A well-known question of Perelman concerns the classification of noncompact ancient solutions to the Ricci flow in dimension $3$ which have positive sectional curvature and are $\kappa$-noncollapsed. In this paper, we solve the analogous…

We consider an embedded convex ancient solution $\Gamma_t$ to the curve shortening flow in $\mathbb{R}^2$. We prove that there are only two possibilities: the family $\Gamma_t$ is either the family of contracting circles, which is a type I…

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 prove a parabolically scale-invariant variation of the planarity estimate in \cite{Na22} for higher codimension mean curvature flow, borrowing ideas from work of Brendle--Huisken--Sinestrari \cite{BHS}. Additionally, we prove convexity…

We study ancient mean curvature flows in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ whose tangent flow at $-\infty$ is a shrinking cylinder $\mathbb{R}^{k}\times S^{n-k}(\sqrt{2(n-k)|t|})$, where $1\leq k\leq n-1$. We prove that the cylindrical profile function…

We define a new notion of translations in the hyperbolic plane and explicitly solve the equation of the curve shortening flow. Next, we consider the class of ancient convex solutions and solve the equation of the curve shortening flow when…

We prove, in all dimensions $n\geq 2$, that there exists a convex translator lying in a slab of width $\pi\sec\theta$ in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ (and in no smaller slab) if and only if $\theta\in[0,\frac{\pi}{2}]$. We also obtain convexity and…

In this paper, we investigate closed strictly convex hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ which shrink self-similarly under a large family of fully nonlinear curvature flows by high powers of curvature. When the speed function is given by…

As is well known, self-similar solutions to the mean curvature flow, including self-shrinkers, translating solitons and self-expanders, arise naturally in the singularity analysis of the mean curvature flow. Recently, Guo \cite{Guo} proved…

For every closed set $K \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ and every $m \geq 2$, we construct a mean-convex ancient solution to mean curvature flow of hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{R}^{m+n}$, with respect to a smooth Riemannian metric arbitrarily…

We study properly immersed ancient solutions of the codimension one mean curvature flow in $n$-dimensional Euclidean space, and classify the convex hulls of the subsets of space reached by any such flow. In particular, it follows that any…

Ancient solutions of Lagrangian mean curvature flow in C^n naturally arise as Type II blow-ups. In this extended note we give structural and classification results for such ancient solutions in terms of their blow-down and, motivated by the…

Mean curvature flow for isoparametric submanifolds in Euclidean spaces and spheres was studied by the authors in [LT]. In this paper, we will show that all these solutions are ancient solutions. We also discuss rigidity of ancient mean…
