We consider a flow by powers of Gauss curvature under the obstruction that the flow cannot penetrate a prescribed region, so called an obstacle. For all dimensions and positive powers, we prove the optimal curvature bounds of solutions and…

We consider the evolution of hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ with normal velocity given by a positive power of the mean curvature. The hypersurfaces under consideration are assumed to be strictly mean convex (positive mean curvature),…

We investigate a mean curvature flow obtained via elliptic regularization, and prove that it is not only a Brakke flow, but additionally a generalized BV flow proposed by Stuvard and Tonegawa. In particular, we show that the change in…

We first give a general introduction to the mean curvature flow, and then discuss fundamental results established over the last 10 years that yield a precise theory for the flow through singularities in $\mathbb{R}^3$. With the aim of…

We give a new proof for the existence of mean curvature flow with surgery of 2-convex hypersurfaces in $R^N$, as announced in arXiv:1304.0926. Our proof works for all $N \geq 3$, including mean convex surfaces in $R^3$. We also derive a…

A variant of the Gauss curvature flow for closed and convex hypersurfaces is considered. We reveal that if the initial hypersurface is pinched enough, then this property is preserved. Furthermore, based on some structure assumptions on the…

We derive pointwise curvature estimates for graphical mean curvature flows in higher codimensions. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first such estimates without assuming smallness of first derivatives of the defining map. An…

Long time existence and convergence to a circle is proved for radial graph solutions to a mean curvature type curve flow in warped product surfaces (under a weak assumption on the warp potential of the surface). This curvature flow…

This paper establishes the global-in-time existence of a multi-phase mean curvature flow, evolving from an arbitrary closed rectifiable initial datum, which is a Brakke flow and a BV solution at the same time. In particular, we prove the…
