Unstable CMC spheres and outlying CMC spheres in AF 3-manifolds

In this paper, we introduce a non linear ODE method to construct CMC surfaces in Riemannian manifolds with symmetry. As an application we construct unstable CMC spheres and outlying CMC spheres in asymptotically Schwarzschild manifolds with metrics like $g_{ij}=(1+\frac{1}{l})^{2}δ_{ij}+O(l^{-2})$. The existence of unstable CMC spheres tells us that the stability condition in Qing-Tian's work [Qing-Tian-CMC] can not be removed generally.

On the radius pinching estimate and uniqueness of the CMC foliation in asymptotically flat 3-manifolds

In this paper we consider the uniqueness problem of the constant mean curvature spheres in asymptotically flat 3-manifolds. We require the metric have the form g_{ij}=δ_{ij}+h_{ij} with h_{ij}=O_{4}(r^{-1}) and R=O(r^{-3-τ}),τ>0. We do not require the metric to be close to Schwarzschild metric in any sense or to satisfy RT conditions. We prove that, when the mass is not 0, stable CMC spheres that separate a certain compact part from infinity satisfy the radius pinching estimate r_{1}\leq Cr_{0} , which in many cases is critical to prove the uniqueness of the CMC spheres. As applications of this estimate, we remove the radius conditions of the uniqueness result in [Huang-CMC] and [NERZ-CMC] in some special cases.

Uniqueness of the Foliation of Constant Mean Curvature Spheres in Asymptotically Flat 3-Manifolds

In this paper I study the constant mean curvature surface in asymptotically flat 3-manifolds with general asymptotics. Under some weak condition, I prove that outside some compact set in the asymptotically flat 3-manifold with positive mass, the foliation of stable spheres of constant mean curvature is unique.
