The constant-length second fundamental form conjecture for self-shrinkers
The constant-length second fundamental form conjecture for self-shrinkers
Let be a smooth, complete, embedded self-shrinker, meaning that its mean curvature satisfies
Assume that has polynomial volume growth and that the squared norm of its second fundamental form is constant. Constant-length second fundamental form conjecture. Then is a generalized cylinder.
This conjecture concerns the classification of self-shrinkers under a natural curvature constraint. It is solved: in dimension , corresponding to self-shrinkers in , Ding and Xin proved the statement; the source presents a new proof of that result and establishes a gap theorem in all dimensions.
