چکیده
We obtain a Calabi-Yau type volume growth estimates for complete noncompact self-shrinkers of the mean curvature flow, more precisely, every complete noncompact properly immersed self-shrinker has at least linear volume growth.

(1.1) H = −x where H denotes the mean curvature vector of the immersion and ⊥ is the projection onto the normal bundle of M . Self-shrinkers play an important role in the study of the mean curvature flow. Not only they are shrinking homothetically under the mean curvature flow, but also they describe all possible blow ups at a given singularity of the mean curvature flow. In the curve case, U. ...
متن کاملSmooth Compactness of Self-shrinkers
We prove a smooth compactness theorem for the space of embedded selfshrinkers in R. Since self-shrinkers model singularities in mean curvature flow, this theorem can be thought of as a compactness result for the space of all singularities and it plays an important role in studying generic mean curvature flow. 0. Introduction A surface Σ ⊂ R is said to be a self-shrinker if it satisfies (0.1) H ...
متن کاملThe Curvature of Gradient Ricci Solitons
Our goal in this paper is to obtain further information about the curvature of gradient shrinking Ricci solitons. This is important for a better understanding and ultimately for the classification of these manifolds. The classification of gradient shrinkers is known in dimensions 2 and 3, and assuming locally conformally flatness, in all dimensions n ≥ 4 (see [14, 13, 6, 15, 20, 12, 2]). Many o...
متن کاملThe Morse index of mean curvature flow self - shrinkers by Zihan
In this thesis, we will introduce a notion of index of shrinkers of the mean curvature flow. We will then prove a gap theorem for the index of rotationally symmetric immersed shrinkers in R', namely, that such shrinkers have index at least 3, unless they are one of the stable ones: the sphere, the cylinder, or the plane. We also provide a generalization of the result to higher dimensions. Thesi...
متن کاملA Sharp Lower Bound for the Entropy of Closed Hypersurfaces up to Dimension Six
In [5], Colding-Ilmanen-Minicozzi-White showed that within the class of closed smooth self-shrinkers in R, the entropy is uniquely minimized at the round sphere. They conjectured that, for 2 ≤ n ≤ 6, the round sphere minimizes the entropy among all closed smooth hypersurfaces. Using an appropriate weak mean curvature flow, we prove their conjecture. For these dimensions, our approach also gives...
