Surfaces that evolve by mean curvature flow develop singularities. These singularities can be modeled by self-shrinkers, surfaces that shrink by dilations under the flow. Singularities modeled on classical self-shrinkers, namely spheres and…
A closed surface evolving under mean curvature flow becomes singular in finite time. Near the singularity, the surface resembles a self-shrinker, a surface that shrinks by dilations under mean curvature flow. If the singularity is modeled…
In this note, we numerically estimate Colding-Minicozzi entropies of some self-shrinkers and get that Colding-Minicozzi entropies of $n$-dimensional Angenent torus are decreasing about dimension $n$ ($2\leq n\leq 5*10^7$), which partially…
Self-shrinkers are the special solutions of mean curvature flow in $\mathbf{R}^{n+1}$ that evolve by shrinking homothetically; they serve as singularity models for the flow. The entropy of a hypersurface introduced by Colding-Minicozzi is a…
We give the first rigorous construction of complete, embedded self-shrinking hypersurfaces under mean curvature flow, since Angenent's torus in 1989. The surfaces exist for any sufficiently large prescribed genus $g$, and are non-compact…
Singularities of the mean curvature flow of an embedded surface in R^3 are expected to be modelled on self-shrinkers that are compact, cylindrical, or asymptotically conical. In order to understand the flow before and after the singular…
The entropy functional introduced by Colding and Minicozzi plays a fundamental role in the analysis of mean curvature flow. However, unlike the hypersurface case, relatively little about the entropy is known in the higher-codimension case.…
We construct many closed, embedded mean curvature self-shrinking surfaces $\Sigma_g^2\subseteq\mathbb{R}^3$ of high genus $g=2k$, $k\in \mathbb{N}$. Each of these shrinking solitons has isometry group equal to the dihedral group on $2g$…
Let $M\subset {\mathbf R}^{m+1}$ be a smooth, closed, codimension-one self-shrinker (for mean curvature flow) with nontrivial $k^{\rm th}$ homology. We show that the entropy of $M$ is greater than or equal to the entropy of a round…
In [5], Colding-Ilmanen-Minicozzi-White showed that within the class of closed smooth self-shrinkers in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, the entropy is uniquely minimized at the round sphere. They conjectured that, for $2\leq n\leq 6$, the round sphere…
We study geometric properties of the Lagrangian self-shrinking tori in $\mathbb R^4$. When the area is bounded above uniformly, we prove that the entropy for the Lagrangian self-shrinking tori can only take finitely many values; this is…
The only non-compact linearly stable singularity models for mean curvature flow are cylindrical by Colding-Minicozzi. The uniqueness of blowups at singularities modeled on the cylinders has been established by the same authors. In this…
Self-shrinkers model singularities of the mean curvature flow; they are defined as the special solutions that contract homothetically under the flow. Colding-Ilmanen-Minicozzi showed that cylindrical self-shrinkers are rigid in a strong…
The entropy of a hypersurface is a geometric invariant that measures complexity and is invariant under rigid motions and dilations. It is given by the supremum over all Gaussian integrals with varying centers and scales. It is monotone…
This paper proves that, at the first singular time for a smoothly immersed surface moving by mean curvature flow in a n-manifold, each tangent flow is given by a smooth, branched shrinker, possibly with multiplicity. If n=3 and if the…
We study curve-shortening flow for twisted curves in $\mathbb{R}^3$ (i.e., curves with nowhere vanishing curvature $\kappa$ and torsion $\tau$) and define a notion of torsion-curvature entropy. Using this functional, we show that either the…
Entropy is a natural geometric quantity measuring the complexity of a surface embedded in $\mathbb{R}^3$. For dynamical reasons relating to mean curvature flow, Colding-Ilmanen-Minicozzi-White conjectured that the entropy of any closed…
We prove that a closed immersed plane curve with total curvature $2\pi m$ has entropy at least $m$ times the entropy of the embedded circle, as long as it generates a type I singularity under the curve shortening flow (CSF). We construct…
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…
We compute the entanglement entropy of an interval for a chiral scalar on a circle at an arbitrary temperature. We use the resolvent method, which involves expressing the entropy in terms of the resolvent of a certain operator, and we…
