We will give a new proof of a recent result of P.~Daskalopoulos, G.Huisken and J.R.King ([DH] and reference [7] of [DH]) on the existence of self-similar solution of the inverse mean curvature flow which is the graph of a radially symmetric…

We introduce a geometric evolution equation of hyperbolic type, which governs the evolution of a hypersurface moving in the direction of its mean curvature vector. The flow stems from a geometrically natural action containing kinetic and…

Motivated by a conjecture of De Giorgi, we consider the Almgren-Taylor-Wang scheme for mean curvature flow, where the volume penalization is replaced by a term of the form \[ \int_{E\Delta F} f\Big(\frac{ {\rm d}_F }{\tau}\Big)~dx \] for…

We consider the geometric evolution problem of entire graphs moving by fractional mean curvature. For this, we study the associated nonlocal quasilinear evolution equation satisfied by the family of graph functions. We establish, using an…

In this paper, we study a $1/\kappa^{n}$-type area-preserving non-local flow of convex closed plane curves for any $n>0$. We show that the flow exists globally, the length of evolving curve is non-increasing, and the limiting curve will be…
