Previous work concerning boundary regularity of solutions of the non-parametric least area problem leaves open the question of regularity of solutions at points where the mean curvature of the boundary of the domain vanishes. We here prove that the solutions may be discontinuous at such points, even when the given boundary data is smooth. We also give a sufficient condition which will ensure continuity at such points.

We obtain global estimates for the modulus, interior gradient estimates, and boundary Hölder continuity estimates for solutionsuto the capillarity problem and to the Dirichlet problem for the mean curvature equation merely in terms of the mean curvature, together with the boundary contact angle in the capillarity problem and the boundary values in the Dirichlet problem.

Abstract We study an inhomogeneous Neumann boundary value problem for functions of least gradient on bounded domains in metric spaces that are equipped with a doubling measure and support a Poincaré inequality. We show that solutions exist under certain regularity assumptions on the domain, but are generally nonunique. We also show that solutions can be taken to be differences of two characteristic functions, and that they are regular up to the boundary when the boundary is of positive mean curvature. By regular up to the boundary we mean that if the boundary data is 1 in a neighborhood of a point on the boundary of the domain, then the solution is −1 in the intersection of the domain with a possibly smaller neighborhood of that point. Finally, we consider the stability of solutions with respect to boundary data.

Abstract In this paper, we study an obstacle problem associated with the mean curvature flow with constant driving force. Our first main result concerns interior and boundary regularity of the solution. We then study in details the large time behavior of the solution and obtain the convergence result. In particular, we give full characterization of the limiting profiles in the radially symmetric setting.

In this paper, we establish some optimal inequalities for the squared mean curvature in terms warping functions of a C-totally real doubly warped product submanifold of a locally conformal almost cosymplectic manifold with a pointwise ?-sectional curvature c. The equality case in the statement of inequalities is also considered. Moreover, some applications of obtained results are derived.
