Abstract
We assume now that we are in the type II singularity case \( \mathop {\lim \sup }\limits_{t \to T} \,\mathop {\max }\limits_{p \in M} \left| {{\rm A}\left( {p,t} \right)} \right|\sqrt {T - t} = + \infty \) for the mean curvature flow of a compact hypersurface \(\varphi : M \times [0, T) \rightarrow \mathbb{R}^{n+1}\) in its maximal interval of existence.
