complete, non-compact, $\mathcal C^2$ smooth surface embedded in $\mathbb{R}^3$. We assume that the surface is asymptotically flat in the sense that the second fundamental form vanishes at infinity, and that the surface is not tot…

We prove a Gauss-Bonnet formula for the extrinsic curvature of complete surfaces in hyperbolic space under some assumptions on the asymptotic behaviour. The result is given in terms of the measure of geodesics intersecting the surface non-trivially, and of a conformal invariant of the curve at infinity.

Formula calculates manifold Euler characteristic from curvature.

We study the second order invariants of a Lorentzian surface in $\mathbb{R}^{2,2},$ and the curvature hyperbolas associated to its second fundamental form. Besides the four natural invariants, new invariants appear in some degenerate situations. We then introduce the Gauss map of a Lorentzian surface and give an extrin…

The study examines minimal surfaces in Riemannian products of surfaces.

Loewner inequality proven for curved surfaces.

We will construct surfaces of revolution with finite total curvature whose Gauss curvatures are not bounded. Such a surface of revolution is employed as a reference surface of comparison theorems in radial curvature geometry. Moreover, we will prove that a complete non-compact Riemannian manifold M is homeomorphic to t…

We study the supremum of the total mean curvature on the boundary of compact, mean-convex 3-manifolds with nonnegative scalar curvature, and a prescribed boundary metric. We establish an additivity property for this supremum and exhibit rigidity for maximizers assuming the supremum is attained. When the boundary consis…

Both analytic and geometric forms of an optimal monotone principle for $L^p$-integral of the Green function of a simply-connected planar domain $Ω$ with rectifiable simple curve as boundary are established through a sharp one-dimensional power integral estimate of Riemann-Stieltjes type and the Huber analytic and geome…

A surface is called a tube if its level-sets with respect to some coordinate function (the axis of the surface) are compact. Any tube of zero mean curvature has an invariant, the so-called flow vector. We study how the geometry of the Gaussian image of a higher-dimensional minimal tube M is controlled by the angle alph…

We consider harmonic immersions in $\R^{\N}$ of compact Riemann surfaces with finitely many punctures where the harmonic coordinate functions are given as real parts of meromorphic functions. We prove that such surfaces have finite total Gauss curvature. The contribution of each end is a multiple of $2π$, determined by…
