Uniqueness of entire graphs evolving by Mean Curvature flow

Abstract

In this paper we study the uniqueness of graphical mean curvature flow. We consider as initial conditions graphs of locally Lipschitz functions and prove that in the one dimensional case solutions are unique without any further assumptions. This result is then generalized for rotationally symmetric solutions. In the general nn- dimensional case, we prove uniqueness under additional conditions: we require a { \em uniform lower bound } on the second fundamental form and the height function of the initial condition. The latter result extends to initial conditions that are proper graphs over subdomains of Rn\mathbb{R}^n.

Proposition 4.1 was eliminated and an assumption was added. The proof of Theorem 1.3 was updated accordingly
