Some progress in conformal geometry.
On the Paneitz energy on standard three sphere
We prove that the Paneitz energy on the standard three-sphere is bounded from below and extremal metrics must be conformally equivalent to the standard metric.

On a fourth order equation in 3-D
In this article we study the positivity of the 4-th order Paneitz operator for closed 3-manifolds. We prove that the connected sum of two such 3-manifold retains the same positivity property. We also solve the analogue of the Yamabe equation for such a manifold.

Minimal surfaces in pseudohermitian geometry
We consider surfaces immersed in three-dimensional pseudohermitian manifolds. We define the notion of (p-)mean curvature and of the associated (p-)minimal surfaces, extending some concepts previously given for the (flat) Heisenberg group. We interpret the p-mean curvature not only as the tangential sublaplacian of a defining function, but also as the curvature of a characteristic curve, and as a quantity in terms of calibration geometry. As a differential equation, the p-minimal surface equation...
