We show that, under mild assumptions on the limiting curve, a sequence of simple chordal planar curves converges uniformly whenever certain Loewner driving functions converge. We extend this result to random curves. The random version…
We study a volume preserving curvature flow of convex hypersurfaces, driven by a power of the $k$-th elementary symmetric polynomial in the principal curvatures. Unlike most of the previous works on related problems, we do not require…
We prove several sharp one-sided pinching estimates for immersed and embedded hypersurfaces evolving by various fully nonlinear, one-homogeneous curvature flows by the method of Stampacchia iteration. These include sharp estimates for the…
Given any non-central interior point $o$ of the unit disc $D$, the diameter $L$ through $o$ is the union of two linear arcs emanating from $o$ which meet $\partial D$ orthogonally, the shorter of them stable and the longer unstable (under…
We study the arithmetic (geometric) progressions in the $x$-coordinates of quadratic points on smooth projective planar curves defined over a number field $k$. Unless the curve is hyperelliptic, we prove that these progressions must be…
We prove a sharp square function estimate for the cone in $\mathbb{R}^3$ and consequently the local smoothing conjecture for the wave equation in $2+1$ dimensions.
We consider the $H^{-m}$-gradient flow of length for closed plane curves. This flow is a generalization of curve diffusion flow. We investigate the large-time behavior assuming the global existence of the flow. Then we show that the…
We construct an ancient solution to planar curve shortening. The solution is at all times compact and embedded. For $t\ll0$ it is approximated by the rotating Yin-Yang soliton, truncated at a finite angle $\alpha(t) = -t$, and closed off by…
We show that small energy curves under a particular sixth order curvature flow with generalised Neumann boundary conditions between parallel lines converge exponentially in the smooth topology in infinite time to straight lines.
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…
In [12], the existence of ideal circle patterns in Euclidean or hyperbolic background geometry under the combinatorial conditions was proved using flow approaches. It remains as an open problem for the spherical case. In this paper, we…

We consider the evolution by mean curvature flow of a closed submanifold of the complex projective space. We show that, if the submanifold has small codimension and satisfies a suitable pinching condition on the second fundamental form,…
We present a numerical method for computing the evolution of a planar, star-shaped curve under a broad class of curvature-driven geometric flows, which we refer to as the Andrews-Bloore flows. This family of flows has two parameters that…
By studying $\mathbb{A}^1$-curves on varieties, we propose a geometric approach to strong approximation problem over function fields of complex curves. We prove that strong approximation holds for smooth, low degree affine complete…
In this paper, we prove, using only elementary geometric arguments and only assuming that the curves are continuous, that the geodesics on a sphere are the minor arcs of the great circles. Our result are valid for any sphere in any inner…
In this short article, we prove the existence of ancient solutions of the mean curvature flow that for t -> 0 collapse to a round point, but for t -> -infinity become more and more oval: near the center they have asymptotic shrinkers…
