We show short-time existence for curves driven by curve diffusion flow with a prescribed contact angle $\alpha \in (0, \pi)$: The evolving curve has free boundary points, which are supported on a line and it satisfies a no-flux condition.…

For hypersurfaces moving by standard mean curvature flow with boundary, we show that if a tangent flow at a boundary singularity is given by a smoothly embedded shrinker, then the shrinker must be non-orientable. We also show that there is…
It was shown by Ramanathan \cite{R} that any compact oriented non-simply-connected minimal surface in the three-dimensional round sphere admits at most a finite set of pairwise noncongruent minimal isometric immersions. Here we show that…
