In this article we partially classify the space of eternal mean convex flows in $\mathbb{R}^3$ of finite total curvature type, a condition implied by finite total curvature. In particular we show that topologically nonplanar ones must flow…

We show that a mean curvature flow starting from a compact, smoothly embedded hypersurface M remains unique past singularities, provided the singularities are of mean convex type, i.e., if around each singular point, the surface moves in…

We prove the convexity estimates of Huisken-Sinestrari for finite-time singularities of mean-convex, mean curvature flow with free boundary in a barrier $S$. Here $S$ can be any properly embedded, oriented surface in $R^{n+1}$ of bounded…

Let $C$ be an $m$-dimensional cone immersed in $\mathbb{R}^{n+m}$. In this paper, we show that if $F:M^m \rightarrow \mathbb{R}^{n+m}$ is a properly immersed mean curvature flow self-shrinker which is smoothly asymptotic to $C$, then it is…

Mean curvature flow of clusters of n-dimensional surfaces in R^{n+k} that meet in triples at equal angles along smooth edges and higher order junctions on lower dimensional faces is a natural extension of classical mean curvature flow. We…

The only non-compact linearly stable singularity models for mean curvature flow are cylindrical by Colding-Minicozzi. The uniqueness of blowups at singularities modeled on the cylinders has been established by the same authors. In this…

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 show that mean curvature flow translators may exhibit non-removable singularities at infinity, due to jump discontinuities in their asymptotic profiles, and that oscillation can persist so as to yield a continuum of subsequential limit…

We develop a structure theory for non-collapsed Ricci shrinkers without any curvature condition. As applications, we obtain some curvature estimates of the Ricci shrinkers depending only on the non-collapsing constant.
