Stability of mean curvature flow solitons in warped product spaces (Q2141394)

The mean curvature flow is an example of a geometric flow of hypersurfaces in a Riemannian manifold, as for example smooth surfaces in 3-dimensional Euclidean space. It plays an important role in several classical problems of geometric measure theory and mathematical physics. Several authors studies the geometry of mean curvature flows, see, e.g., [\textit{L. Mari} et al., J. Math. Anal. Appl. 431, No. 2, 919--934 (2015; Zbl 1326.53080); \textit{S. Montiel}, Indiana Univ. Math. J. 48, No. 2, 711--748 (1999; Zbl 0973.53048); \textit{D. Impera} and \textit{M. Rimoldi}, Geom. Dedicata, 178, 21--47 (2015; Zbl 1334.53059); \textit{G. Colombo} et al., Discrete Contin. Dyn. Syst. S 13, 1957--1991 (2020; Zbl 1440.53105); \textit{X. Cheng} et al., Trans. Am. Math. Soc. 367, No. 6, 4041--4059 (2015; Zbl 1318.53061)]. The main aim in this paper is to study the stability of mean curvature flow solitons in warped product spaces. The authors prove some non-existence statements for solitons as a result of a comparison principle which suits well the structure of the diffusion elliptic operator associated with the weighted measures.
