Pinched hypersurfaces are compact
We make rigorous and old idea of using mean curvature flow to prove a theorem of Richard Hamilton on the compactness of proper hypersurfaces with pinched, bounded curvature.

Nonlocal diffusion of smooth sets
We consider normal velocity of smooth sets evolving by the $ s- $fractional diffusion. We prove that for small time, the normal velocity of such sets is nearly proportional to the mean curvature of the boundary of the initial set for $ s\in [\frac{1}{2},

The fractional mean curvature flow
In this note, we present some recent results in the study of the fractional mean curvature flow, that is a geometric evolution of the boundary of a set whose speed is given by the fractional mean curvature.

Non-Parametric Mean Curvature Flow with Prescribed Contact Angle in Riemannian Products
Assuming that there exists a translating soliton u∞ with speed C in a domain Ω and with prescribed contact angle on ∂Ω, we prove that a graphical solution to the mean curvature flow with the same prescribed contact angle converges to u∞ + Ct as t →∞.

Convergence Rates of the Allen-Cahn Equation to Mean Curvature Flow: A Short Proof Based on Relative Entropies [PDF]
We give a short and self-contained proof for rates of convergence of the Allen-Cahn equation towards mean curvature flow, assuming that a classical (smooth) solution to the latter exists and starting from well-prepared initial data. Our approach is based

The local structure of the energy landscape in multiphase mean curvature flow: Weak-strong uniqueness and stability of evolutions [PDF]
We prove that in the absence of topological changes, the notion of \operatorname{BV} solutions to planar multiphase mean curvature flow does not allow for a mechanism for (unphysical) non-uniqueness.

Mean curvature flow with surgery [PDF]
We give a new proof for the existence of mean curvature flow with surgery of 2-convex hypersurfaces in $R^N$, as announced in arXiv:1304.0926. Our proof works for all $N \geq 3$, including mean convex surfaces in $R^3$. We also derive a priori estimates for a more general class of flows in a local and flexible setting.

Quantitative Alexandrov theorem and asymptotic behavior of the volume preserving mean curvature flow [PDF]
We prove a new quantitative version of the Alexandrov theorem which states that if the mean curvature of a regular set in R^{n+1} is close to a constant in L^{n}-sense, then the set is close to a union of disjoint balls with respect to the Hausdorff ...

Recent rigidity results for graphs with prescribed mean curvature
This survey describes some recent rigidity results obtained by the authors for the prescribed mean curvature problem on graphs u : M → R. Emphasis is put on minimal, CMC and capillary graphs, as well as on graphical solitons for the mean curvature flow ...

Mean curvature flow is the negative gradient flow of volume, so any hypersurface flows through hypersurfaces in the direction of steepest descent for volume and eventually becomes extinct in finite time. Before it becomes extinct, topological changes can occur as it goes through singularities. If the hypersurface is in general or generic position, then
