A mean curvature flow starting from a closed embedded hypersurface in $R^{n+1}$ must develop singularities. We show that if the flow has only generic singularities, then the space-time singular set is contained in finitely many compact…

Recently, J. Streets and G. Tian introduced a natural way to evolve an almost-K\"ahler manifold called the symplectic curvature flow, in which the metric, the symplectic structure and the almost-complex structure are all evolving. We study…

In this paper we study the singularities of the mean curvature flow from a symplectic surface or from a Lagrangian surface in a K\"ahler-Einstein surface. We prove that the blow-up flow $\Sigma_s^\infty$ at a singular point $(X_0, T_0)$ of…

We show short time existence and uniqueness of $\C^{1,1}$ solutions to the mean curvature flow with obstacles, when the obstacles are of class $\C^{1,1}$. If the initial interface is a periodic graph we show long time existence of the…

This paper is concerned with properties of maximal solutions of the Ricci and cross curvature flows on locally homogeneous three-manifolds of type SL(2,R). We prove that, generically, a maximal solution originates at a sub-Riemannian…

We prove that the mean curvature flow of a generic closed embedded hypersurface in $\mathbb{R}^4$ or $\mathbb{R}^5$ with entropy $\leq 2$, or with entropy $\leq \lambda(\mathbb{S}^1)$ if in $\mathbb{R}^6$, encounters only generic…
