Abstract

In this paper, we study the precise asymptotics of noncompact Type-IIb solutions to the mean curvature flow. Precisely, for each real number γ>0\gamma>0, we construct mean curvature flow solutions, in the rotationally symmetric class, with the following precise asymptotics as tt\nearrow\infty: (1) The highest curvature concentrates at the tip of the hypersurface (an umbilical point) and blows up at the Type-IIb rate (2t+1)(γ1)/2(2t+1)^{(\gamma-1)/2}. (2) In a neighbourhood of the tip, the Type-IIb blow-up of the solution converges to a translating soliton known as the bowl soliton. (3) Near spatial infinity, the hypersurface has a precise growth rate depending on γ\gamma.
