In this note we show that the recent dynamical stability result for small $C^1$-perturbations of strongly stable minimal submanifolds of C.-J. Tsai and M.-T. Wang directly extends to the enhanced Brakke flows of Ilmanen. We illustrate…
We consider the mean curvature evolution of rotationally symmetric surfaces. Using numerical methods, we detect critical behavior at the threshold of singularity formation resembling the one of gravitational collapse. In particular, 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…
We prove that the limit hypersurfaces of converging curvature flows are stable, if the initial velocity has a weak sign, and give a survey of the existence and regularity results.
Mean curvature flow is the most natural evolution equation in extrinsic geometry, and shares many features with Hamilton's Ricci flow from intrinsic geometry. In this lecture series, I will provide an introduction to the mean curvature flow…
We extend some results known for the K\"ahler-Ricci flow to the Chern-Ricci flow regarding the independence of singularity types for long-time solutions. Specifically, we show that if a solution to the Chern-Ricci flow exists with uniformly…
We study the rescaled mean curvature flow (MCF) of hypersurfaces that are global graphs over a fixed cylinder of arbitrary dimensions. We construct an explicit stable manifold for the rescaled MCF of finite codimensions in a suitable…
We study the stability of the exterior of Type I and Type II singularity formation for the wave maps equation in $\mathbb{R}^{d+1}$ with $d\geq2$ and the power nonlinear wave equation in $\mathbb{R}^{d+1}$ with $d\geq3$:Given characteristic…
We survey some recent development in the stability theory of klt singularities. The main focus is on the solution of the stable degeneration conjecture.
A mean curvature flow starting from a closed embedded hypersurface in $R^{n+1}$ must develop singularities. We show that if the flow has only generic singularities, then the space-time singular set is contained in finitely many compact…
An existence and uniqueness result, up to fattening, for a class of crystalline mean curvature flows with natural mobility is proved. The results are valid in any dimension and for arbitrary, possibly unbounded, initial closed sets. The…
In this paper, we show that if the mean curvature of a closed smooth embedded mean curvature flow in R^3 is of type-I, then the rescaled flow at the first finite singular time converges smoothly to a self-shrinker flow with multiplicity…
We introduce a general characterization of sudden cosmological singularities and investigate the classical stability of homogeneous and isotropic cosmological solutions of all curvatures containing these singularities to small scalar,…
We construct examples of spherical space forms $(S^3/\Gamma,g)$ with positive scalar curvature and containing no stable embedded minimal surfaces, such that the following happens along the Ricci flow starting at $(S^3/\Gamma,g)$: a stable…
We consider one of the generic regimes of formation of singularities. We obtain a detailed description of a possibly small, but fixed, neighborhood of the blowup point, up to (and including) the blowup time, and find that it is mean convex.…
The singularities of network flow are modeled by self-similarly shrinking solutions called regular shrinkers. In this paper, we study the stability of regular shrinkers. We show that all regular shrinkers with two or more enclosed regions…
Given a singular Riemannian foliation on a compact Riemannian manifold, we study the mean curvature flow equation with a regular leaf as initial datum. We prove that if the leaves are compact and the mean curvature vector field is basic,…
In this paper we study motion of surfaces of revolution under the mean curvature flow. For an open set of initial conditions close to cylindrical surfaces we show that the solution forms a "neck" which pinches in a finite time at a single…
The line bundle mean curvature flow is a complex analogue of the mean curvature flow for Lagrangian graphs, with fixed points solving the deformed Hermitian-Yang-Mills equation. In this paper we construct two distinct examples of…
This paper studies singularities of mean curvature flows with integral mean curvature bounds $H \in L^\infty L^p_{loc}$ for some $p \in ( n, \infty]$. For such flows, any tangent flow is given by the flow of a stationary cone $\mathbf{C}$.…
