Abstract: Inspired by the idea of Colding-Minicozzi in [CM1], we define (mean curvature flow) entropy for submanifolds in a general ambient Riemannian manifold. In particular, this entropy is equivalent to area growth of a closed submanifold in a closed ambient manifold with non-negative Ricci curvature. Moreover, this entropy is monotone along the mean curvature flow in a closed Riemannian manifold with non-negative sectional curvatures and parallel Ricci curvature. As an application, we show the partial regularity of the limit of mean curvature flow of surfaces in a three dimensional Riemannian manifold with non-negative sectional curvatures and parallel Ricci curvature.
