In this paper we study constant mean curvature surfaces $\Sigma$ in a product space, $\mathbb{M}^2\times \mathbb{R}$, where $\mathbb{M}^2$ is a complete Riemannian manifold. We assume the angle function $\nu = \meta{N}{\partial_t}$ does not…

We show that the intrinsic diameter of mean curvature flow in $\mathbb{R}^3$ is uniformly bounded as one approaches the first singular time $T$. This confirms the bounded diameter conjecture of Haslhofer. In addition, we establish several…

We study the evolution of a weakly convex surface $\Sigma_0$ in $\R^3$ with flat sides by the Harmonic Mean Curvature flow. We establish the short time existence as well as the optimal regularity of the surface and we show that the…

A mean curvature flow starting from a closed embedded hypersurface in $R^{n+1}$ must develop singularities. We show that if the flow has only generic singularities, then the space-time singular set is contained in finitely many compact…

We study the convergence of an axially symmetric hypersurface evolving by volume preserving mean curvature flow. Assuming the surface is not pinching off along the axis at any time during the flow, and without any additional conditions, as…

Let $M$ be an orientable surface immersed in the De Sitter space $S_1^3$ in $R^4_1$ or anti de Sitter space $H_1^3$ in $R^4_2$. In the case that $M$ is of $L_1$-2-type we prove that the following conditions are equivalent to each other: $M$…

In this paper we study the curvature flow of a curve in a plane endowed with a minkowskian norm whose unit ball is smooth. We show that many of the properties known in the euclidean case can be extended (with due adaptations) to this new…

In this article, we prove the mean convex neighborhood conjecture for the mean curvature flow of surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$. Namely, if the flow has a spherical or cylindrical singularity at a space-time point $X=(x,t)$, then there exists a…

We give a new proof for the existence of mean curvature flow with surgery of 2-convex hypersurfaces in $R^N$, as announced in arXiv:1304.0926. Our proof works for all $N \geq 3$, including mean convex surfaces in $R^3$. We also derive a…
