Study on self-similar surfaces and their mapping class groups generated by involutions.

We present new examples of complete embedded self-similar surfaces under mean curvature by gluing a sphere and a plane. These surfaces have finite genus and are the first examples of self-shrinkers in $\mathbb R^3$ that are not rotationally symmetric. The strategy for the construction is to start with a family of initi…

We carry out the first main step towards the construction of new examples of complete embedded self-similar surfaces under mean curvature flow. An approximate solution is obtained by taking two known examples of self-similar surfaces and desingularizing the intersection circle using an appropriately modified singly per…

We study the Dirichlet problem associated to the equation for self-similar surfaces for graphs over the Euclidean plane with a disk removed. We show the existence of a solution provided the boundary conditions on the boundary circle are small enough and satisfy some symmetries. This is the second step towards the const…

Infinite-genus surfaces have many isospectral hyperbolic structures.

We construct helicoid-like embedded minimal disks with axes along self-similar curves modeled on logarithmic spirals. The surfaces have a self-similarity inherited from the curves and the nature of the construction. Moreover, inside of a "logarithmic cone", the surfaces are embedded.

We investigate three-dimensional surfaces where the normal vector forms a constant angle with the radius vector. These surfaces naturally extend equiangular (logarithmic) spirals in the plane.

In this paper, we introduce the notion of asymptotic self-similar sets on general doubling metric spaces by extending the notion of self-similar sets, and determine their Hausdorff dimensions, which gives an extension of Balogh and Rohner 's result. This is carried out by introducing the notions of almost similarity ma…

We construct some examples of special Lagrangian submanifolds and Lagrangian self-similar solutions in almost Calabi-Yau cones over toric Sasaki manifolds. For example, for any integer g>0, we can construct a real 6 dimensional Calabi-Yau cone M_g and a 3 dimensional special Lagrangian submanifold L^1_g in M_g which is…

Study on subgroups' evolution in 3D Lie groups using mean curvature flow.

Lipschitz equivalence of self-similar sets is an important area in the study of fractal geometry. It is known that two dust-like self-similar sets with the same contraction ratios are always Lipschitz equivalent. However, when self-similar sets have touching structures the problem of Lipschitz equivalence becomes much …

Classifies self-similar curve shortening flows in hyperbolic 2-space.

Skeleton is a new notion designed for constructing space-filling curves of self-similar sets. It is shown in [Dai, Rao and Zhang, Space-filling curves of self-similar sets (II): Edge-to-trail substitution rule,https://doi.org/10.1088/1361-6544/ab1275] that for a connected self-similar set, space-filling curves can be c…

We describe all possible self-similar motions of immersed hypersurfaces in Euclidean space under the mean curvature flow and derive the corresponding hypersurface equations. Then we present a new two-parameter family of immersed helicoidal surfaces that rotate/translate with constant velocity under the flow. We look at…

We study those Lagrangian surfaces in complex Euclidean space which are foliated by circles or by straight lines. The former, which we call cyclic, come in three types, each one being described by means of, respectively, a planar curve, a Legendrian curve of the 3-sphere or a Legendrian curve of the anti de Sitter 3-sp…

Paper proves rigidity for self-similar solutions in 3D flows.

The family of translation surfaces $(X_g,ω_g)$ constructed by Arnoux and Yoccoz from self-similar interval exchange maps encompasses one example from each genus $g$ greater than or equal to $3$. We triangulate these surfaces and deduce general properties they share. The surfaces $(X_g,ω_g)$ converge to a surface $(X_\i…

Study finds solutions to flows by negative curvature powers.

In this letter, two explicit self-similar solutions to a graph representation of time-like extremal hypersurfaces in Minkowski spacetime $\mathbb{R}^{1+3}$ are given. Meanwhile, there is an untable eigenvalue in the linearized time-like extremal hypersurfaces equation around two explicit self-similar solutions.

We obtain two in a sense dual to each other results: First, that the capacity dimension of every compact, locally self-similar metric space coincides with the topological dimension, and second, that the asymptotic dimension of a metric space, which is asymptotically similar to its compact subspace coincides with the to…

We develop a local theory for the construction of singular spacetimes in all spacetime dimensions which become asymptotically self-similar as the singularity is approached. The techniques developed also allow us to construct and classify exact self-similar solutions which correspond to the formal asymptotic expansions …

The study proves uniqueness and symmetry of self-similar solutions in warped product spaces.

In [9] Kaimanovich introduced the concept of augmented tree on the symbolic space of a self-similar set. It is hyperbolic in the sense of Gromov, and it was shown in [13] that under the open set condition, a self-similar set can be identified with the hyperbolic boundary of the tree. In the paper, we investigate in det…

We confirm a well-known conjecture that the round sphere is the only compact, embedded self-similar shrinking solution to the mean curvature flow with genus $0$. More generally, we show that the only properly embedded self-similar shrinkers in $\mathbb{R}^3$ with vanishing intersection form are the sphere, the cylinder…

In this paper, we study two classes of planar self-similar fractals $T_\varepsilon$ with a shifting parameter $\varepsilon$. The first one is a class of self-similar tiles by shifting $x$-coordinates of some digits. We give a detailed discussion on the disk-likeness ({\it i.e., the property of being a topological disk}…

In this paper, we consider affine self-similar solutions for the affine curve shortening flow in the Euclidean plane. We obtain the equations of all affine self-similar solutions up to affine transformations and solve the equations or give descriptions of the solutions for the degenerate case. Some new special solution…

We consider the heat flow of corotational harmonic maps from $\mathbb R^3$ to the three-sphere and prove the nonlinear asymptotic stability of a particular self-similar shrinker that is not known in closed form. Our method provides a novel, systematic, robust, and constructive approach to the stability analysis of self…

This article gives an alternative approach to the self-shrinking and self-expanding solutions of the curve shortening flow, which are related to singularity formation of the mean curvature flow. The motivation for the self-similar solutions arises from natural area preserving rescaling. Further we describe the self-sim…
