A Characterization of the Singular Time of the Mean Curvature Flow

Abstract

In this note we investigate the behaviour at finite-time singularities of the mean curvature flow of compact Riemannian submanifolds Mmt (Nm+n, h). We show that they are characterized by the blow-up of a trace A = H · II of the square of the second fundamental form.
