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.

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.

Similar Flows

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}.
