We construct a weakly complete flat surface in hyperbolic 3-space having a pair of hyperbolic Gauss maps both of whose images are contained in an arbitrarily given open disc in the ideal boundary of H^3. This construction is accomplished as…
We give an overview of the existence and regularity results for curvature flows and how these flows can be used to solve some problems in geometry and physics.
In this paper, we consider the mean curvature flow of convex hypersurfaces in Euclidean spaces with a general forcing term. We show that the flow may shrink to a point in finite time if the forcing term is small, or exist for all times and…
We consider strictly convex hypersurfaces with the boundary which meets a strictly convex cone perpendicularly. We prove that if these hypersurfaces expand inside this cone, driven by the power of the Gauss curvature, then the evolution…

The aim of this manuscript is to obtain rigidity and non-existence results for parabolic spacelike submanifolds with causal mean curvature vector field in orthogonally splitted spacetimes, and in particular, in globally hyperbolic…
Using the Bryant representation, we define a new flux on homology classes of CMC-1 surfaces in hyperbolic 3-space, satisfying a balancing formula which is useful to show nonexistencd of certain kinds of complete CMC-1 surfaces.
We introduce a combinatorial curvature flow for PL metrics on compact triangulated 3-manifolds with boundary consisting of surfaces of negative Euler characteristic. The flow tends to find the complete hyperbolic metric with totally…
In this study, we define the generalized normal ruled surface of a curve in the Euclidean 3-space $E^3$. We study the geometry of such surfaces by calculating the Gaussian and mean curvatures to determine when the surface is flat or minimal…

In this paper, we prove some convergence theorems for the mean curvature flow of closed submanifolds in the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^{n+d}$ under integral curvature conditions. As a consequence, we obtain several differentiable sphere…
We consider the surface diffusion and Willmore flows acting on a general class of (possibly non-compact) hypersurfaces parameterized over a uniformly regular reference manifold possessing a tubular neighborhood with uniform radius. The…
We show that strictly convex surfaces expanding by the inverse Gauss curvature flow converge to infinity in finite time. After appropriate rescaling, they converge to spheres. We describe the algorithm to find our main test function.
In this article, we prove the mean convex neighborhood conjecture for the mean curvature flow of surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$. Namely, if the flow has a spherical or cylindrical singularity at a space-time point $X=(x,t)$, then there exists a…

Flows on surfaces are one of the most fundamental and classical objects in dynamical systems, and are studied from various areas (e.g. integrable systems, differential equations, fluid mechanics). Though hyperbolic flows and recurrent flows…
