Two-ended odd-genus self-shrinker conjecture
Two-ended odd-genus self-shrinker conjecture
For sufficiently large , consider a complete, embedded, noncompact self-shrinker for mean curvature flow, where denotes its genus and the surface is invariant under the dihedral group . Two-ended odd-genus self-shrinker conjecture. For each sufficiently large , there exists such a with two asymptotically conical ends, and these surfaces converge locally to the union of the self-shrinking cylinder and the sphere as . The conjecture is motivated by numerical examples with odd genus and two asymptotically conical ends; it proposes a desingularisation of a self-shrinking cylinder and sphere, and remains open.
