In a recent paper, Brendle proved that the inscribed radius of closed embedded mean convex hypersurfaces moving by mean curvature flow is at least 1/((1+\delta)H) at all points with H > C(\delta,M_0). In this note, we give a shorter proof…

We study fully nonlinear geometric flows that deform strictly $k$-convex hypersurfaces in Euclidean space with pointwise normal speed given by a concave function of the principal curvatures. Specifically, the speeds we consider are obtained…

We prove a local version of the noncollapsing estimate for mean curvature flow. By combining our result with earlier work of X.-J. Wang, it follows that certain ancient convex solutions that sweep out the entire space are noncollapsed.

We prove that smooth convex $\alpha$-noncollapsed ancient mean curvature flow satisfies a quantitative curvature estimate $H(y,t)\leq CH(x,t)(H(x,t)|x-y|+1)^2$ for any pair of $x,y$. In other words, the rescaled curvature grows at most…

This paper studies the dynamics of mean curvature flow as it approaches a cylindrical singularity. We proved that the rescaled mean curvature flow converging to a smooth generalized cylinder can be written as a graph over the cylinder in a…

We consider the profile function of ancient ovals and of noncollapsed translators. Recall that pioneering work of Angenent-Daskalopoulos-Sesum (JDG '19, Annals '20) gives a sharp $C^0$-estimate and a quadratic concavity estimate for the…
