What is... mean curvature flow?

Felix Lubbe will explain what mean curvature flow in higher codimension is.

Abstract: I will motivate and introduce the mean curvature flow of submanifolds inside Riemannian manifolds. Then I will go over some ideas and inspirations for methods used in understanding the flow. Finally I will provide an application in the higher codimensional setting.

"What is...?" is an accessible and non-technical seminar where speakers explain in one (short) lecture some object or theorem that they think is interesting. There will be drinks and snacks during the talk. See the seminar website for more information.
