We show some results for the $L^2$ curvature flow linked by the theme of addressing collapsing phenomena. First we show long time existence and convergence of the flow for $SO(3)$-invariant initial data on $S^3$, as well as a long time…

Solutions to scalar curvature equations have the property that all possible blow-up points are isolated, at least in low dimensions. This property is commonly used as the first step in the proofs of compactness. We show that this result…

We study a class of fourth order curvature flows on a compact Riemannian manifold, which includes the gradient flows of a number of quadratic geometric functionals, as for instance the L2 norm of the curvature. Such flows can develop a…

We develop a new boundary condition for the weak inverse mean curvature flow, which gives canonical and non-trivial solutions in bounded domains. Roughly speaking, the boundary of the domain serves as an outer obstacle, and the evolving…

For singular mean field equations defined on a compact Riemann surface, we prove the uniqueness of bubbling solutions as far as blowup points are either regular points or non-quantized singular sources. In particular the uniqueness result…

We consider the blow-up of solutions to the following parameterized nonlinear wave equation: $ u_{tt} = c(u)^{2} u_{xx} + \lambda c(u)c'(u)( u_x)^2$ with the real parameter $\lambda$. In previous works, it was reported that there exist…
