A remark on almost umbilical hypersurfaces

Julien Roth (2013)

Archivum Mathematicum

In this article, we prove new stability results for almost-Einstein hypersurfaces of the Euclidean space, based on previous eigenvalue pinching results. Then, we deduce some comparable results for almost umbilical hypersurfaces.

A rigidity theorem for Riemann's minimal surfaces

Pascal Romon (1993)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

We describe first the analytic structure of Riemann’s examples of singly-periodic minimal surfaces; we also characterize them as extensions of minimal annuli bounded by parallel straight lines between parallel planes. We then prove their uniqueness as solutions of the perturbed problem of a punctured annulus, and we present standard methods for determining finite total curvature periodic minimal surfaces and solving the period problems.

Algebraic representation formulas for null curves in Sl(2,ℂ)

Hubert Gollek (2005)

Banach Center Publications

We study curves in Sl(2,ℂ) whose tangent vectors have vanishing length with respect to the biinvariant conformal metric induced by the Killing form, so-called null curves. We establish differential invariants of them that resemble infinitesimal arc length, curvature and torsion of ordinary curves in Euclidean 3-space. We discuss various differential-algebraic representation formulas for null curves. One of them, a modification of the Bianchi-Small formula, gives an Sl(2,ℂ)-equivariant bijection...
