We prove the existence of the flow by curvature of regular planar networks starting from an initial network which is non-regular. The proof relies on a monotonicity formula for expanding solutions and a local regularity result for the…

We prove that if a rescaled mean curvature flow is a global graph over the round cylinder with small gradient and converges super-exponentially fast, then it must coincide with the cylinder itself. We also show that the result is sharp with…

We study global aspects of the mean curvature flow of non-separating hypersurfaces $S$ in closed manifolds. For instance, if $S$ has non-vanishing mean curvature, we show its level set flow converges smoothly towards an embedded minimal…
