We consider the mean curvature flow of the graph of a smooth map $f:\mathbb{R}^2\to\mathbb{R}^2$ between two-dimensional Euclidean spaces. If $f$ satisfies an area-decreasing property, the solution exists for all times and the evolving…

Mean curvature flow evolves isometrically immersed base manifolds $M$ in the direction of their mean curvatures in an ambient manifold $\bar{M}$. If the base manifold $M$ is compact, the short time existence and uniqueness of the mean…

We are interested in the impact of entropies on the geometry of a hypersurface of a Riemannian manifold. In fact, we will be able to compare the volume entropy of a hypersurface with that of the ambient manifold, provided some geometric…

Many physical situations are characterized by interfaces with a non trivial shape so that relevant geometric features, such as interfacial area, curvature or unit normal vector, can be used as main indicators of the topology of the…

In this paper we introduce a new geometric flow --- the hyperbolic gradient flow for graphs in the $(n+1)$-dimensional Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$. This kind of flow is new and very natural to understand the geometry of manifolds. We…
