We prove that, in the flat torus and in any dimension, the volume-preserving mean curvature flow and the surface diffusion flow, starting $C^{1,1}-$close to a strictly stable critical set of the perimeter $E$, exist for all times and…
In this paper we study the Type IIb mean curvature flow. We first prove that if the convex entire graph $(y,u(|y|))$ over $\mathbb{R}^n$, $n\geq 2$, satisfying there exist positive constants $\epsilon$, $c$ and $N$ such that $ u'(r)\geq c…
We study noncompact surfaces evolving by mean curvature flow. Without any symmetry assumptions, we prove that any solution that is $C^3$-close at some time to a standard neck will develop a neckpinch singularity in finite time, will become…
We construct smooth mean curvature flows with surgery that approximate weak mean curvature flows with only spherical and neck-pinch singularities. This is achieved by combining the recent work of Choi-Haslhofer-Hershkovits, and…

We consider a convex Euclidean hypersurface that evolves by a volume or area preserving flow with speed given by a general nonhomogeneous function of the mean curvature. For a broad class of possible speed functions, we show that any closed…
Let \Sigma be a compact oriented surface immersed in a four dimensional K\"ahler-Einstein manifold M. We consider the evolution of \Sigma in the direction of its mean curvature vector. It is proved that being symplectic is preserved along…
For an $H>0$ rotationally symmetric embedded torus $N_{0} \subset \mathbb{R}^{3}$, evolved by Inverse Mean Curvature Flow, we show that the total curvature $|A|$ remains bounded up to the singular time $T_{\max}$. We then show convergence…
We study the parabolic flow for generalized complex Monge-Amp\`ere type equations on closed Hermitian manifolds. We derive {\em a priori} $C^\infty$ estimates for normalized solutions, and then prove the $C^\infty$ convergence.
A fundamental tool in the analysis of Ricci flow is a compactness result of Hamilton in the spirit of the work of Cheeger, Gromov and others. Roughly speaking it allows one to take a sequence of Ricci flows with uniformly bounded curvature…
Entropy is a natural geometric quantity measuring the complexity of a surface embedded in $\mathbb{R}^3$. For dynamical reasons relating to mean curvature flow, Colding-Ilmanen-Minicozzi-White conjectured that the entropy of any closed…
