Workshop on Mean Curvature and Regularity

Abstract: In this talk we show that given any regular cone with entropy less than that of round cylinder, all smooth self-expanding solutions of the mean curvature flow that are asymptotic to the cone are in the same isotopy class. This is joint...

Abstract: Consider an area minimizing integral current $T$ which has a smooth boundary $\Gamma$ of multiplicity $1$ in some smooth Riemannian ambient manifold $\Sigma$. If the current has codimension $1$ a famous work of Hardt and Simon gives full...

Abstract: The Clifford torus is the simplest nontotally geodesic minimal surface in S^3. It is a product surface, it is helicoidal, and it is a solution obtained by separation of variables. We will show that there are more minimal submanifolds with...

Abstract: The Allen-Cahn equation behaves as a desingularization of the area functional. This allows for a PDE approach to the construction of minimal hypersurfaces in closed Riemannian manifolds. After presenting and overview of the subject, I...
