Mean Curvature Flow, Orbits, Moment Maps
Given a Riemannian manifold together with a group of isometries, we discuss MCF of the orbits and some applications: eg, finding minimal orbits. We then specialize to Lagrangian orbits in Kaehler manifolds. In particular, in the Kaehler-Einstein case we find a relation between MCF and moment maps which, for example, proves that the minimal Lagrangian orbits are isolated.
متن کاملGauss Maps of the Mean Curvature Flow
Let F : Σ n × [0, T) → R n+m be a family of compact immersed submanifolds moving by their mean curvature vectors. We show the Gauss maps γ : (Σ n , g t) → G(n, m) form a harmonic heat flow with respect to the time-dependent induced metric g t. This provides a more systematic approach to investigating higher codimension mean curvature flows. A direct consequence is any convex function on G(n, m)...
متن کاملMean Curvature Blowup in Mean Curvature Flow
In this note we establish that finite-time singularities of the mean curvature flow of compact Riemannian submanifolds M t →֒ (N, h) are characterised by the blow up of the mean curvature.
متن کاملMean curvature flow
Mean curvature flow is the negative gradient flow of volume, so any hypersurface flows through hypersurfaces in the direction of steepest descent for volume and eventually becomes extinct in finite time. Before it becomes extinct, topological changes can occur as it goes through singularities. If the hypersurface is in general or generic position, then we explain what singularities can occur un...
متن کاملRiemannian Mean Curvature Flow
In this paper we explicitly derive a level set formulation for mean curvature flow in a Riemannian metric space. This extends the traditional geodesic active contour framework which is based on conformal flows. Curve evolution for image segmentation can be posed as a Riemannian evolution process where the induced metric is related to the local structure tensor. Examples on both synthetic and re...
