On Brakke’s mean curvature flow

Sugaku Expositions, 2022
The article represents an excellent exposition of a fascinating, resurgent field of research, by one of the main researchers in the domain. It starts from the basic physical intuition and motivation, proceeds through essential background material, such as the mean curvature flow, as well as crucial definitions and tools from geometric measure theory ...

Nucleation and mean curvature flow

Communications in Partial Differential Equations, 1998

Stochastic Motion by Mean Curvature

Archive for Rational Mechanics and Analysis, 1998
The author establishes the existence of a continuously time-varying random subset \(K(t)\) of Euclidean space such that its boundary, which is a hypersurface, has normal velocity formally equal to the mean curvature plus a random driving force. This random force is modelled by a stochastic flow of diffeomorphisms, and the sets \(K(t)\) are sets of ...

Interfaces of Prescribed Mean Curvature

1987
Several questions of mathematical and physical interest lead to the consideration of an “energy functional” of the following type: $$F[V] = \text{(weighted area of}\, S) + \int_{v}\, H dv,$$ (*) where S is the surface bounding the region V of n-space and H is a given summable function. In the following, we shall be concerned with a problem of

Motion by mean curvature and nucleation

Comptes Rendus de l'Académie des Sciences - Series I - Mathematics, 1997
Summary: A model is proposed to represent mean curvature flow (with forcing term), as well as nucleation and other discontinuities in set evolution. A weak formulation in the framework of BV-spaces is written in terms of the characteristic function of the evolving set. This problem has at least one solution.

Concentrated Curvature for Mean Curvature Estimation

2010
We present a mathematical result that allows computing the discrete mean curvature of a polygonal surface from the so-called concentrated curvature generally used for Gaussian curvature estimation. Our result adds important value to concentrated curvature as a geometric and metric tool to study accurately the morphology of a surface.

Hypersurfaces of Constant Mean Curvature

1989
I want to discuss some aspects of the theory of hypersurfaces of constant mean curvature H. The subject is intimately related to the theory of minimal hypersurfaces which corresponds to the case H = 0. There are, however, some striking differences between the two cases, and this can already be made clear in the simplest situation of surfaces in the ...

Boundaries of prescribed mean curvature

1993
The author refers to the study of the functional \[ {\mathcal J}_ H(X)= | \partial X|(\Omega)+ \int_ \Omega \phi_ X(x) H(x) dx, \] where \(\Omega\) is an open subset of \(\mathbb{R}^ n\) \((n\geq 2)\), \(H\in L'(\Omega)\), \(\phi_ X\) is the characteristic function of the measurable set \(X\subset \mathbb{R}^ n\) and \(|\partial X|(\Omega)\) is the ...
