Employing a local version of the Brunn-Minkowski inequality, we give a new and simple proof of a result due to Andrews, Choi and Daskalopoulos that the origin-centred balls are the only closed, self-similar solutions of the Gauss curvature…
We construct an ancient solution to planar curve shortening. The solution is at all times compact and embedded. For $t\ll0$ it is approximated by the rotating Yin-Yang soliton, truncated at a finite angle $\alpha(t) = -t$, and closed off by…
We show that the only even, smooth, convex solutions to a class of isotropic mixed Christoffel-Minkowski type problems are origin-centred spheres, which, in particular, answers a question of Firey 74 in the even isotropic case about…
An example of a compact, non-convex, embedded ancient solution for the curve shortening flow, which is asymptotic to Yin-Yang curve, is constructed.
The goal of this paper is to relax convexity assumption on some classical results in mean curvature flow. In the first half of the paper, we prove a generalized version of Hamilton's differential Harnack inequality which holds for mean…
We construct a translating solution to anisotropic curve shortening flow and show that for a given anisotropic factor $g:S^1\to\mathbb{R}_+$, and a given direction and speed, this translator is unique. We then construct an ancient compact…
In this note we construct an infinite family of ancient solutions to the Curve Shortening Flow which span the halfplane.
In this paper, the existence and uniqueness for a specific centro-affine invariant hypersurface flow in $R^{n+1}$ are studied, and the corresponding evolutionary processes in both centro-affine and Euclidean settings are explored. It turns…
Collapsed ancient solutions to the homogeneous Ricci flow on compact manifolds occur only on the total space of principal torus bundles. Under an algebraic assumption that guarantees flowing through diagonal metrics and a tameness…
We prove rigidity theorems for ancient solutions of geometric flows of immersed submanifolds. Specifically, we find pinching conditions on the second fundamental form that characterize the shrinking sphere among compact ancient solutions…
In this paper, the isoperimetric inequality in centro-affine plane geometry is obtained. We also investigate the long-term behavior of an invariant plane curve flow, whose evolution process can be expressed as a second-order nonlinear…
In this paper, we establish the existence of smooth, origin-symmetric, strictly convex solutions to the prescribed even $L_p$ curvature problem.
It is a fundamental open problem for the mean curvature flow, and in fact for many partial differential equations, whether or not all blowup limits are selfsimilar. In this short note, we prove that for the mean curvature flow of mean…
We construct a new compact convex embedded ancient solution of the $\kappa^\alpha$ flow in $\mathbb R^2$, $\alpha\in(\frac12,1)$ that lies between two parallel lines. Using this solution we classify all convex ancient solutions of the…
We address the classification of ancient solutions to the Gauss curvature flow under the assumption that the solutions are contained in a cylinder of bounded cross section. For each cylinder of convex bounded cross-section, we show that…
We prove some estimates for convex ancient solutions (the existence time for the solution starts from $-\infty$) to the power-of-mean curvature flow, when the power is strictly greater than 1/2. As an application, we prove that in two…
We construct new ancient compact solutions to the Yamabe flow. Our solutions are rotationally symmetric and converge, as $t \to -\infty$, to two self-similar complete non-compact solutions to the Yamabe flow moving in opposite directions.…
Given any non-central interior point $o$ of the unit disc $D$, the diameter $L$ through $o$ is the union of two linear arcs emanating from $o$ which meet $\partial D$ orthogonally, the shorter of them stable and the longer unstable (under…
We consider the evolution of hypersurfaces on the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^{n+1}$ by their mean curvature. We prove a differential Harnack inequality for any weakly convex solution to the mean curvature flow. As an application, by applying…
