We construct a compact, convex ancient solution of mean curvature flow in $\mathbb R^{n+1}$ with $O(1)\times O(n)$ symmetry that lies in a slab of width $\pi$. We provide detailed asymptotics for this solution and show that, up to rigid…

It has long been conjectured that starting at a generic smooth closed embedded surface in R^3, the mean curvature flow remains smooth until it arrives at a singularity in a neighborhood of which the flow looks like concentric spheres or…

We prove stability of rotationally symmetric translating solutions to mean curvature flow. For initial data that converge spatially at infinity to such a soliton, we obtain convergence for large times to that soliton without imposing any…

Type II (ancient) solutions to the Ricci flow on surfaces are not yet classified. It is conjectured that the Rosenau solution and the cigar are the only solutions, modulo scaling. In this paper, we mainly study the backward limit and the…

We construct a new compact convex embedded ancient solution of the $\kappa^\alpha$ flow in $\mathbb R^2$, $\alpha\in(\frac12,1)$ that lies between two parallel lines. Using this solution we classify all convex ancient solutions of the…

We prove that convex hypersurfaces in ${\mathbb R}^{n+1}$ contracting under the flow by any power $\alpha>\frac{1}{n+2}$ of the Gauss curvature converge (after rescaling to fixed volume) to a limit which is a smooth, uniformly convex…

By carrying out refined curvature estimates, we prove better rigidity theorems of complete noncompact ancient solutions to the mean curvature flow in higher codimension under various Gauss image restriction.

We study rotationally symmetric translators for fully nonlinear extrinsic geometric flows driven by a curvature function, and we establish the fine asymptotics of bowl-type evolutions and, when admissible, the construction and…

We study the contraction of a convex immersed plane curve with speed (1/{\alpha})k^{{\alpha}}, where {\alpha}in(0,1] is a constant and show that, if the blow-up rate of the curvature is of type one, it will converge to a homothetic…

Ancient solutions of the Ricci flow arise naturally as models for singularity formation. There has been significant progress towards the classification of such solutions under natural geometric assumptions. Nonnegatively curved solutions in…

We consider the evolution by inverse mean curvature flow of a closed, mean convex and star-shaped hypersurface in the complex hyperbolic space. We prove that the flow is defined for any positive time, the evolving hypersurface stays…

There is an extensive and growing body of work analyzing convex ancient solutions to Mean Curvature Flow (MCF), or equivalently of Rescaled Mean Curvature Flow (RMCF). The goal of this paper is to complement the existing literature, which…

We show that every $n$-dimensional, $\kappa$-noncollapsed, noncompact, complete ancient solution to the Ricci flow with uniformly PIC for $n=4$ or $n\ge 12$ has weakly PIC$_2$ and bounded curvature. Combining this with earlier results, we…

In each dimension $N\geq 3$ and for each real number $\lambda\geq 1$, we construct a family of complete rotationally symmetric solutions to Ricci flow on $\mathbb{R}^{N}$ which encounter a global singularity at a finite time $T$. The…

We study the mean curvature flow of hypersurfaces in $\R^{n+1}$, with initial surfaces sufficiently close to the standard $n$-dimensional sphere. The closeness is in the Sobolev norm with the index greater than $\frac{n}{2}+1$ and therefore…

We construct new ancient compact solutions to the Yamabe flow. Our solutions are rotationally symmetric and converge, as $t \to -\infty$, to two self-similar complete non-compact solutions to the Yamabe flow moving in opposite directions.…

We consider a compact, star-shaped, mean convex hypersurface $\Sigma^2\subset \mathbb{R}^3$. We prove that in some cases the flow exists until it shrinks to a point in a spherical manner, which is very typical for convex surfaces as well…

We show that the solutions to the curvature flow (CF) for curves on the 2-dimensional light cone are in correspondence with the solutions to the inverse curvature flow (ICF). We prove that the ellipses and the hyperboles are the only curves…

In this work, we propose a new evolving geometric flow (called translating mean curvature flow) for the translating solitons of hypersurfaces in $R^{n+1}$. We study the basic properties, such as positivity preserving property, of the…
