We develop a conservation law for constant mean curvature (CMC) surfaces introduced by Korevaar, Kusner and Solomon, and provide a converse, so as to characterize CMC surfaces by a conservation law. We work with `twizzler' construction,…

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 introduce a mean curvature flow with global term of convex hypersurfaces in the sphere, for which the global term can be chosen to keep any quermassintegral fixed. Then, starting from a strictly convex initial hypersurface, we prove that…

In this paper, we consider the mean curvature flow of convex hypersurfaces in Euclidean spaces with a general forcing term. We show that the flow may shrink to a point in finite time if the forcing term is small, or exist for all times and…
