We construct a new example of an immortal mean curvature flow of smooth embedded connected surfaces in $\mathbb R^3$, which converges to a plane with multiplicity $2$ as time approaches infinity.
We study the convergence and curvature blow up of La Nave and Tian's continuity method on a generalised Hirzebruch surface. We show that the Gromov-Hausdorff convergence is similar to that of the Kahler-Ricci flow and obtain curvature…
We make several improvements on the results of M.-T. Wang in [8] and his joint paper with M.-P. Tsui [7] concerning the long time existence and convergence for solutions of mean curvature flow in higher co-dimension. Both the curvature…
The goal of this paper is to study Yamabe flow on a complete Riemannian manifold of bounded geometry with possibly infinite volume. In the case of infinite volume, standard volume normalization of the Yamabe flow fails and the flow may not…
We introduce a new geometric flow of Hermitian metrics which evolves an initial metric along the second derivative of the Chern scalar curvature. The flow depends on the choice of a background metric, it always reduces to a scalar equation…

The present paper introduces a new class of geometric measures, the k-th (p,q)-mixed curvature measures, and a natural correspondence-(p,q)-Christoffel-Minkowski problem is proposed. The (p,q)-Christoffel-Minkowski problem posed here can be…
Let $X$ be a toric surface and $u$ be a normalized symplectic potential on the corresponding polygon $P$. Suppose that the Riemannian curvature is bounded by a constant $C_1$ and $\int_{\partial P} u ~ d \sigma < C_2, $ then there exists a…
We study a higher-order parabolic equation which generalizes the Ricci flow on two-dimensional surfaces. The metric is deformed conformally with a speed given by the Q-curvature of the metric. Under a condition on the Q-curvature of the…
