Event description:
I will discuss singular structure that arises in mean
curvature flow of surfaces in three dimensions.
Roughly speaking, the results confirm the naive picture
that the only singularities are neck pinches and components
which collapse to asymptotically round spheres. This
is joint work with Toby Colding.
