We prove that the flow exists for all time and converges smoothly to the unique, strictly convex solution of a Monge-Amp`ere type equation. Our argument provides a parabolic proof in the smooth category for the existence of solutions to the Dual Orlicz-Minkowski problem introduced by Zhu, Xing and Ye.Other curvature flowsGauss curvature flowAnisotropic & nonlocal flowsLong-time existence & convergence https://neckpinch.com/papers/1907.03649/arxiv:1907.03649Mon, 08 Jul 2019 00:00:00 GMTLi Chen, Qiang Tu, Ni Xiang — We study the motion of smooth, closed, strictly convex hypersurfaces in Rn+1 expanding in the direction of their normal vector field with speed depending on the k-th elementary symmetric polynomial of the principal radii of curvature. As an application, we gives a unifed fow approach to Lp-Christoffel-Minkowski problem for p > 1.Other curvature flowsGauss curvature flow https://neckpinch.com/papers/1804.10864/arxiv:1804.10864Sun, 29 Apr 2018 00:00:00 GMTLi Chen, Dan-Dan Hu, Jing Mao, Ni Xiang — In this paper, for the Lorentz manifold M²×ℝ, with M² a 2-dimensional complete surface with nonnegative Gaussian curvature, we investigate its space-like graphs over compact strictly convex domains in M², which are evolving by the non-parametric mean curvature flow with prescribed contact angle boundary condition, and show that solutions converge to ones moving only by translation.Mean curvature flowSelf-shrinkers & translatorsBoundaries & non-compactFree boundary & capillary https://neckpinch.com/papers/1802.05413/arxiv:1802.05413Thu, 15 Feb 2018 00:00:00 GMTLi Chen, Ni Xiang — We consider strictly convex hypersurfaces with the boundary which meets a strictly convex cone perpendicularly. We prove that if these hypersurfaces expand inside this cone, driven by the power of the Gauss curvature, then the evolution exists for all the time and the evolving hypersurfaces converge smoothly to a piece of round sphere after rescaling.Other curvature flowsGauss curvature flowFree boundary & capillaryLong-time existence & convergence https://neckpinch.com/papers/1705.04865/arxiv:1705.04865Sat, 13 May 2017 00:00:00 GMTLi Chen, Jing Mao, Ni Xiang, Chi Xu — Given a convex cone in the prescribed warped product, we consider hypersurfaces with boundary which are star-shaped with respect to the center of the cone and which meet the cone perpendicularly. If those hypersurfaces inside the cone evolve along the inverse mean curvature flow, then, by using the convexity of the cone, we can prove that this evolution exists for all the time and the evolving hypersurfaces converge smoothly to a piece of round sphere as time tends to infinity.Mean curvature flowOther curvature flowsInverse mean curvature flowLong-time existence & convergenceRotational symmetry & warped products
