We extend some convergence results on nonsingular compact Ricci flows in the papers \cite{Ha:1}, \cite{Se:1} and \cite{FZZ:2} to certain infinite volume noncompact cases which are "partially" nonsingular. As an application, for a finite…
The study of the mean curvature flow from the perspective of partial differential equations began with Gerhard Huisken's pioneering work in 1984. Since that time, the mean curvature flow of hypersurfaces has been a lively area of study.…
We prove uniform curvature estimates for homogeneous Ricci flows: For a solution defined on $[0,t]$ the norm of the curvature tensor at time $t$ is bounded by the maximum of $C(n)/t$ and $C(n) ( scal(g(t)) - scal(g(0)) )$. This is used to…
Water inside a nanocapillary becomes ordered, resulting in unconventional behavior. A profound enhancement of water flow inside nanometer thin capillaries made of graphene has been observed [B. Radha et.al., Nature (London) 538, 222…
The gradual fall of the shear viscosity below 2.8K, observed in a liquid helium 4 flowing through a capillary, is examined. The disappearance of the shear viscosity in a capillary flow is a manifestation of superfluidity in dissipative…
Mean curvature flows of isoparametric submanifolds in Euclidean spaces and spheres have been studied by Liu and Terng. In particular, it was proved that such flows always have ancient solutions. This is also true for mean curvature flows of…

We prove that if the initial hypersurface of the mean curvature flow in spheres satisfies a sharp pinching condition, then the solution of the flow converges to a round point or a totally geodesic sphere. Our result improves the famous…
We introduce Lagrangian mean curvature flow with boundary in Calabi--Yau manifolds by defining a natural mixed Dirichlet-Neumann boundary condition, and prove that under this flow, the Lagrangian condition is preserved. We also study in…
We present a synthetic notion of scalar curvature (and its integral) for Riemannian manifolds and metric measure spaces, defined in terms of the initial slope of a Gaussian (double) integral. We explicitly calculate the integral scalar…
In this paper, we study the Ricci flow on a closed manifold of dimension $n \ge 4$ and finite time interval $[0,T)~(T < \infty)$ on which the scalar curvature are uniformly bounded. We prove that if such flow of dimension $4 \le n \le 7$…
In this paper, we investigate the mean curvature flow of compact surfaces in $4$-dimensional space forms. We prove the convergence theorems for the mean curvature flow under certain pinching conditions involving the normal curvature, which…
In this paper we investigate the one-dimensional hyperbolic mean curvature flow for closed plane curves. We show that there exists a class of initial velocities such that the solution of the corresponding initial value problem exists only…
We prove that sufficiently low-entropy closed hypersurfaces can be perturbed so that their mean curvature flow encounters only spherical and cylindrical singularities. Our theorem applies to all closed surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$ with…
We study solutions to the inverse mean curvature flow which evolve by homotheties of a given submanifold with arbitrary dimension and codimension. We first show that the closed ones are necessarily spherical minimal immersions and so we…
