Let (Mn, g) be a complete non-compact K¨ahler manifold with non-negative and bounded holomorphic bisectional curvature. We prove that M is holomorphically covered by a pseudoconvex domain in Cn which is homeomorphic to R2n, provided (Mn, g) has uniform linear average quadratic curvature decay.

Given a negatively curved geodesic metric space M, we study the almost sure asymptotic penetration behavior of (locally) geodesic lines of M into small neighborhoods of points, of closed geodesics, and of other compact (locally) convex subsets of M. We prove Khintchine-type and logarithm law-type results for the spiraling of geodesic lines around these objets. As a consequence in the tree setting, we obtain Diophantine approximation results of elements of non-archimedian local fields by quadratic irrational ones.

We construct a solution to inverse mean curvature flow on an asymptotically hyperbolic 3-manifold which does not have the convergence properties needed in order to prove a Penrose–type inequality. This contrasts sharply with the asymptotically flat case. The main idea consists in combining inverse mean curvature flow with work done by Shi–Tam regarding boundary behavior of compact manifolds. Assuming the Penrose inequality holds, we also derive a nontrivial inequality for functions on S2.

In this paper, we build properly embedded singly periodic minimal surfaces which have infinite total curvature in the quotient by their period. These surfaces are constructed by adding a handle to the toroidal half-plane layers defined by H. Karcher. The technics that we use are to solve a Jenkins-Serrin problem over a strip domain and to consider the conjugate minimal surface to the graph. To construct the Jenkins Serrin graph, we solve in fact the maximal surface equation and use an other conjugation technic.

Quasilocal mass in general relativity is a notion defined for a closed space like 2-surface in spacetime. In this note, we explain the definition in [23] and [24] from a mathematical viewpoint, emphasizing the connection to differential geometry and nonlinear partial differential equations. We also discuss a minimax interpretation of the definition and compare with other notions of quasilocal mass.
