First, we prove that every complete properly immersed translator has at least linear volume growth. Then, by using Huisken's monotonicity formula, we compute the entropy of the grim reaper and the bowl solitons. We also give a curvature estimate for translators in R³ with small entropy. Finally, we estimate the spectrum of the stability operator L for translators and give a rigidity result of L-stable translators.Mean curvature flowSelf-shrinkers & translatorsStability & uniquenessEigenvalues & spectrum https://neckpinch.com/papers/1603.09435/arxiv:1603.09435Thu, 31 Mar 2016 00:00:00 GMTQiang Guang, Jonathan J. Zhu — Self-shrinkers model singularities of the mean curvature flow; they are defined as the special solutions that contract homothetically under the flow. Colding-Ilmanen-Minicozzi showed that cylindrical self-shrinkers are rigid in a strong sense - that is, any self-shrinker that is mean convex with uniformly bounded curvature on a large, but compact, set must be a round cylinder. Using this result, Colding and Minicozzi were able to establish uniqueness of blowups at cylindrical singularities, and provide a detailed description of the singular set of generic mean curvature flows. In this paper, we show that the bounded curvature assumption is unnecessary for the rigidity of the cylinder if either n is at most 6, or if the mean curvature is bounded below by a positive constant. These results follow from curvature estimates that we prove for strictly mean convex self-shrinkers. We also obtain a rigidity theorem in all dimensions for graphical self-shrinkers, and curvature estimates for translators of the mean curvature flow.Mean curvature flowSelf-shrinkers & translatorsSingularitiesStability & uniqueness
