Abstract

We derive pointwise curvature estimates for graphical mean curvature flows in higher codimensions for a flat ambient space. To the best of our knowledge, these are the first such estimates without assuming smallness of first derivatives of the defining map. An immediate application is a convergence theorem of the mean curvature flow of the graph of an area decreasing map between flat Riemann surfaces.
