In this paper we study a neighborhood of generic singularities formed by mean curvature flow (MCF). We limit our consideration to the singularities modelled on $\mathbb{S}^3\times\mathbb{R}$ because, compared to the cases…
The aim of this paper is to introduce a notion of mean curvature flow soliton general enough to encompass target spaces of constant sectional curvature, Riemannian products or, in increasing generality, warped product spaces.
We prove the longtime existence for the mean curvature flow problem with a perpendicular Neumann boundary condition in a Generalized Robertson Walker (GRW) spacetime that obeys the null convergence condition. In addition, we prove that the…
We show that the discrete approximate volume preserving mean curvature flow in the flat torus $\mathbb{T}^N$ starting near a strictly stable critical set $E$ of the perimeter converges in the long time to a translate of $E$ exponentially…
We prove that, given $|H|<1$, a generic simple closed curve embedded in the asymptotic boundary of $\mathbb{H}^3$ (with respect to the supremum metric) bounds more than one complete surface embedded in $\mathbb{H}^3$ which has constant mean…
It was shown by Angenent, Altschuler and Giga, and by Angenent and Velazquez that there exist closed mean curvature flow solutions that extinct to a point in finite time, without ever becoming convex prior to their extinction. These…
In this paper we consider the evolution of sets by a fractional mean curvature flow. Our main result states that for any dimension $n > 2$, there exists an embedded surface in $\mathbb R^n$ evolving by fractional mean curvature flow, which…
We establish short-time existence of the smooth solution to the fractional mean curvature flow when the initial set is bounded and C^{1,1}-regular. We provide the same result also for the volume preserving fractional mean curvature flow.
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…
A well-known question of Perelman concerns the classification of noncompact ancient solutions to the Ricci flow in dimension $3$ which have positive sectional curvature and are $\kappa$-noncollapsed. In this paper, we solve the analogous…
We develop a global theory for complete hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ whose mean curvature is given as a prescribed function of its Gauss map. This theory extends the usual one of constant mean curvature hypersurfaces in…
In this paper, we introduce a volume- or area-preserving curvature flow for hypersurfaces with capillary boundary in the half-space, with speed given by a positive power of the mean curvature with a non-local averaging term. We demonstrate…
In this paper, we consider the mean curvature flow of convex hypersurfaces in Euclidean spaces with a general forcing term. We show that the flow may shrink to a point in finite time if the forcing term is small, or exist for all times and…
We consider a convex Euclidean hypersurface that evolves by a volume or area preserving flow with speed given by a general nonhomogeneous function of the mean curvature. For a broad class of possible speed functions, we show that any closed…
In this note we study constant mean curvature surfaces in asymptotically flat 3-manifolds. We prove that, in an asymptotically flat 3-manifold with positive mass, stable spheres of given constant mean curvature outside a fixed compact…
We review some recent results on the mean curvature flows of Lagrangian submanifolds from the perspective of geometric partial differential equations. These include global existence and convergence results, characterizations of first-time…
In this paper, we study the $k$-cylindrical singular set of mean curvature flow in $\mathbb R^{n+1}$ for each $1\leq k\leq n-1$. We prove that they are locally contained in a $k$-dimensional $C^{2,\alpha}$-submanifold after removing some…
Shrinkers are special solutions of mean curvature flow (MCF) that evolve by rescaling and model the singularities. While there are infinitely many in each dimension, [CM1] showed that the only generic are round cylinders $\SS^k\times…
In this paper we establish a new stability result for the smooth volume preserving mean curvature flow in flat torus $\mathbb T^n$ in low dimensions $n=3,4$. The result says roughly that if the initial set is near to a strictly stable set…
We study the mean curvature flow of smooth $n$-dimensional compact submanifolds with quadratic pinching in a Riemannian manifold $\mathcal{N}^{n+m}$. Our main focus is on the case of high codimension, $m\geq 2$. We establish a codimension…
