Abstract

We prove two new estimates for the level set flow of mean convex domains in Riemannian manifolds. Our estimates give control – exponential in time – for the infimum of the mean curvature, and the ratio between the norm of the second fundamental form and the mean curvature. In particular, the estimates remove a stumbling block that has been left after the work of White [16,17,20], and Haslhofer–Kleiner [9], and thus allow us to extend the structure theory for mean convex level set flow to general ambient manifolds of arbitrary dimension.
