We develop a theory of surfaces with boundary moving by mean curvature flow. In particular, we prove a general existence theorem by elliptic regularization, and we prove boundary regularity at all positive times under very mild hypotheses.
We classify translation surfaces in isotropic geometry with arbitrary constant isotropic Gaussian and mean curvature under the condition that at least one of translating curves lies in a plane.
Spacelike intrinsic rotational surfaces with constant mean curvature in the Lorentz-Minkowski space $\E_1^3$ have been recently investigated by Brander et al., extending the known Smyth's surfaces in Euclidean space. Assuming that the…
In this paper, we investigate the mean curvature flow having equifocal submanifolds as initial data. The investigation are performed by investigating the mean curvature flow having the lifted submanifolds to a Hilbert space through 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 study the averaged mean curvature flow, also called the volume preserving mean curvature flow, in the particular setting of axisymmetric surfaces embedded in R^3 satisfying periodic boundary conditions. We establish analytic…
For every closed set $K \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ and every $m \geq 2$, we construct a mean-convex ancient solution to mean curvature flow of hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{R}^{m+n}$, with respect to a smooth Riemannian metric arbitrarily…
In hyperbolic 3-space $\mathbb{H}^3$ surfaces of constant mean curvature $H$ come in three types, corresponding to the cases $0 \leq H < 1$, $H = 1$, $H > 1$. Via the Lawson correspondence the latter two cases correspond to constant mean…
As first noted in Korevaar, Kusner and Solomon ("KKS"), constant mean curvature implies a homological conservation law for hypersurfaces in ambient spaces with Killing fields.In Theorem 3.5 here, we generalize that law by relaxing the…
We construct new examples of immortal mean curvature flow of smooth embedded connected hypersurfaces in closed manifolds, which converge to minimal hypersurfaces with multiplicity $2$ as time approaches infinity.
In this paper, we investigate the mean curvature flows for an equifocal submanifold in a symmetric space of compact type and its focal submanifolds as initial data. It is known that equifocal submanifolds of codimension greater than one in…
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.
The skew mean curvature flow(SMCF), which origins from the study of fluid dynamics, describes the evolution of a codimension two submanifold along its binormal direction. We study the basic properties of the SMCF and prove the existence of…
We give an overview of the existence and regularity results for curvature flows and how these flows can be used to solve some problems in geometry and physics.
We consider inverse curvature flows in the $(n+1)$-dimensional Euclidean space, $n\geq 2,$ expanding by arbitrary negative powers of a 1-homogeneous, monotone curvature function $F$ with some concavity properties. We obtain asymptotical…
We prove that any piece of a rotational hypersurface with prescribed mean curvature function in a Euclidean space can be uniquely extended infinitely, which generalizes the results by Euler and Delaunay for surfaces of revolution with…
In an ambient space with rotational symmetry around an axis (which include the Hyperbolic and Euclidean spaces), we study the evolution under the volume-preserving mean curvature flow of a revolution hypersurface M generated by a graph over…
We construct families of smooth functions $H\colon\mathbb{R}^{n+1}\to\mathbb{R}$ such that the Euclidean $(n+1)$-space is completely filled by not necessarily round hyperspheres of mean curvature $H$ at every point.
In this paper, we describe a family of embedded hypersurfaces with constant mean curvature (CMC) in the $(n+1)$-dimensional unit sphere. In the process, we provide evidence for new CMC embedded examples. In particular, for some examples…
In this paper, we consider a family of closed hypersurfaces which shrink self-similarly with speed of quotient curvatures. We show that the only such hypersurfaces are shrinking spheres.
