Weighted Mean Curvature [PDF]

open access: yesSignal Processing, 2019
In image processing tasks, spatial priors are essential for robust computations, regularization, algorithmic design and Bayesian inference. In this paper, we introduce weighted mean curvature (WMC) as a novel image prior and present an efficient ...

Mean Curvature Skeletons [PDF]

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, 2012
AbstractInspired by recent developments in contraction‐based curve skeleton extraction, we formulate the skeletonization problem via mean curvature flow (MCF). While the classical application of MCF is surface fairing, we take advantage of its area‐minimizing characteristic to drive the curvature flow towards the extreme so as to collapse the input ...

Mean Curvature in the Light of Scalar Curvature [PDF]

open access: yesAnnales de l'Institut Fourier, 2020
We formulate several conjectures on mean convex domains in the Euclidean spaces, as well as in more general spaces with lower bounds on their scalar curvatures, and prove a few theorems motivating these ...

Universality in mean curvature flow neckpinches [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We study noncompact surfaces evolving by mean curvature flow. Without any symmetry assumptions, we prove that any solution that is $C^3$-close at some time to a standard neck will develop a neckpinch singularity in finite time, will become asymptotically

Forced hyperbolic mean curvature flow [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
In this paper, we investigate two hyperbolic flows obtained by adding forcing terms in direction of the position vector to the hyperbolic mean curvature flows in \cite{klw,hdl}.

The mean curvature measure

open access: yesJournal of the European Mathematical Society, 2012
We assign a measure to an upper semicontinuous function which is subharmonic with respect to the mean curvature operator, so that it agrees with the mean curvature of its graph when the function is smooth. We prove that the measure is weakly continuous with respect to almost everywhere convergence.

Maslov, Chern-Weil and Mean Curvature [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
We provide an integral formula for the Maslov index of a pair $(E,F)$ over a surface $\Sigma$, where $E\rightarrow\Sigma$ is a complex vector bundle and $F\subset E_{|\partial\Sigma}$ is a totally real subbundle.

On the Minimization of Total Mean Curvature [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Geometric Analysis, 2015
In this paper we are interested in possible extensions of an inequality due to Minkowski: $\int_{\partialΩ} H\,dA \geq \sqrt{4πA(\partialΩ)}$ valid for any regular open set $Ω\subset\mathbb{R}^3$, where $H$ denotes the scalar mean curvature and $A$ the area.

Gyroids of Constant Mean Curvature [PDF]

open access: yesExperimental Mathematics, 1997
We use Brakke's Surface Evolver to deform a triply periodic minimal surface, the gyroid, into a continuous family of constant mean curvature surfaces with the same symmetry. We discuss stability and bifurcation problems for these surfaces.
