We construct new examples of immortal mean curvature flow of smooth embedded connected hypersurfaces in closed manifolds, which converge to minimal hypersurfaces with multiplicity $2$ as time approaches infinity.
We introduce the mean curvature flow of curves in the Minkowski plane $\mathbf R^{1,1}$ and give a classification of all the self-similar solutions. In addition, we describe five other exact solutions to the flow.
In this paper, we study the skew mean curvature flow. The results are threefold. First, we prove the global regularity of solutions with initial data which are small perturbations of planes in Sobolev spaces. Second, we prove the modified…

Computing uniformization maps for surfaces has been a challenging problem and has many practical applications. In this paper, we provide a theoretically rigorous algorithm to compute such maps via combinatorial Calabi flow for vertex…
In this paper we introduce the target flow -- a specific curve shortening flow with an ambient forcing term -- that, given an embedded (not necessarily convex) target curve, will attempt to evolve a given source curve to that target. The…
We investigate the mean curvature flows in a class of warped product manifolds with closed hypersurfaces fibering over $\mathbb{R}$. In particular, we prove that under natural conditions on the warping function and Ricci curvature bound for…
We study the flow $M_t$ of a smooth, strictly convex hypersurface by its mean curvature in $\mathrm{R}^{n+1}$. The surface remains smooth and convex, shrinking monotonically until it disappears at a critical time $T$ and point $x^*$ (which…
Center manifold analysis can be used in order to investigate the stability of the stationary solutions of various PDEs. This can be done by considering the PDE as an ODE between certain Banach spaces and linearising about the stationary…
