We construct the ancient solutions of the hypersurface flows in Euclidean spaces studied by B. Andrews in 1994. As time $t \rightarrow 0^-$ the solutions collapse to a round point where $0$ is the singular time. But as $t\rightarrow-\infty$…
We show that any $4$-dimensional complete self-shrinker in $\mathbb{R}^{5}$ with constant squared norm $S$ of the second fundamental form, $f_{3}=0$ and constant $f_{4}$ is isometric to $\mathbb{R}^{4}$, where $h_{ij}$ are components of the…
We study compact non-selfsimilar ancient noncollapsed solutions to the mean curvature flow in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, called ancient ovals. Our main result is the classification of $k$-ovals: any $k$-oval (characterized by having cylindrical…
Bounds of total curvature and entropy are two common conditions placed on mean curvature flows. We show that these two hypotheses are equivalent for the class of ancient complete embedded smooth planar curve shortening flows, which are…
In this short paper we extend the classical Hoffman-Meeks Halfspace Theorem to self-shrinkers, that is: "Let $P $ be a hyperplane passing through the origin. The only properly immersed self-shrinker $\Sigma$ contained in one of the closed…
We introduce a notion of index for shrinkers of the mean curvature flow. We then prove a gap theorem for the index of rotationally symmetric immersed shrinkers in R^3, namely, that such shrinkers have index at least 3, unless they are one…
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 consider the evolution of a closed convex hypersurface under a volume preserving curvature flow. The speed is given by a power of the m-th mean curvature plus a volume preserving term, including the case of powers of the mean curvature…
In this paper, by considering a special case of the spacelike mean curvature flow investigated by Li and Salavessa [6], we get a condition for the existence of smooth solutions of the Dirichlet problem for the minimal surface equation in…
We study the line bundle mean curvature flow on K\"ahler surfaces under the hypercritical phase and a certain semipositivity condition. We naturally encounter such a condition when considering the blowup of K\"ahler surfaces. We show that…
In this paper, we study complete self-shrinkers in Euclidean space and prove that an $n$-dimensional complete self-shrinker in Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ is isometric to either $\mathbb{R}^{n}$, $S^{n}(\sqrt{n})$, or $S^k…
We consider the mean curvature flow of a closed hypersurface in the complex or quaternionic projective space. Under a suitable pinching assumption on the initial data, we prove apriori estimates on the principal curvatures which imply that…
In this paper, we prove that if the initial submanifold $M_0$ of dimension $n(\ge6)$ satisfies an optimal pinching condition, then the mean curvature flow of arbitrary codimension in hyperbolic spaces converges to a round point in finite…
In this paper, we study $\kappa$-noncollapsed ancient solutions to the Ricci flow with nonnegative curvature operator in higher dimensions. We impose one further assumption: one of the asymptotic shrinking gradient Ricci solitons is the…
We show that every entire self-shrinking solution on $\mathbb{C}^1$ to the K\"ahler-Ricci flow must be generated from a quadratic potential.
(accepted for publication in the Ap.J.) I present a general classification of self-similar solutions to the equations of gravitational hydrodynamics that contain many previous results as special cases. For cold flows with spherical…
Let \Sigma be a compact oriented surface immersed in a four dimensional K\"ahler-Einstein manifold M. We consider the evolution of \Sigma in the direction of its mean curvature vector. It is proved that being symplectic is preserved along…
We prove that any singular K\"ahler--Ricci shrinker $X$ arising as a noncollapsed limit of K\"ahler--Ricci flows admits a natural structure of a locally algebraic complex-analytic variety with log terminal singularities. We then derive…
We present new examples of complete embedded self-similar surfaces under mean curvature by gluing a sphere and a plane. These surfaces have finite genus and are the first examples of self-shrinkers in $\mathbb R^3$ that are not rotationally…
We consider the evolution by mean curvature flow of Lagrangian submanifolds of the complex projective space CP^n. We prove that, if the initial value satisfies a suitable pinching condition, then the flow exists for all times and the…
