We provide explicit examples which show that mean convexity (i.e. positivity of the mean curvature) and positivity of the scalar curvature are non-preserved curvature conditions for hypersurfaces of the Euclidean space evolving under either…

We consider the evolution of hypersurfaces on the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^{n+1}$ by smooth functions of the Weingarten map. We introduce the notion of `quasi-ancient' solutions for flows that do not admit non-trivial, convex, ancient…

We construct a compact, convex ancient solution of mean curvature flow in $\mathbb R^{n+1}$ with $O(1)\times O(n)$ symmetry that lies in a slab of width $\pi$. We provide detailed asymptotics for this solution and show that, up to rigid…

Motivated by Pan-Yang [PY] and Ma-Cheng [MC], we study a general linear nonlocal curvature flow for convex closed plane curves and discuss the short time existence and asymptotic convergence behavior of the flow. Due to the linear structure…

In this paper, we consider a kind of area preserving non-local flow for convex curves in the plane. We show that the flow exists globally, the length of evolving curve is non-increasing, and the curve converges to a circle in C^{\infty}…
