There exist rotationally symmetric translating solutions to mean curvature flow that can be written as a graph over Euclidean space. This result is well-known. Its proof uses the symmetry and techniques from partial differential equations.…

This paper gives some examples of hypersurfaces $\phi_t(M^n)$ evolving in time with speed determined by functions of the normal curvatures in an $(n+1)$-dimensional hyperbolic manifold; we emphasize the case of flow by harmonic mean…

We study mean curvature flow of Lagrangians in $\mathbb{C}^n$ that are cohomogeneity-one with respect to a compact Lie group $G \leq \mathrm{SU}(n)$ acting linearly on $\mathbb{C}^n$. Each such Lagrangian necessarily lies in a level set…

We study the mean curvature flow of smooth $n$-dimensional compact submanifolds with quadratic pinching in a Riemannian manifold $\mathcal{N}^{n+m}$. Our main focus is on the case of high codimension, $m\geq 2$. We establish a codimension…

Lagrangian averaging theories, most notably the Generalised Lagrangian Mean (GLM) theory of Andrews & McIntyre (1978), have been primarily developed in Euclidean space and Cartesian coordinates. We re-interpret these theories using a…

In [SW2], we defined a generalized mean curvature vector field on any almost Lagrangian submanifold with respect to a torsion connection on an almost K\"ahler manifold. The short time existence of the corresponding parabolic flow was…

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 show that, for two-dimensional space-periodic incompressible flow, the solution can be evaluated numerically in Lagrangian coordinates with the same accuracy achieved in standard Eulerian spectral methods. This allows the determination…

We prove an optimal control on the time-dependent measure of a measurable set under a reparametrized Lagrangian mean curvature flow of almost calibrated submanifolds in a Calabi-Yau manifold. Moreover we give a classification of those…

It has long been conjectured that starting at a generic smooth closed embedded surface in R^3, the mean curvature flow remains smooth until it arrives at a singularity in a neighborhood of which the flow looks like concentric spheres or…

Lagrangian averaging plays an important role in the analysis of wave--mean-flow interactions and other multiscale fluid phenomena. The numerical computation of Lagrangian means, e.g. from simulation data, is however challenging. Typical…

We construct new examples of self-similar solutions and translating solitons for Lagrangian mean curvature flow by extending the method of Joyce, Lee and Tsui. Those examples include examples in which the Lagrangian angle is arbitrarily…

The Lagrangian derivatives of finite-time Lyapunov exponents and the corresponding characteristic directions are shown to satisfy time-asymptotic differential constraints in chaotic flows. The constraints are valid for any metric tensor,…

A mean curvature flow starting from a closed embedded hypersurface in $R^{n+1}$ must develop singularities. We show that if the flow has only generic singularities, then the space-time singular set is contained in finitely many compact…
