Graphical mean curvature flow with bounded bi-Ricci curvature
Abstract
We consider the graphical mean curvature flow of strictly area decreasing maps f: M→ N, where M is a compact Riemannian manifold of dimension m> 1 and N a complete Riemannian surface of bounded geometry. We prove long-time existence of the flow and that the strictly area decreasing property is preserved, when the bi-Ricci curvature BRic
M of M is bounded from below by the sectional curvature σ
N of N. In addition, we obtain smooth convergence to a minimal map if Ric
M≥ sup { 0 , sup
Nσ
N}. These results significantly improve known results on the graphical mean curvature flow in codimension 2.
