We consider an anisotropic curvature flow $V= A(\mathbf{n})H + B(\mathbf{n})$ in a band domain $\Omega :=[-1,1]\times R$, where $\mathbf{n}$, $V$ and $H$ denote the unit normal vector, normal velocity and curvature, respectively, of a…

We study the geometry of the foliation by constant Gaussian curvature surfaces $(\Sigma_k)_k$ of a hyperbolic end, and how it relates to the structures of its boundary at infinity and of its pleated boundary. First, we show that the…

In 1994, Vel\'{a}zquez constructed a countable family of complete hypersurfaces flowing in $\mathbb{R}^{2N}$ $(N\geq 4)$ by mean curvature, each of which develops a type II singularity at the origin in finite time. Later Guo and Sesum…

In the spirit of the paper "Large conformal metrics of prescribed Gauss curvature on surfaces of higher genus" by Borer-Galimberti-Struwe, where we dealt with the case of a closed Riemann surface $(M,g_0)$ of genus greater than one, here we…

On a closed Riemannian surface $(M,\bar g)$ with negative Euler characteristic, we study the problem of finding conformal metrics with prescribed volume $A>0$ and the property that their Gauss curvatures $f_\lambda= f + \lambda$ are given…

In this paper we study the Type IIb mean curvature flow. We first prove that if the convex entire graph $(y,u(|y|))$ over $\mathbb{R}^n$, $n\geq 2$, satisfying there exist positive constants $\epsilon$, $c$ and $N$ such that $ u'(r)\geq c…

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.

In this note we prove the backwards uniqueness of the mean curvature flow for (codimension one) hypersurfaces in a Euclidean space. More precisely, let $F_t, \widetilde{F}_t:M^n \rightarrow \mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ be two complete solutions of the…

Inspired by the idea of Colding-Minicozzi in [CM1], we define (mean curvature flow) entropy for submanifolds in a general ambient Riemannian manifold. In particular, this entropy is equivalent to area growth of a closed submanifold in a…
