We construct new expanders for mean curvature flow that are smoothly asymptotic to cones arising from certain shrinkers. For each such cone, we prove the existence of expanders of arbitrarily large genus. Thus, for a fixed incoming…

We derive a parabolic version of Omori-Yau maximum principle for a proper mean curvature flow when the ambient space has lower bound on $\ell$-sectional curvature. We apply this to show that the image of Gauss map is preserved under a…

The purpose of this paper is twofold: firstly, to establish sufficient conditions under which the mean curvature flow supported on a hypersphere with exterior Dirichlet boundary exists globally in time and converges to a minimal surface,…

We propose a construction of mean curvature flows by approximation for very general initial data, in the spirit of the works of Brakke and of Kim & Tonegawa based on the theory of varifolds. Given a general varifold, we construct by…

We consider the long-time behavior of the mean curvature flow in heterogeneous media with periodic fibrations, modeled as an additive driving force. Under appropriate assumptions on the forcing term, we show existence of generalized…

This note revisits the inverse mean curvature flow in the 3-dimensional hyperbolic space. In particular, we show that the limiting shape is not necessarily round after scaling, thus resolving an inconsistency in the literature.

A family of hypersurfaces evolves by mean curvature flow if the velocity at each point is given by the mean curvature vector. Mean curvature flow is the most natural evolution equation in extrinsic geometry, and has been extensively studied…
