Anisotropic and crystalline mean curvature flow of mean-convex sets [PDF]

open access: yesANNALI SCUOLA NORMALE SUPERIORE - CLASSE DI SCIENZE, 2020
We consider a variational scheme for the anisotropic (including crystalline) mean curvature flow of sets with strictly positive anisotropic mean curvature.

Convexity estimates for high codimension mean curvature flow [PDF]

open access: yesMathematische Annalen, 2020
We consider the flow by mean curvature of smooth n -dimensional submanifolds of $${\mathbb {R}}^{n+k}$$ R n + k , $$k \ge 2$$ k ≥ 2 , which are compact and quadratically pinched.

Uniformly Compressing Mean Curvature Flow [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Geometric Analysis, 2018
Michor and Mumford showed that the mean curvature flow is a gradient flow on a Riemannian structure with a degenerate geodesic distance. It is also known to destroy the uniform density of gridpoints on the evolving surfaces. We introduce a related geometric flow which is free of these drawbacks.

Is mean curvature flow a gradient flow?

open access: yes, 2023
It is well-known that the mean curvature flow is a formal gradient flow of the perimeter functional. However, by the work of Michor and Mumford [7,8], the formal Riemannian structure that is compatible with the gradient flow structure induces a degenerate metric on the space of hypersurfaces.

Skew mean curvature flow

open access: yesCommunications in Contemporary Mathematics, 2019
The skew mean curvature flow (SMCF), which origins from the study of fluid dynamics, describes the evolution of a codimension two submanifold along its binormal direction. We study the basic properties of the SMCF and prove the existence of a short-time solution to the initial value problem of the SMCF of compact surfaces in Euclidean space [Formula ...

A survey on Inverse mean curvature flow in ROSSes

open access: yesComplex Manifolds, 2017
In this survey we discuss the evolution by inverse mean curvature flow of star-shaped mean convex hypersurfaces in non-compact rank one symmetric spaces.

APPROXIMATION OF THE ANISOTROPIC MEAN CURVATURE FLOW [PDF]

open access: yesMathematical Models and Methods in Applied Sciences, 2007
In this paper, we provide simple proofs of consistency for two well-known algorithms for mean curvature motion, Almgren–Taylor–Wang's1 variational approach, and Merriman–Bence–Osher's algorithm.29 Our techniques, based on the same notion of strict sub- and superflows, also work in the (smooth) anisotropic case.

Mean Convex Mean Curvature Flow with Free Boundary [PDF]

open access: yesCommunications on Pure and Applied Mathematics, 2021
AbstractIn this paper, we generalize White's regularity and structure theory for mean‐convex mean curvature flow [45, 46, 48] to the setting with free boundary. A major new challenge in the free boundary setting is to derive an a priori bound for the ratio between the norm of the second fundamental form and the mean curvature. We establish such a bound

A nonlinear partial differential equation for the volume preserving mean curvature flow

open access: yesNetworks and Heterogeneous Media, 2013

Ancient solutions in Lagrangian mean curvature flow

open access: yes, 2020
Ancient solutions of Lagrangian mean curvature flow in C^n naturally arise as Type II blow-ups. In this extended note we give structural and classification results for such ancient solutions in terms of their blow-down and, motivated by the Thomas-Yau ...
