Guan–Li type mean curvature flow for free boundary hypersurfaces in a ball [PDF]
In this paper we introduce a Guan-Li type volume preserving mean curvature flow for free boundary hypersurfaces in a ball. We give a concept of star-shaped free boundary hypersurfaces in a ball and show that the Guan-Li type mean curvature flow has long ...

Singularity Profile in the Mean Curvature Flow [PDF]
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 $\R^{n+1}$ with positive mean curvature is $ $-noncollapsing, and a blow-up sequence converges locally smoothly along a ...

A note on Alexandrov immersed mean curvature flow [PDF]
We demonstrate that the property of being Alexandrov immersed is preserved along mean curvature flow. Furthermore, we demonstrate that mean curvature flow techniques for mean convex embedded flows such as noncollapsing and gradient estimates also hold in this setting. We also indicate the necessary modifications to the work of Brendle--Huisken to allow

A finite element error analysis for axisymmetric mean curvature flow [PDF]
We consider the numerical approximation of axisymmetric mean curvature flow with the help of linear finite elements. In the case of a closed genus-1 surface, we derive optimal error bounds with respect to the $L^2$-- and $H^1$--norms for a fully discrete

Is mean curvature flow a gradient flow?
It is well-known that the mean curvature flow is a formal gradient flow of the perimeter functional. However, by the work of Michor and Mumford [7,8], the formal Riemannian structure that is compatible with the gradient flow structure induces a degenerate metric on the space of hypersurfaces.

Extend Mean Curvature Flow with Finite Integral Curvature [PDF]
In this note, we first prove that the solution of mean curvature flow on a finite time interval $[0,T)$ can be extended over time $T$ if the space-time integration of the norm of the second fundamental form is finite. Secondly, we prove that the solution of certain mean curvature flow on a finite time interval $[0,T)$ can be extended over time $T$ if ...

A Comparison Principle for the Mean Curvature Flow Equation with Discontinuous Coefficients
We study the level set equation in a bounded domain when the velocity of the interface is given by the mean curvature plus a discontinuous velocity. We prove a comparison principle for the initial-boundary value problem whose consequence is uniqueness of

Nguyen’s tridents and the classification of semigraphical translators for mean curvature flow [PDF]
We construct a one-parameter family of singly periodic translating solutions to mean curvature flow that converge as the period tends to 0 to the union of a grim reaper surface and a plane that bisects it lengthwise.

Singular perturbations of mean curvature flow
We introduce a regularization method for mean curvature flow of a submanifold of arbitrary codimension in the Euclidean space, through higher order equations. We prove that the regularized problems converge to the mean curvature flow for all times before the first singularity.

The mean curvature at the first singular time of the mean curvature flow
Consider a family of smooth immersions F( \cdot ,t):M^{n}\rightarrow \mathbb{R}^{n + 1} of closed hypersurfaces in \mathbb{R}^{n + 1} moving by the mean curvature flow \frac{\partial F(p,t)}{\partial t} = −
