Mathematics Colloquium [url]
Singularity analysis in mean curvature flow
    - Wenkui Du, MIT
Time: 3:05 Room: Lov 101
Abstract/Desc: In this talk, I will discuss the singularity theory of mean curvature flow. As the most natural evolution equation in extrinsic geometry, mean curvature flow has striking applications in geometry, topology and image processing. A central challenge for these applications is understanding the structure of singularities. This talk surveys recent progress on the classification of singularity models of mean curvature flow and their applications. In particular, ancient noncollapsed solutions naturally arise when we consider blow-up limits near singularities. Several results about classification of ancient noncollapsed solutions will be presented. I will also mention my future plan of singularity analysis in geometric variational problems. The talk is based on my joint works with collaborators B. Choi, Daskalopoulos, Haslhofer, Sesum, Zhao and Zhu.
