We show that every convex ancient solution of mean curvature flow with Type I curvature growth is either spherical, cylindrical, or planar. We then prove the corresponding statement for flows by a natural class of curvature functions which…

J.J.L. Vel$\acute{a}$zquez in 1994 used the degree theory to show that there is a perturbation of Simons' cone, starting from which the mean curvature flow develops a type $\mathrm{II}$ singularity at the origin. He also showed that under a…

We consider the evolution of a $n$-dimensional convex hypersurface in the euclidean space under mean curvature flow with densities $e^{\varepsilon \frac12 n\mu^2 |x|^2}$, $\varepsilon =\pm 1$, and completely determine it depending on the…

We show that the solutions to the curvature flow (CF) for curves on the 2-dimensional light cone are in correspondence with the solutions to the inverse curvature flow (ICF). We prove that the ellipses and the hyperboles are the only curves…

This paper proves that, at the first singular time for a smoothly immersed surface moving by mean curvature flow in a n-manifold, each tangent flow is given by a smooth, branched shrinker, possibly with multiplicity. If n=3 and if 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…

It is a fundamental open problem for the mean curvature flow, and in fact for many partial differential equations, whether or not all blowup limits are selfsimilar. In this short note, we prove that for the mean curvature flow of mean…

We consider the so-called inverse $F$-curvature flow (IFCF) $\dot x = -F^{-1}\nu$ in ARW spaces, i.e. in Lorentzian manifolds with a special future singularity. Here, $F$ denotes a curvature function of class $(K^*)$, which is homogenous of…

It is shown that a hypersurface of a space form is the initial data for a solution to the mean curvature flow by parallel hypersurfaces if, and only if, it is isoparametric. By solving an ordinary differential equation, explicit solutions…

In 1994, Vel\'{a}zquez constructed a countable family of complete hypersurfaces flowing in $\mathbb{R}^{2N}$ $(N\geq 4)$ by mean curvature, each of which develops a type II singularity at the origin in finite time. Later Guo and Sesum…
