This is the second paper in the series to study the generic dynamics of mean curvature flows. We study the initial perturbation of mean curvature flows, whose first singularity is modeled by an asymptotically conical shrinker. The…

We show that any complete, immersed self-expander to the inverse mean curvature flow, which has one end asymptotic to a cylinder, or has two ends asymptotic to two coaxial cylinders, must be rotationally symmetric.

In this article, we examine complete, mean-convex self-expanders for the mean curvature flow whose ends have decaying principal curvatures. We prove a Liouville-type theorem associated to this class of self-expanders. As an application, we…

This is a contribution to the program of dynamical approach to mean curvature flow initiated by Colding and Minicozzi. In this paper, we prove two main theorems. The first one is local in nature and the second one is global. In this first…

In Theorem 3.1 of [12], we proved a rigidity result for self-shrinkers under the integral condition on the norm of the second fundamental form. In this paper, we relax the such bound to any finite constant (see Theorem 4.4 for details).

We announce the classification of complete, almost embedded surfaces of constant mean curvature, with three ends and genus zero: they are classified by triples of points on the sphere whose distances are the asymptotic necksizes of the…

Given a (genus 2) cube-with-holes M, i.e. the complement in S^3 of a handlebody H, we relate intrinsic properties of M (like its cut number) with extrinsic features depending on the way the handlebody H is knotted in S^3. Starting from a…

We develop a min-max theory for asymptotically conical self-expanders of mean curvature flow. In particular, we show that given two distinct strictly stable self-expanders that are asymptotic to the same cone and bound a domain, there…

By making use of the nice behavior of Hawking masses of slices of a weak solution of inverse mean curvature flow in three dimensional asymptotically hyperbolic manifolds, we are able to show that each slice of the flow is star-shaped after…

In this paper, we first use the method of Colding and Minicozzi [5] to show that K. Smoczyk's classification theorem [16] for complete self-shrinkers in higher codimension also holds under a weaker condition. Then as an application, we give…

For a general class of cones in $\mathbb{R}^3$, we construct self-expanders of positive genus asymptotic to these cones. As a result, we use these self-expanders to construct a mean curvature flow with genus strictly decreasing but not to…
