We show a global existence result of weak solutions for a class of generalized Surface Quasi-Geostrophic equation in the inviscid case. We also prove the global regularity of such solutions for the equation with slightly supercritical…
In this paper we investigate a kind of generalized Ricci flow which possesses a gradient form. We study the monotonicity of the given function under the generalized Ricci flow and prove that the related system of partial differential…
We introduce a new notion of viscosity solutions for a class of very singular nonlinear parabolic problems of non-divergence form in a periodic domain of arbitrary dimension, whose diffusion on flat parts with zero slope is so strong that…
Following work of Ecker, we consider a weighted Gibbons-Hawking-York functional on a Riemannian manifold-with-boundary. We compute its variational properties and its time derivative under Perelman's modified Ricci flow. The answer has a…
Let $M$ be a complete Riemannian manifold which either is compact or has a pole, and let $\varphi$ be a positive smooth function on $M$. In the warped product $M\times_\varphi\mathbb R$, we study the flow by the mean curvature of a locally…
An existence and uniqueness result, up to fattening, for crystalline mean curvature flows with forcing and arbitrary (convex) mobilities, is proven. This is achieved by introducing a new notion of solution to the corresponding level set…
In this paper, we introduce a class of new logarithmic curvature flow. The flows are designed to embrace the monotonicity of the related functional, and the convergence of this flow would tackle the solvability of the weighted…
In this article we use the mean curvature flow with surgery to derive regularity estimates for the level set flow going past Brakke regularity in certain special conditions allowing for 2-convex regions of high density. We also show a…
When mean curvature flow evolves non-uniquely, the flow is said to fatten. The work of Ilmanen shows that any weak MCF is supported inside the fattening, and work of Hershkovits--White identified canonical weak flows supported on the…
The goal of this paper is to study weak solutions of the Fokker-Planck equation. We first discuss existence and uniqueness of weak solutions in an irregular context, providing a unified treatment of the available literature along with some…
Let $\cM$ be a Brakke flow of $n$-dimensional surfaces in $R^N$. The singular set $\cS\subset\cM$ has a stratification $\cS^0\subset\cS^1\subset...\cS$, where $X\in \cS^j$ if no tangent flow at $X$ has more than $j$ symmetries. Here, we…
We prove that Allard's regularity theorem holds for rectifiable $n$-dimensional varifolds $V$ assuming a weaker condition on the first variation. This, in the special case when $V$ is a smooth manifold translates to the following: If…
We prove a monotonicity formula for mean curvature flow with surgery. This formula differs from Huisken's monotonicity formula by an extra term involving the mean curvature. As a consequence, we show that a surgically modified flow which is…
In this paper, we study Perelman' s $ \mathcal{W}$ entropy for mean curvature flow in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$. Analogously to Perelman's $\mathcal{W}$-entropy defined for Ricci flow, K. Ecker in \cite{Ecker07} defined a functional $\mathcal{W}$…
This paper concerns the inverse mean curvature flow of convex hypersurfaces which are Lipschitz in general. After defining a weak solution, we study the evolution of the singularity by looking at the blow-up tangent cone around each…
This is a contribution to the program of dynamical approach to mean curvature flow initiated by Colding and Minicozzi. In this paper, we prove two main theorems. The first one is local in nature and the second one is global. In this first…
In this note we establish several versions of a compactness theorem for submanifolds. In particular we require only bounds on the second fundamental form and do not assume volume or diameter bounds. As an application we prove a compactness…
We consider the fractional mean curvature flow of entire Lipschitz graphs. We provide regularity results, and we study the long time asymptotics of the flow. In particular we show that in a suitable rescaled framework, if the initial graph…
