Special Riemannian metric on the product

Let $M^2$ be an orientable surface with boundary endowed with a Riemannian metric $g$. We know that if we put in the manifold $M \times \mathbb{R}$ the product metric $\overline{g} = g + dt^2$, then t …

Convergence of free boundary minimal surfaces

I suspect the following statement is true: Let $(M^3,g)$ be a compact and orientable Riemannian $3$-manifold with nonempty boundary. Let $\{\Sigma_n\}_{n \geq 1}$ be a sequence of compact and orie …

Infinitely many distinct minimal tori

Let $M = \Sigma_g \times \mathbb{S}^1$ be endowed with the product metric, where $\Sigma_g$ is a compact orientable surface of genus $g$ with an arbitrary fixed metric. Is it true that there are infin …

$1$-parameter family of minimal embeddings and the maximum principle

Let $M^3$ be a closed orientable smooth manifold and let $g_t$ be a (smooth) $1$-parameter family of Riemannian metrics on $M$, $t \in \mathbb{R}$. Let $P \subset M$ a fixed closed orientable embedded …

Minimizing area in relative homology class

A well known result in geometric measure theory asserts that if $(M^{n+1}, g)$ is a closed Riemannian manifold and $\alpha \in H_n(M)$ is a nonzero homology class, then there exists a closed embedded …

Can this integral be made nonpositive?

Let $M^2 \subset \mathbb{S}^3$ be a closed and orientable embedded (and minimal, if important) surface. Choose a unit normal vector field $\eta: M \to \mathbb{S}^3$ along $M$ and a point $p_0 \in \mat …

Space of embedded minimal surfaces of fixed genus in a generic $3$-manifold

Let $M^3$ be a closed, connected and oriented smooth $3$-manifold, and fix an integer $g \geq 1$. Is it true that for a generic set of Riemannian metrics on $M$ the set of closed, connected and orient …

Critical points of the area functional restricted to CMC embeddings

For fixed closed smooth manifolds $M^n$ and $N^{n+1}$, two $C^{k,\alpha}$ embeddings $f, f' : M \to N$ are said to be equivalent if there exists $\varphi \in \operatorname{Diff}(M)$ such that $f' = f …
