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…

In this paper, we study the flow of closed, starshaped hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ with speed $r^\alpha\sigma_2^{1/2},$ where $\sigma_2^{1/2}$ is the normalized square root of the scalar curvature, $\alpha\geq 2,$ and $r$ is the…
