Diameter bounds by mean curvature and area

I'm wondering about a generalization of Simon/Topping/Wu-Zheng's results on bounding diameter by the mean curvature, which roughly says: given a closed $\Sigma^{n-1} \subseteq M^n$, $$\text{diam}(\...

Existence of solution to prescribed curvature problem with given asymptotic on the punctured unit disc

I have trouble understanding a conclusion in the following paper: Prescribed Curvature and Singularities of Conformal Metrics on Riemann Surfaces by Robert C. McOwen In the appendix, part B, we are ...

Curvature estimate in terms of the boundary

The curvature of a minimal disc $S^2 \subset \mathbf{R}^3$ can be bounded in terms of the curvature of its boundary via the Gauss–Bonnet formula: \begin{equation} \frac{1}{2}\int_S \lvert A \rvert^2 \...

Asymptotics of constant mean curvature surfaces

Let $\Sigma^n \subset \mathbf{R}^{n+1}$ be a complete, properly embedded hypersurface with constant, non-zero mean curvature $H \neq 0.$ In the case where the dimension is $n = 2$, $\Sigma$ is non-...

Is there a combinatorial analogue of the Kazdan Warner theorem?

First let me state a result of Kazdan and Warner Let $M$ be a compact orientable two dimensional manifold. Let $f:M \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ be a function that has the same sign as the Euler ...
