We present an elementary approach to prove restriction theorems for particular surfaces for which the Tomas-Stein theorem does not apply, which in turn provide short proofs for well-known Strichartz estimates for associated PDEs. The method…

In this paper, we study a family of curves on $S^2$ that defines a two-dimensional smooth projective plane. We use curve shortening flow to prove that any two-dimensional smooth projective plane can be smoothly deformed through a family of…

In 1995, Hamilton introduced a Harnack inequality for convex solutions of the mean curvature flow. In this paper we prove an alternative Harnack inequality for curve shortening flow, i.e. one-dimensional mean curvature flow, that does not…

We consider a gradient flow associated to the mean field equation on $(M,g)$ a compact riemanniann surface without boundary. We prove that this flow exists for all time. Moreover, letting $G$ be a group of isometry acting on $(M,g)$, we…

A variant of the Gauss curvature flow for closed and convex hypersurfaces is considered. We reveal that if the initial hypersurface is pinched enough, then this property is preserved. Furthermore, based on some structure assumptions on the…

We consider a $C^{1}$ smooth surface with prescribed $p$(or $H$)-mean curvature in the 3-dimensional Heisenberg group. Assuming only the prescribed $p$-mean curvature $H\in C^{0},$ we show that any characteristic curve is $C^{2}$ smooth and…
