Convexity theorems of translators play fundamental roles in the classification of them. Spruck and Xiao proved any two dimensional mean convex translator is actually convex. Spruck and I proved a similar convex theorem for higher dimensional translators,​ namely the 2-convex translating solitons are actually convex. Our theorem implies 2-convex translating solitons have to be the bowl soliton. Our second theorem regards the solutions of the Dirichlet problem for translators in a bounded convex domain . We proved the solutions will be convex under appropriate conditions. This theorem implies the existence of n-2 family of locally strictly convex translators in higher dimension. In the end, we will show that our method could be used to establish a convexity theorem for constant mean curvature graph equation. <WRAP box 80%> **//​Abstract//​**:​I will be talking about the translating solitons (translators) in the mean curvature flow.

They describe the evolution of a quantum system subject to a repeated indirect measurement. For a given set of matrices $A$ and a unit vector $x$, a probability of a sequence of matrices $V_1, V_2, \dots , V_n$, $Vj \in A$ is proportional to $||V_n \dots V_1x||^2$. The Markov process is given by $x_n \sim V_n \dots V_1 x$. In this talk, I will review the basic properties of this process, in particular, conditions that guarantee the uniqueness of the stationary measure. Then I will discuss how the measure and the process change if the underlying set of matrices A changes. <WRAP box 80%> **//​Abstract//​**: ​ Quantum trajectories are certain Markov processes on a complex projective space.
