The paper constructs solutions with infinite-time singularities in Lagrangian mean curvature flow.

Butscher, D. Lee, Y. Lee, and Joyce constructed a special Lagrangian submanifold by gluing a Lawlor neck into a transverse intersection point of two special Lagrangian submanifolds. We prove a uniqueness theorem for the gluing of flat special Lagrangian tori of real dimension 3 in a flat complex torus of complex dimens…

We introduce Lagrangian mean curvature flow with boundary in Calabi--Yau manifolds by defining a natural mixed Dirichlet-Neumann boundary condition, and prove that under this flow, the Lagrangian condition is preserved. We also study in detail the flow of equivariant Lagrangian discs with boundary on the Lawlor neck an…

Explains examples of Lagrangian flow with circle symmetry.

We study almost-calibrated, $O(n)$-equivariant Lagrangian mean curvature flow in $\mathbb{C}^n$, and prove structural theorems about the Type I and Type II blowups of finite-time singularities. In particular, we prove that any Type I blowup of such a flow must be a special Lagrangian pair of transversely intersecting p…

We prove two main results: (a) Suppose $L$ is a closed, embedded, exact special Lagrangian $m$-fold in ${\mathbb C}^m$ for $m\ge 3$ asymptotic at infinity to the union $Π_1\cupΠ_2$ of two transverse special Lagrangian planes $Π_1,Π_2$ in ${\mathbb C}^m$. Then $L$ is one of the explicit 'Lawlor neck' family of examples …

Proves minimality of tensor varieties, generalizing previous results.

Paper detects duality obstruction in smooth calibrations.

We prove two gluing theorems for special Lagrangian (SL) conifolds in complex space C^m. Conifolds are a key ingredient in the compactification problem for moduli spaces of compact SLs in Calabi-Yau manifolds. In particular, our theorems yield the first examples of smooth SL conifolds with 3 or more planar ends and the…

Derives generalizations of the long neck principle and spectral width inequality.

In this paper we study motion of surfaces of revolution under the mean curvature flow. For an open set of initial conditions close to cylindrical surfaces we show that the solution forms a "neck" which pinches in a finite time at a single point. We also obtain a detailed description of the neck pinching process.

In this paper, we prove some refined estimate in the neck region when a sequence of harmonic maps from surfaces blow up. The new estimate allows us to see the shape of the center of the neck region. As an application, we prove an inequality about the nullity and index when blow-up occurs.

Study geodesics on neck-degenerate manifolds, focusing and winding behavior observed.

The shape equation and linking conditions for a vesicle with two-phase domains are derived. We refine the conjecture on the general neck condition for the limit shape of a budding vesicle proposed by Jülicher and Lipowsky [Phys. Rev. Lett. \textbf{70}, 2964 (1993); Phys. Rev. E \textbf{53}, 2670 (1996)], and then we us…

In this paper we are dealing with mean curvature flow with surgeries of two-convex hypersurfaces. The main focus is to expand on the discussion in Section $3$ of Mean Curvature Flow with Surgeries of Two-Convex Hypersurfaces by Huisken and Sinestrari. Firstly we wish to establish how the neck detection lemma allows us …

We show that every area-minimizing hypercone and every oriented Lawlor cone in [Law91] can be realized as a tangent cone at a point of some homologically area-minimizing singular compact submanifold. In particular this generalizes the result of N. Smale [Sma99].

This paper proves area-minimizing cones over Grassmannian manifolds.

We will give a weak energy identity for Sacks-Uhlenbeck approximation of harmonic maps and calculate the length of the necks.

We show the area-minimality property of all homogeneous area-minimizing hypercones in Euclidean spaces (classified by Lawlor) following Lawson's original idea in his 72' Trans. A.M.S. paper "The equivariant Plateau problem and interior regularity". Moreover, each of them enjoys (coflat) calibrations singular only at th…

We study moduli spaces of Seiberg-Witten monopoles over spin^c Riemannian 4-manifolds with long necks and/or tubular ends. This first part discusses compactness, exponential decay, and transversality. As applications we prove two vanishing theorems for Seiberg-Witten invariants.

In this paper we prove the existence of families of n-dimensional complete embedded minimal submanifolds of C^n with a prescribed configuration of k>1 asymptotic planes. These submanifolds are obtained by desingularizing the intersection of the asymptotes, using a gluing theorem applied to a generalization of a special…

Constructs minimal immersions with singularities.

We establish a gluing theorem for monopoles over 4--manifolds containing long necks. The theorem is stated in terms of an ungluing map defined explicitly in terms of data that appear naturally in applications. Orientations of moduli spaces are handled using Benevieri--Furi's concept of orientations of Fredholm operator…

We examine a Type-1 neck pinch singularity in simplicial Ricci flow (SRF) for an axisymmetric piecewise flat 3-dimensional geometry with 3-sphere topology. SRF was recently introduced as an unstructured mesh formulation of Hamilton's Ricci flow (RF). It describes the RF of a piecewise-flat simplicial geometry. In this …

3D Ricci flows have bounded diameter before Type I singularities.

It is a fundamental open problem for the mean curvature flow, and in fact for many partial differential equations, whether or not all blowup limits are selfsimilar. In this short note, we prove that for the mean curvature flow of mean convex surfaces all limit flows are selfsimilar (static, shrinking or translating) if…
