We also generalize the recent existence result of Gao, Ma, Wang and Weng to non-Euclidean settings under suitable bounds on convexity of Ω and Ricci curvature in Ω.Mean curvature flowSelf-shrinkers & translatorsFree boundary & capillary https://neckpinch.com/papers/2007.02989/arxiv:2007.02989Mon, 06 Jul 2020 00:00:00 GMTJean-Baptiste Casteras, Esko Heinonen, Ilkka Holopainen, Jorge H. de Lira — We prove existence results for entire graphical translators of the mean curvature flow (the so-called bowl solitons) on Cartan-Hadamard manifolds. We show that the asymptotic behaviour of entire solitons depends heavily on the curvature of the manifold, and that there exist also bounded solutions if the curvature goes to minus infinity fast enough. Moreover, it is even possible to solve the asymptotic Dirichlet problem under certain conditions.Mean curvature flowSelf-shrinkers & translators https://neckpinch.com/papers/1605.01935/arxiv:1605.01935Fri, 06 May 2016 00:00:00 GMTJean-Baptiste Casteras, Esko Heinonen, Ilkka Holopainen — We study the asymptotic Dirichlet problem for f-minimal graphs in Cartan-Hadamard manifolds M. f-minimal hypersurfaces are natural generalizations of self-shrinkers which play a crucial role in the study of mean curvature flow. In the first part of this paper, we prove the existence of f-minimal graphs with prescribed boundary behavior on a bounded domain Ω⊂ M under suitable assumptions on f and the boundary of Ω. In the second part, we consider the asymptotic Dirichlet problem. Provided that f decays fast enough, we construct solutions to the problem. Our assumption on the decay of f is linked with the sectional curvatures of M. In view of a result of Pigola, Rigoli and Setti, our results are almost sharp.Mean curvature flowSelf-shrinkers & translatorsMinimal & CMC surfaces
