Abstract

In the article, we generalize some recent results of Colding and Minicozzi on generic singularities of mean curvature flow to curved ambient spaces. To do so, we make use of a weighted monotonicity formula to derive an "almost monotonicity" for the entropy upon embedding into $\R^\ell$ . We are also lead to study the continuity of the entropy functional in certain cases.
