Abstract

We derive a one to one correspondence between conformal solitons of the mean curvature flow in an ambient space N and minimal submanifolds in a different ambient space Ñ, where Ñ equals ℝ x N equipped with a warped product metric and show that a submanifold in N converges to a conformai soliton under the mean curvature flow in N if and only if its associated submanifold in Ñ converges to a minimal submanifold under a rescaled mean curvature flow in Ñ. We then define a notion of stability for conformai solitons and obtain Lp estimates as well as pointwise estimates for the curvature of stable solitons.
