چکیده

Let γ be a Jordan curve in S, considered as the ideal boundary of H 3. Under certain circumstances it is known that for any c ∈ (−1, 1), there is a disc of constant mean curvature c embedded in H3 with γ as its ideal boundary. Using analysis and numerical experiments, we examine whether or not these surfaces in fact foliate H3, and to what extent the known conditions on the curve can be relaxed.

Hyperbolic surfaces of $L_1$-2-type

In this paper, we show that an $L_1$-2-type surface in the three-dimensional hyperbolic space $H^3subset R^4_1$ either is an open piece of a standard Riemannian product $ H^1(-sqrt{1+r^2})times S^{1}(r)$, or it has non constant mean curvature, non constant Gaussian curvature, and non constant principal curvatures.

Constant curvature foliations in asymptotically hyperbolic spaces

Let (M, g) be an asymptotically hyperbolic manifold with a smooth conformal compactification. We establish a general correspondence between semilinear elliptic equations of scalar curvature type on ∂M and Weingarten foliations in some neighbourhood of infinity inM . We focus mostly on foliations where each leaf has constant mean curvature, though our results apply equally well to foliations whe...

On the Geometry of Constant Mean Curvature One Surfaces in Hyperbolic Space

We give a geometric classification of regular ends with constant mean curvature 1 and finite total curvature, embedded in hyperbolic space. We prove that each such end is either asymptotic to a catenoid cousin or asymptotic to a horosphere. We also study symmetry properties of constant mean curvature 1 surfaces in hyperbolic space associated to minimal surfaces in Euclidean space. We describe t...

On the k-nullity foliations in Finsler geometry

Here, a Finsler manifold $(M,F)$ is considered with corresponding curvature tensor, regarded as $2$-forms on the bundle of non-zero tangent vectors. Certain subspaces of the tangent spaces of $M$ determined by the curvature are introduced and called $k$-nullity foliations of the curvature operator. It is shown that if the dimension of foliation is constant, then the distribution is involutive...
