Parabolic evolution with boundary to the Bishop family of holomorphic discs

Brendan Guilfoyle, Wilhelm Klingenberg

It is proven that a definite graphical rotationally symmetric line congruence evolving under mean curvature flow with respect to the neutral Kaehler metric in the space of oriented…

A capillary problem for spacelike mean curvature flow in a cone of Minkowski space

Wilhelm Klingenberg, Ben Lambert, Julian Scheuer

Consider a convex cone in three-dimensional Minkowski space which either contains the lightcone or is contained in it. This work considers mean curvature flow of a proper spacelike…

Local non-injectivity of the exponential map at critical points in sub-Riemannian geometry

Samuël Borza, Wilhelm Klingenberg

We prove that the sub-Riemannian exponential map is not injective in any neighbourhood of certain critical points. Namely that it does not behave like the injective map of reals gi…

Roots of Polynomials and Umbilics of Surfaces

Brendan Guilfoyle, Wilhelm Klingenberg

For certain polynomials we relate the number of roots inside the unit circle with the index of a non-degenerate isolated umbilic point on a real analytic surface in Euclidean 3-spa…

Regularity and Continuity properties of the sub-Riemannian exponential map

Samuël Borza, Wilhelm Klingenberg

We prove a version of Warner's regularity and continuity properties for the sub-Riemannian exponential map. The regularity property is established by considering sub-Riemannian Jac…

Proof of the Toponogov Conjecture on Complete Surfaces

Brendan Guilfoyle, Wilhelm Klingenberg

We prove a conjecture of Toponogov on complete convex planes, namely that such planes must contain an umbilic point, albeit at infinity. Our proof is indirect. It uses Fredholm reg…
