In this paper we will discuss how one may be able to use mean curvature flow to tackle some of the central problems in topology in 4-dimensions. We will be concerned with smooth closed 4-manifolds that can be smoothly embedded as a…

In this paper, we study the evolution of L2 p-forms under Ricci flow with bounded curvature on a complete non-compact or a compact Riemannian manifold. We show that under curvature pinching conditions on such a manifold, the L2 norm of a…

We prove a sharp quartic curvature pinching for the mean curvature flow in $\mathbb{S}^{n+m}$, $m\ge2$, which generalises Pu's work on the convergence of submanifolds in $\mathbb{S}^{n+m}$ to a round point. Using a blow up argument, we…

We study the motion of a droplet evolving by mean curvature with volume constraint and contact angle condition on a half space. We prove the existence of a global-in-time weak solution, called the flat flow. A difficulty arises when we…

We study the mean curvature flow of hypersurfaces in $\R^{n+1}$, with initial surfaces sufficiently close to the standard $n$-dimensional sphere. The closeness is in the Sobolev norm with the index greater than $\frac{n}{2}+1$ and therefore…

In this paper, we firstly prove that every hyper-Lagrangian submanifold $L^{2n} (n > 1)$ in a hyperk\"ahler $4n$-manifold is a complex Lagrangian submanifold. Secondly, we demonstrate an optimal rigidity theorem with the condition on the…

We define Type I singularities for the mean curvature flow associated to a density $\psi$ ($\psi$MCF) and describe the blow-up at singular time of these singularities. Special attention is paid to the case where the singularity come from…

We introduce a regularization method for mean curvature flow of a submanifold of arbitrary codimension in the Euclidean space, through higher order equations. We prove that the regularized problems converge to the mean curvature flow for…

We establish a regularity result for the metric on any 4-dimensional extremal K\"ahler manifold, and a weak compactness theorem on the space of such metrics. Specifically, the sectional curvature at a point is bounded when the quantity…

The aim of this article is to establish a concise proof for a stability result of self-similar solutions of the binormal flow, in some more restrictive cases than in [5]. This equation, also known as the Local Induction Approximation, is a…

We make some improvements to our previous results. First, we prove a version of our volume growth theorem which does not require any assumption on the first Betti number. Second, we show that our local regularity theorem only requires a…
