Some of the most worrisome potential singularity models for the mean curvature flow of $3$-dimensional hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{R}^4$ are noncollapsed wing-like flows, i.e. noncollapsed flows that are asymptotic to a wedge. In this paper,…
We consider ancient solutions to the mean curvature flow in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ ($n \geq 3$) that are weakly convex, uniformly two-convex, and satisfy derivative estimates $|\nabla A| \leq \gamma_1 |H|^2, |\nabla^2 A| \leq \gamma_2 |H|^3$.…
We provide several characterisations of collapsing and noncollapsing in convex ancient mean curvature flow, establishing in particular that collapsing occurs if and only if the flow is asymptotic to at least one Grim hyperplane. As a…
In this paper, we introduce and study the conformal mean curvature flow of submanifolds of higher codimension in the Euclidean space $\bbr^n$. This kind of flow is a special case of a general modified mean curvature flow which is of various…
In this paper, we consider the classification of compact ancient noncollapsed mean curvature flows of hypersurfaces in arbitrary dimensions. More precisely, we study $k$-ovals in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, defined as ancient noncollapsed solutions…
We prove a local version of the noncollapsing estimate for mean curvature flow. By combining our result with earlier work of X.-J. Wang, it follows that certain ancient convex solutions that sweep out the entire space are noncollapsed.
In this paper we study the geometry of first time singularities of the mean curvature flow. By the curvature pinching estimate of Huisken and Sinestrari, we prove that a mean curvature flow of hypersurfaces in the Euclidean space $\R^{n+1}$…
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…
Ancient solutions arise in the study of parabolic blow-ups. If we can categorize ancient solutions, we can better understand blow-up limits. Based on an argument of Giga and Kohn, we give a Liouville-type theorem restricting ancient,…
In this paper, we prove the mean-convex neighborhood conjecture for neck singularities of the mean curvature flow in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ for all $n\geq 3$: we show that if a mean curvature flow $\{M_t\}$ in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ has an…
In this paper we study the classification of ancient convex solutions to the mean curvature flow in $\R^{n+1}$. An open problem related to the classification of type II singularities is whether a convex translating solution is…
We continue the study, initiated by the first two authors in \cite{IW19}, of Type-II curvature blow-up in mean curvature flow of complete noncompact embedded hypersurfaces. In particular, we construct mean curvature flow solutions, in the…
We prove the Multiplicity One Conjecture for mean curvature flows of surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$. Specifically, we show that any blow-up limit of such mean curvature flows has multiplicity one. This has several applications. First, combining…
Under mean curvature flow, a closed, embedded hypersurface $M(t)$ becomes singular in finite time. For certain classes of mean-convex mean curvature flows, we show the continuity of the first singular time $T$ and the limit set "$M(T)$",…
We consider the evolution by mean curvature of smooth $n$-dimensional submanifolds in $\mathbb{R}^{n+k}$ which are compact and quadratically pinched. We will be primarily interested in flows of high codimension, the case $k\geq 2$. We prove…
In this paper, we classify all noncollapsed singularities of the mean curvature flow in $\mathbb{R}^4$. Specifically, we prove that any ancient noncollapsed solution either is one of the classical historical examples (namely…
We construct closed, embedded, ancient mean curvature flows in each dimension $n\ge 2$ with the topology of $S^1 \times S^{n-1}$. These examples are not mean convex and not solitons. They are constructed by analyzing perturbations of the…
It is conjectured that the mean curvature blows up at the first singular time of the mean curvature flow in Euclidean space, at least in dimensions less or equal to 7. We show that the mean curvature blows up at the singularities of the…
In the pseudo-Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^{n+1,k}$, we consider the mean curvature flow of $n$-dimensional spacelike submanifolds with spacelike codimension one and arbitrary timelike codimension $k$. We show that if the initial submanifold…
In this paper, we prove that if $M_t\subset \mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, $2\leq n\leq 6$, is the $n$-dimensional closed embedded $\mathcal{F}-$stable solution to mean curvature flow with mean curvature of $M_t$ is uniformly bounded on $[0,T)$ for…
