Abstract

We establish codimension-independent mass bounds for geometrically confined area-minimizing rectifiable currents. In Euclidean space, we combine the confined-volume doubling theorem of Colding--Minicozzi with a current-theoretic squashing argument. This gives an affirmative answer to Lin's interior mass-bound problem for every algebraic projection multiplicity $Q$: the interior mass is bounded by $C(n)Q$, without an a priori mass bound at a larger scale. This result yields a degree-one Bernstein-type rigidity result under sublinear confinement. For the hyperbolic application, we make the curvature modification of the fixed-scale argument needed in a thin tubular neighborhood of a totally geodesic copy of $\mathbb{H}^n$. Combining this auxiliary estimate with a localized squashing estimate removes the doubly exponential local mass-growth condition from the boundary regularity results in [13].

Dimension-free estimates for full discrete maximal functions associated with Euclidean balls and spheres

We prove that the full discrete Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator associated with Euclidean balls satisfies dimension-free bounds on $\ell^p(\mathbb Z^d)$ for every $1<p<\infty$. We also establish analogous dimension-free bounds for the full discrete spherical maximal operator when $d\geq 5$ and $2\leq p<\infty$. The m...

Sharp Volume-Based Bounds for BMO Functions on Compact Domains and Applications

We establish sharp localized $L^r$ bounds for compactly supported functions of bounded mean oscillation (BMO). Classical estimates obtained via the John-Nirenberg inequality bound the $L^r$ norm of such a function in terms of the diameter of its support. We show that the diameter dependence can be replaced by the Lebes...

Area and diameter gaps for hyperbolic monotiles

For each fixed $n$, we prove a positive lower bound for the diameter of a compact simple geodesic $n$-gonal monotile of the hyperbolic plane. We also prove a positive lower bound for the area of such a tile in a finite monohedral tiling of a closed hyperbolic surface, independent of the topology and metric. Both bounds...

Finite index constant mean curvature hypersurfaces in space forms of dimension at most seven

We study complete two-sided constant-mean-curvature hypersurfaces of dimensions $2\le n\le6$ and finite Morse index in simply connected space forms. In the round sphere the immersed domain is compact; in Euclidean space every noncompact example is minimal; in hyperbolic space of curvature $-1$ we obtain compactness und...

$L^2$ Curvature Bounds for Area-Minimizing Currents Mod(2)

We prove \emph{a priori} interior $L^2$ bounds for the second fundamental form of area-minimizing currents modulo $2$ in every dimension $n\geq 2$ and arbitrary codimension. The bounds depend only on the dimension, codimension, and an upper bound for the mass. As a corollary, we show that area-minimizing surfaces modul...

Minimality and Nonlinear Spectral Rigidity of Hypersurfaces in Real Space Forms

We study nonlinear mean-curvature spectral equations for hypersurfaces in Euclidean, spherical and hyperbolic space. For an admissible analytic response $F$ and ambient sectional curvature $c$, we prove minimality when the spectral parameter satisfies $\sigma\ge nc$, and strict mean-curvature bounds at gradient points...
