We prove a sharp quartic curvature pinching for the mean curvature flow in $\mathbb{S}^{n+m}$, $m\ge2$, which generalises Pu's work on the convergence of submanifolds in $\mathbb{S}^{n+m}$ to a round point. Using a blow up argument, we…
In this paper, we prove a classification theorem for self-shrinkers of the mean curvature flow with $|A|^2\le 1$ in arbitrary codimension. In particular, this implies a gap theorem for self-shrinkers in arbitrary codimension.
In this paper, we study scalar curvature of $n$-dimensional self-shrinkers in the Euclidean space $\mathbb R^{n+1}$. If the scalar curvature of an $n$-dimensional self-shrinker is a positive constant, then we prove that the scalar curvature…
