Abstract

This paper studies rigidity for immersed self-shrinkers of the mean curvature flow of surfaces in the three-dimensional Euclidean space R3.\mathbb{R}^3. We prove that an immersed self-shrinker with finite LL-index must be proper and of finite topology. As one of consequences, there is no stable two-dimensional self-shrinker in R3\mathbb{R}^3 without assuming properness. We conclude the paper by giving an affirmative answer to a question of Mantegazza.
