On Surfaces of Prescribed Weighted Mean Curvature
Utilizing a weight matrix we study surfaces of prescribed weighted mean curvature which yield a natural generalisation to critical points of anisotropic surface energies. We first derive a differential equation for the normal of immersions with prescribed weighted mean curvature, generalising a result of Clarenz and von der Mosel. Next we study graphs of prescribed weighted mean curvature, for ...
متن کاملOn Surfaces of Prescribed F-Mean Curvature
Hypersurfaces of prescribed weighted mean curvature, or F -mean curvature, are introduced as critical immersions of anisotropic surface energies, thus generalizing minimal surfaces and surfaces of prescribed mean curvature. We first prove enclosure theorems in R for such surfaces in cylindrical boundary configurations. Then we derive a general second variation formula for the anisotropic surfac...
متن کاملGuida PARAMETRIC SURFACES WITH PRESCRIBED MEAN CURVATURE
This article contains an overview on some old and new problems concerning two-dimensional parametric surfaces in R3 with prescribed mean curvature. Part of this exposition has constituted the subject of a series of lectures held by the first author at the Department of Mathematics of the University of Torino, during the Third Turin Fortnight on Nonlinear Analysis (September 23-28, 2001).
متن کاملFinite Element Approximations and the Dirichlet Problem for Surfaces of Prescribed Mean Curvature
We give a nite element procedure for the Dirichlet Problem corresponding to surfaces of prescribed mean curvature and prove an optimal convergence estimate in the H 1-norm. 1. H-Harmonic Maps The numerical solution of the classical H-Plateau Problem consists of approximating disc-like surfaces with prescribed boundary curve and prescribed mean curvature H. For a detailed discussion of the algor...
متن کاملSurfaces of Bounded Mean Curvature in Riemannian Manifolds
Consider a sequence of closed, orientable surfaces of fixed genus g in a Riemannian manifold M with uniform upper bounds on mean curvature and area. We show that on passing to a subsequence and choosing appropriate parametrisations, the inclusion maps converge in C to a map from a surface of genus g to M . We also show that, on passing to a further subsequence, the distance functions correspond...
