In this article we study the breathers of the mean curvature flow in the Euclidean space. A breather is a solution to the mean curvature flow which repeats itself up to isometry and scaling once in a while. We prove several no breather…
We study space-like self-shrinkers of dimension $n$ in pseudo-Euclidean space $\ir{m+n}_m$with index $m$. We derive drift Laplacian of the basic geometric quantities and obtain their volume estimates in pseudo-distance function. Finally, we…
In this paper we construct an end of a self-similar shrinking solution of the mean curvature flow asymptotic to an isoparametric cone C and lying outside of C. We call a cone C in $R^{n+1}$ an isoparametric cone if C is the cone over a…
We make rigorous an old idea of using mean curvature flow to prove a theorem of Richard Hamilton on the compactness of proper hypersurfaces with pinched, bounded curvature.
In this paper, we formulate the notion of the $\mathcal{F}$-stability of self-shrinking solutions to mean curvature flow in arbitrary codimension. Then we give some classifications of the $\mathcal{F}$-stable self-shrinkers in arbitrary…
We prove uniqueness of tangent cones for forced mean curvature flow, at both closed self-shrinkers and round cylindrical self-shrinkers, in any codimension. The corresponding results for mean curvature flow in Euclidean space were proven by…
Let $M\subset {\mathbf R}^{m+1}$ be a smooth, closed, codimension-one self-shrinker (for mean curvature flow) with nontrivial $k^{\rm th}$ homology. We show that the entropy of $M$ is greater than or equal to the entropy of a round…
In this article we prove an unknottedness result for self shrinkers in $\mathbb{R}^3$ with multiple asymptotically conical ends which bound a handlebody in a natural sense, using the mean curvature flow. As a corollary of this and previous…
We discuss recent results on minimal surfaces and mean curvature flow, focusing on the classification and structure of embedded minimal surfaces and the stable singularities of mean curvature flow. This article is dedicated to Rick Schoen.
We consider a compact, star-shaped, mean convex hypersurface $\Sigma^2\subset \mathbb{R}^3$. We prove that in some cases the flow exists until it shrinks to a point in a spherical manner, which is very typical for convex surfaces as well…
For each positive integer $g$ we use variational methods to construct a genus $g$ self-shrinker $\Sigma_g$ in $\mathbb{R}^3$ with entropy less than $2$ and prismatic symmetry group $\mathbb{D}_{g+1}\times\mathbb{Z}_2$. For $g$ sufficiently…
We prove the Multiplicity One Conjecture for mean curvature flows of surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$. Specifically, we show that any blow-up limit of such mean curvature flows has multiplicity one. This has several applications. First, combining…
In this article, we establish some uniqueness and symmetry results of self-similar solutions to curvature flows by some homogeneous speed functions of principal curvatures in some warped product spaces. In particular, we proved that any…
Given a smooth, symmetric, homogeneous of degree one function $f=f\left(\lambda_{1},\cdots,\,\lambda_{n}\right)$ satisfying $\partial_{i}f>0$ for all $i=1,\cdots,\, n$, and an oriented, properly embedded smooth cone $\mathcal{C}^n$ in…
In this paper, we prove uniform curvature estimates for immersed stable free boundary minimal hypersurfaces which satisfy a uniform area bound. Our result is a natural generalization of the celebrated Schoen-Simon-Yau interior curvature…
We prove that all entire smooth strictly convex self-shrinking solutions on $\mathbb{R}^n$ to the Hessian quotient flows must be quadratic. This generalizes the rigidity theorem for entire self-shrinking solutions to the Lagrangian mean…
In this paper, we study scalar curvature of $n$-dimensional self-shrinkers in the Euclidean space $\mathbb R^{n+1}$. If the scalar curvature of an $n$-dimensional self-shrinker is a positive constant, then we prove that the scalar curvature…
In this paper, we prove a sharp convergence theorem for the mean curvature flow of arbitrary codimension in spheres which improves Baker's convergence theorem. In particular, we obtain a new differentiable sphere theorem for submanifolds in…
We derive intrinsic curvature and radius estimates for compact disks embedded in $\mathbb{R}^3$ with nonzero constant mean curvature and apply these estimates to study the global geometry of complete surfaces embedded in $\mathbb{R}^3$ with…
In this paper, we mainly study immersed self-expander hypersurfaces in Euclidean space whose mean curvatures have some linear growth controls. We discuss the volume growths and the finiteness of the weighted volumes. We prove some theorems…
