For each integer $k\geq 1$, we study the $(k+1)$-dimensional helicoid $H_k\subset\mathbb{R}^{2k+1}$ parametrized by \[ (u_1,\ldots,u_k,s) \longmapsto \bigl(u_1e^{is},\ldots,u_ke^{is},s\bigr) \in \mathbb{C}^k\times\mathbb{R}\cong \mathbb{R}^{2k+1}. \] These helicoids form a basic and distinguished family of complete, pr...

For $m=2,3$, we prove that every smooth immersion $F:\mathbb{R}\mathbb{P}^m\looparrowright\overline{\mathbb B}^{,N}(1)$ satisfies $\kappa(F)^2\ge 2m/(m+1)$, with equality only for the Veronese embedding, up to congruence. We also prove that a closed, connected, orientable three-manifold admitting an immersion into a Eu...
Let $M$ be a connected smooth $n$-manifold without boundary, where $n\geq3$, and let $\kappa\in\mathbb{R}$, with $\kappa\leq0$ if $M$ is open. We prove that every smooth Riemannian metric $g_0$ with $\mathrm{Scal}_{g_0}\geq\kappa$ is a locally uniform limit of smooth Riemannian metrics $g_i$ with $\mathrm{Scal}_{g_i}=\...
For a smooth immersion $F:\mathbb{R}\mathbb{P}^m\looparrowright \overline{\mathbb{B}}^{N}(1)$, we observe that the sharp systolic inequality forces a sharp lower bound on its maximal normal curvature $\kappa(F)$. In dimensions $m=2,3$, the sharp inequalities of Pu and Bray--Brendle--Eichmair--Neves therefore give $\kap...
