Title: The $\mu$-bubble Construction of Capillary Surfaces

Abstract: We introduce a method of constructing (generalized) capillary surfaces via Gromov's "$\mu$-bubble" method. Using this, we study low-dimensional manifolds with nonnegative scalar curvature and strictly mean convex boundary. We prove a fill-in question of Gromov, a band-width estimate, and a compactness conjecture of Martin. Li in the case of surfaces.
Introduction: Yujie Wu is currently a Ph.D. Student at Stanford University advised by Prof. Otis Chodosh. Her research focused on geometric analysis and PDEs, in particular minimal surface theory and the Allen Cahn equation.
