As in the case of minimal surfaces in the Euclidean 3-space, the reflection principle for maximal surfaces in the Lorentz-Minkowski 3-space asserts that if a maximal surface has a spacelike line segment $L$, the surface is invariant under…

In this article, we study hypersurfaces $\Sigma\subset \mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ with constant weighted mean curvature. Recently, Wei-Peng proved a rigidity theorem for CWMC hypersurfaces that generalizes Le-Sesum classification theorem for…

We characterize the validity of the Maximum Principle in bounded domains for fully nonlinear degenerate elliptic operators in terms of the sign of a suitably defined generalized principal eigenvalue. Here, maximum principle refers to the…

In this paper we develop the compactness theorem for $\lambda$-surface in $\mathbb R^3$ with uniform $\lambda$, genus, and area growth. This theorem can be viewed as a generalization of Colding-Minicozzi's compactness theorem for…

In this note, we give a new and simple proof of a result in {\cite{DX1}} which states that any smooth complete self-shrinker in $\mathbb{R}^3$ with second fundamental form of constant length must be a generalized cylinder $\mathbb{S}^k…

The purpose of this paper is to study complete self-shrinkers of mean curvature flow in Euclidean spaces. In the paper, we give a complete classification for 2-dimensional complete Lagrangian self-shrinkers in Euclidean space $\mathbb R^4$…

The paper mainly concerns the structure at infinity for complete gradient shrinking Ricci solitons. It is shown that for such a soliton with bounded curvature, if the round cylinder $\mathbb{R}\times \mathbb{S}^{n-1}/\Gamma$ occurs as a…

In this article we prove two non-existence results for translating solitons of the mean curvature flow (translators for short) in $\mathbb{R}^{m+1}$. We also obtain an upper bound to the maximum height that a compact embedded translator in…

Self-shrinkers are the special solutions of mean curvature flow in $\mathbf{R}^{n+1}$ that evolve by shrinking homothetically; they serve as singularity models for the flow. The entropy of a hypersurface introduced by Colding-Minicozzi is a…

We consider geometric flow equations for contracting and expanding normal velocities, including powers of the Gauss curvature, of the mean curvature, and of the norm of the second fundamental form, and ask whether - after appropriate…

We study the phenomenon of Type-II curvature blow-up in mean curvature flows of rotationally symmetric noncompact embedded hypersurfaces. Using analytic techniques based on formal matched asymptotics and the construction of upper and lower…

Let (M,g) be a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary. This paper is concerned with the set of scalar-flat metrics which are in the conformal class of g and have the boundary as a constant mean curvature hypersurface. We prove that this…

Let $F_n :(\Sigma, h_n) \to \mathbb C^2$ be a sequence of conformally immersed Lagrangian self-shrinkers with a uniform area upper bound to the mean curvature flow, and suppose that the sequence of metrics $\{h_n\}$ converges smoothly to a…

We establish {\L}ojasiewicz inequalities for a class of cylindrical self-shrinkers for the mean curvature flow, which includes round cylinders and cylinders over Abresch-Langer curves, in any codimension. We deduce the uniqueness of blowups…

We prove the two theorems of the title, settling two long standing questions in the local theory of singular minimal hypersurfaces. The sharpness of either result is with respect to its hypothesis on the size of the allowable singular sets.…

We construct many closed, embedded mean curvature self-shrinking surfaces $\Sigma_g^2\subseteq\mathbb{R}^3$ of high genus $g=2k$, $k\in \mathbb{N}$. Each of these shrinking solitons has isometry group equal to the dihedral group on $2g$…
