Suppose that [Formula: see text] is a product of compact Riemann surfaces [Formula: see text],[Formula: see text], i.e. [Formula: see text], and [Formula: see text] is a graph in [Formula: see text] of a strictly area dereasing map [Formula: see text]. Let [Formula: see text] evolve along the Kähler–Ricci flow, and [Formula: see text] in [Formula: see text] evolve along the mean curvature flow. We show that [Formula: see text] remains to be a graph of a strictly area decreasing map along the Kähler–Ricci mean curvature flow and exists for all time. In the positive scalar curvature case, we prove the convergence of the flow and the curvature decay along the flow at infinity.

Let [Formula: see text] be a Kähler surface, and [Formula: see text] an immersed surface in [Formula: see text]. The Kähler angle of [Formula: see text] in [Formula: see text] is introduced by Chern and Wolfson [Am. J. Math. 105 (1983) 59–83]. Let [Formula: see text] evolve along the Kähler–Ricci flow, and [Formula: see text] in [Formula: see text] evolve along the mean-curvature flow. We show that the Kähler angle [Formula: see text] satisfies the evolution equation [Formula: see text] where [Formula: see text] is the scalar curvature of [Formula: see text]. The equation implies that if the initial surface is symplectic (Lagrangian), then, along the flow, [Formula: see text] is always symplectic (Lagrangian) at each time [Formula: see text], which we call a symplectic (Lagrangian) Kähler–Ricci mean-curvature flow. In this paper, we mainly study the symplectic Kähler–Ricci mean-curvature flow.

Abstract In this paper, we discuss the monotonicity of the first nonzero eigenvalue of the Laplace operator and the p-Laplace operator under a forced mean curvature flow (MCF). By imposing conditions associated with the mean curvature of the initial hypersurface and the coefficient function of the forcing term of a forced MCF, and some special pinching conditions on the second fundamental form of the initial hypersurface, we prove that the first nonzero closed eigenvalues of the Laplace operator and the p-Laplace operator are monotonic under the forced MCF, respectively, which partially generalize Mao and Zhao’s work. Moreover, we give an example to specify applications of conclusions obtained above.

AbstractWe construct the ancient solutions of the hypersurface flows in Euclidean spaces studied by B. Andrews in 1994.As time {t\rightarrow 0^{-}} the solutions collapse to a round point where 0 is the singular time. But as {t\rightarrow-\infty} the solutions become more and more oval. Near the center the appropriately-rescaled pointed Cheeger–Gromov limits are round cylinder solutions {S^{J}\times\mathbb{R}^{n-J}}, {1\leq J\leq n-1}. These results are the analog of the corresponding results in Ricci flow ({J=n-1}) and mean curvature flow.

Abstract Let F_{n} : (Σ, h_{n} ) \to \mathbb{C}^{2} be a sequence of conformally immersed Lagrangian self-shrinkers with a uniform area upper bound to the mean curvature flow, and suppose that the sequence of metrics \{ h_{n} \} converges smoothly to a Riemannian metric h. We show that a subsequence of \{ F_{n} \} converges smoothly to a branched conformally immersed Lagrangian self-shrinker F_{\infty} : (Σ, h) \to \mathbb{C}^{2} . When the area bound is less than 16π, the limit {F_{\infty}} is an embedded torus. When the genus of Σ is one, we can drop the assumption on convergence h_{n} \to h. When the genus of Σ is zero, we show that there is no branched immersion of Σ as a Lagrangian self-shrinker, generalizing the rigidity result of [21] in dimension two by allowing branch points.

Self-similar flows arise as special solution of the mean curvature flow that preserves the shape of the evolving submanifold. In addition, \lambda -hypersurfaces are the generalization of self-similar hypersurfaces. In the present article we consider \lambda -hypersurfaces in Euclidean spaces which are the generalization of self-shrinkers. We obtained some results related with rotational hypersurfaces in Euclidean 4-space \mathbb{R}^{4} to become self-shrinkers. Furthermore, we classify the general rotational \lambda -hypersurfaces with constant mean curvature. As an application, we give some examples of self-shrinkers and rotational \lambda -hypersurfaces in \mathbb{R}^{4}.
