The curve shortening flow with density of a spherical curve in codimension two

In the present paper we carry out a systematic study about the flow of a spherical curve by the mean curvature flow with density in a 3-dimensional rotationally symmetric space with density $(M^3_w,\:g_w,\:ξ)$ where the density $ξ$ decomposes as sum of a radial part $φ$ and an angular part $ψ$. We analyse how either the parabolicity or the hyperbolicity of $(M^3_w,\:g_w)$ condition the behaviour of the flow when the solution goes to infinity.

Type I singularities in the curve shortening flow associated to a density

We define Type I singularities for the mean curvature flow associated to a density $ψ$ ($ψ$MCF) and describe the blow-up at singular time of these singularities. Special attention is paid to the case where the singularity come from the part of the $ψ$-curvature due to the density. We describe a family of curves whose evolution under $ψ$MCF (in a Riemannian surface of non-negative curvature with a density which is singular at a geodesic of the surface) produces only type I singularities and study the limits of their blow-ups.

The curve shortening problem associated to a density

In $\mathbb{R}^n$ with a density $e^ψ$, we study the mean curvature flow associated to the density ($ψ$-mean curvature flow or $ψ$MCF) of a hypersurface. The main results concern with the description of the evolution under $ψ$MCF of a closed embedded curve in the plane with a radial density, and with a statement of subconvergence to a $ψ$-minimal closed curve in a surface under some general circumstances.
