Abstract: | We consider the motion of hypersurfaces in Riemannian manifolds by their curvature vectors. We show that the Harnack quadratic
is an affine second fundamental form of the space-time track of the hypersurface. Given a solution to the Ricci flow, we show
that with respect to an appropriate metric on space-time, the space-slices evolve by mean curvature flow. This enables us
to identify the Harnack quadratic for the mean curvature flow with the trace Harnack quadratic for the Ricci flow. |
