In this paper, we prove the mean-convex neighborhood conjecture for neck singularities of the mean curvature flow in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ for all $n\geq 3$: we show that if a mean curvature flow $\{M_t\}$ in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ has an…
We provide a connection between weak solution concepts of mean curvature flow. On the one side we have the viscosity solution which is based on the comparison principle. On the other, variational solutions, which are combined Brakke flows…
