In this paper, we investigate the general formulation for inextensible flows of curves in En. The necessary and sufficient conditions for inextensible curve flow are expressed as a partial differential equation involving the curvatures.

In this note, we prove the existence of weak solutions of the Chern-Ricci flow through blow downs of exceptional curves, as well as backwards smooth convergence away from the exceptional curves on compact complex surfaces. The smoothing…

We study the mean curvature flow of complete space-like submanifolds in pseudo-Euclidean space with bounded Gauss image, as well as that of complete submanifolds in Euclidean space with convex Gauss image. By using the confinable property…

In the paper published in Duke Math. J. 1993, Y. Wen studied a second-order parabolic equation for inextensible elastic \emph{closed} curves in $\mathbb{R}^{2}$ toward inextensible elasticae. In this article, we extend Wen's result to the…

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…

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…

In this work, we study the convergence of the normalized Yamabe flow with positive Yamabe constant on a class of pseudo-manifolds that includes stratified spaces with iterated cone-edge metrics. We establish convergence under a low energy…

A modified Reynolds equation governing the steady flow of a fluid with low Reynolds number through a curvilinear, narrow tube, with its derivation from Stokes equations through asymptotic methods is presented. The channel considered may…

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…

We prove that the Inverse Mean Curvature Flow of a non-star-shaped, mean-convex embedded sphere in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ with symmetry about an axis and sufficiently long, thick necks exists for all time and homothetically converges to a round…

Given two disjoint nested embedded closed curves in the plane, both evolving under curve shortening flow, we show that the modulus of the enclosed annulus is monotonically increasing in time. An analogous result holds within any ambient…

We prove that curve shortening flow on the round sphere displays sharp chord-arc improvement, precisely as in the planar setting (Andrews and Bryan, Comm. Anal. Geom., 2011). As in the planar case, the sharp estimate implies control on the…

For $n\geq 2$, we construct $I$-dimensional family of embedded ancient solutions to mean curvature flow arise from an unstable minimal hypersurface $\Sigma$ with finite total curvature in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, where $I$ is the Morse index of…

In this article, we study a locally constrained fully nonlinear curvature flow for convex capillary hypersurfaces in half-space. We prove that the flow preserves the convexity, exists for all time, and converges smoothly to a spherical cap.…

For any complete noncompact K$\ddot{a}$hler manifold with nonnegative and bounded holomorphic bisectional curvature,we provide the necessary and sufficient condition for non-ancient solution to the Ricci flow in this paper.

We consider the curve shortening flow applied to a class of figure-eight curves: those with dihedral symmetry, convex lobes, and a monotonicity assumption on the curvature. We prove that when (non-conformal) linear transformations are…

A recent article by the first two authors together with B Andrews and V-M Wheeler considered the so-called `ideal curve flow', a sixth order curvature flow that seeks to deform closed planar curves to curves with least variation of total…

We prove the existence of embedded closed constant curvature curves on convex surfaces.

This article gives an alternative approach to the self-shrinking and self-expanding solutions of the curve shortening flow, which are related to singularity formation of the mean curvature flow. The motivation for the self-similar solutions…

In this paper, we consider the anisotropic $\alpha$-Gauss curvature flow for complete noncompact convex hypersurfaces in the Euclidean space with the anisotropy determined by a smooth closed uniformly convex Wulff shape. We show that for…
