DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/DGSTO/24/">T
 he Bernstein problem for Weingarten surfaces</a>\nby Pablo Mira (Universid
 ad Politécnica de Cartagena) as part of Differential Geometry Seminar Tor
 ino\n\n\nAbstract\nA surface in Euclidean $3$-space is an elliptic Weingar
 ten surface if its principal curvatures are related by a smooth\, symmetri
 c\, elliptic equation $W(k_1\,k_2)=0$. A well known open problem\, propose
 d for instance by Rosenberg and Sa Earp in 1994\, is to solve the Bernstei
 n problem for this class of surfaces\, that is: are planes the only entire
  elliptic Weingarten graphs? Up to now\, it is only known that the answer 
 is positive if the Weingarten equation is uniformly elliptic\, i.e.\, if t
 he derivatives of $W$ with respect to $k_1$ and $k_2$ lie between two posi
 tive constants (for example\, minimal or CMC surfaces are uniformly ellipt
 ic with this terminology). This result follows from a deep theorem by L. S
 imon on entire graphs with quasiconformal Gauss map.  In this talk we pres
 ent two theorems. In the first one\, we extend the solution to the Bernste
 in problem in the uniformly elliptic case to multigraphs\, proving that pl
 anes are the only complete uniformly elliptic Weingarten surfaces whose Ga
 uss map image lies in an open hemisphere. In the second one\, we will solv
 e in the affirmative the Bernstein problem for Weingarten graphs for a lar
 ge class of non-uniformly elliptic Weingarten equations. This is a joint w
 ork with Isabel Fernández and José A. Gálvez.\n
