Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Mathematical analysis
  • Geometry
  • Topology

His primary scientific interests are in Mathematical analysis, Mean curvature, Geometry, Curvature and Mean curvature flow. His Mathematical analysis study combines topics in areas such as Tangential developable, Homotopy and Combinatorics. The Combinatorics study combines topics in areas such as Willmore energy, Riemannian manifold, Subsequential limit, Weak topology and Scalar curvature.

Brian White has researched Mean curvature in several fields, including Hypersurface and Boundary. His study in the field of Constant-mean-curvature surface and Minimal surface is also linked to topics like Gaussian and Spacetime. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Stratification and Harmonic map.

His most cited work include:

  • A local regularity theorem for mean curvature flow (202 citations)
  • The structure of branch points in minimal surfaces and in pseudoholomorphic curves (168 citations)
  • THE NATURE OF SINGULARITIES IN MEAN CURVATURE FLOW OF MEAN-CONVEX SETS (141 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His main research concerns Mathematical analysis, Mean curvature flow, Pure mathematics, Minimal surface and Mean curvature. Brian White applies his multidisciplinary studies on Mathematical analysis and Energy in his research. His Mean curvature flow study is focused on Geometry in general.

His Pure mathematics study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Discrete mathematics and Space. His Minimal surface study incorporates themes from Helicoid, Limit and Genus, Combinatorics. The study incorporates disciplines such as Riemannian manifold, Boundary, Compact space and Scalar curvature in addition to Mean curvature.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Mathematical analysis (45.13%)
  • Mean curvature flow (28.32%)
  • Pure mathematics (24.78%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2020)?

  • Mean curvature flow (28.32%)
  • Mathematical analysis (45.13%)
  • Pure mathematics (24.78%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Brian White mainly focuses on Mean curvature flow, Mathematical analysis, Pure mathematics, Surface and Minimal surface. His Mean curvature flow study necessitates a more in-depth grasp of Geometry. His research integrates issues of Boundary, Type and Curvature in his study of Mathematical analysis.

His Pure mathematics research incorporates themes from Conformal map and Metric. His study on Surface also encompasses disciplines like

  • Flow which connect with Mean curvature,
  • Hypersurface that intertwine with fields like Singular point of a curve. His work carried out in the field of Minimal surface brings together such families of science as Bounded function, Subsequential limit, Limit and Genus.

Between 2014 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • On the bumpy metrics theorem for minimal submanifolds (42 citations)
  • Subsequent singularities in mean-convex mean curvature flow (21 citations)
  • Ancient asymptotically cylindrical flows and applications (18 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Mathematical analysis
  • Geometry
  • Topology

Brian White spends much of his time researching Mean curvature flow, Gravitational singularity, Geometry, Pure mathematics and Minimal surface. His work deals with themes such as Discrete mathematics and Surface, which intersect with Mean curvature flow. The subject of his Gravitational singularity research is within the realm of Mathematical analysis.

His work on Flow is typically connected to Order, Cluster and Unit Density as part of general Geometry study, connecting several disciplines of science. His studies deal with areas such as Mean curvature, Sequence, Bounded function and Metric as well as Pure mathematics. His biological study deals with issues like Parameter space, which deal with fields such as Boundary.
