Abstract

For every closed set KRnK \subset \mathbb{R}^n and every m2m \geq 2, we construct a mean-convex ancient solution to mean curvature flow of hypersurfaces in Rm+n\mathbb{R}^{m+n}, with respect to a smooth Riemannian metric arbitrarily CC^\infty-close to the Euclidean metric, whose first-time singular set is exactly K×{0}K \times \{0\}.
