In this note we first show a compactness theorem for rotationally symmetric self shrinkers of entropy less than 2, concluding that there are entropy minimizing self shrinkers diffeomorphic to $S^1 \times S^{n-1}$ for each $n \geq 2$ in the…

In this work we derive explicit entropy bounds for two classes of closed self-shrinkers: the class of embedded closed self-shrinkers recently constructed in arXiv:2207.04851 using isoparametric foliations of spheres, and the class of…

For each integer $g\geq 1$ we use variational methods to construct in the unit $3$-ball $B$ a free boundary minimal surface $\Sigma_g$ of symmetry group $\mathbb{D}_{g+1}$. For $g$ large, $\Sigma_g$ has three boundary components and genus…

We use a weighted variant of the frequency functions introduced by Almgren to prove sharp asymptotic estimates for almost eigenfunctions of the drift Laplacian associated to the Gaussian weight on an asymptotically conical end. As a…

In this note, we give a new and simple proof of a result in {\cite{DX1}} which states that any smooth complete self-shrinker in $\mathbb{R}^3$ with second fundamental form of constant length must be a generalized cylinder $\mathbb{S}^k…

Self-shrinkers are important geometric objects in the study of mean curvature flows, while the Bernstein Theorem is one of the most profound results in minimal surface theory. We prove a Bernstein type result for graphical self-shrinker…

We construct new expanders for mean curvature flow that are smoothly asymptotic to cones arising from certain shrinkers. For each such cone, we prove the existence of expanders of arbitrarily large genus. Thus, for a fixed incoming…

In this article we extend an unknottedness theorem for compact self shrinkers to the mean curvature flow to shrinkers with one asymptotically conical end, which conjecturally comprises the entire set of self shrinkers with finite topology…

In this note we show that compact self shrinkers in $\mathbb{R}^3$ are "topologically standard" in that any genus $g$ compact self shrinker is ambiently isotopic to the standard genus $g$ embedded surface in $\mathbb{R}^3$. As a consequence…

For hypersurfaces of dimension greater than one, Huisken showed that compact self-shrinkers of the mean curvature flow with positive scalar mean curvature are spheres. We will prove the following extension: A compact self-similar solution…

We classify properly immersed self-shrinkers of the mean curvature flow in arbitrary codimension under a quadratic pinching condition of Andrews-Baker type on the second fundamental form that is preserved along the flow. Under this…

In this article, we first classify Legendrian self-shrinkers in $\mathbb{R}% ^{3}$ and $\mathbb{R}^{5}$. We then proved a Legendrian rigidity theorem, which can be regarded as an analogue of the result of Li-Wang \cite{lw}. More precisely,…

It is our purpose to study complete self-shrinkers in Euclidean space. First of all, we show some examples of complete self-shrinkers without polynomial volume growth. By making use of the generalized maximum principle for…

Let \Sigma be a compact oriented surface immersed in a four dimensional K\"ahler-Einstein manifold M. We consider the evolution of \Sigma in the direction of its mean curvature vector. It is proved that being symplectic is preserved along…

The entropy functional introduced by Colding and Minicozzi plays a fundamental role in the analysis of mean curvature flow. However, unlike the hypersurface case, relatively little about the entropy is known in the higher-codimension case.…

Let G be a connected semisimple Lie group with at least one absolutely simple factor S such that R-rank(S) is at least 2, and let $\Gamma$ be a uniform lattice in G. (a) If $CH$ holds, then $\Gamma$ has a unique asymptotic cone up to…

In [LW], we construct examples of two-dimensional Hamiltonian stationary self-shrinkers and self-expanders for Lagrangian mean curvature flows, which are asymptotic to the union of two Schoen-Wolfson cones. These self-shrinkers and…

In this paper, we prove a classification theorem for self-shrinkers of the mean curvature flow with $|A|^2\le 1$ in arbitrary codimension. In particular, this implies a gap theorem for self-shrinkers in arbitrary codimension.

In this paper we study random representations of fundamental groups of surfaces into special unitary groups. The random model we use is based on a symplectic form on moduli space due to Atiyah, Bott, and Goldman. Let $\Sigma_{g}$ denote a…

In this article we study smooth asymptotically conical self shrinkers in $\mathbb{R}^4$ with Colding-Minicozzi entropy bounded above by $\Lambda_{1}$.
