A strong Frankel Theorem for shrinkers

Differential Geometry 2025-08-20 v1

Abstract

We prove a strong Frankel theorem for mean curvature flow shrinkers in all dimensions: Any two shrinkers in a sufficiently large ball must intersect. In particular, the shrinker itself must be connected in all large balls. The key to the proof is a strong Bernstein theorem for incomplete stable Gaussian surfaces.
