چکیده

We prove a local existence and uniqueness result of crystalline mean curvature flow starting from a compact convex admissible set in R . This theorem can handle the facet breaking/bending phenomena, and can be generalized to any anisotropic mean curvature flow. The method provides also a generalized geometric evolution starting from any compact convex set, existing up to the extinction time, satisfying a comparison principle, and defining a continuous semigroup in time. We prove that, when the initial set is convex, our evolution coincides with the flat φ-curvature flow in the sense of Almgren-Taylor-Wang. As a by-product, it turns out that the flat φ-curvature flow starting from a compact convex set is unique.

The volume preserving crystalline mean curvature ow of convex sets in R

We prove the existence of a volume preserving crystalline mean curvature at ow starting from a compact convex set C ⊂ R and its convergence, modulo a time-dependent translation, to a Wul shape with the corresponding volume. We also prove that if C satis es an interior ball condition (the ball being the Wul shape), then the evolving convex set satis es a similar condition for some time. To prove...

Singularity Structure in Mean Curvature Flow of Mean Convex Sets

In this note we announce results on the mean curvature flow of mean convex sets in 3-dimensions. Loosely speaking, our results justify the naive picture of mean curvature flow where the only singularities are neck pinches, and components which collapse to asymptotically round spheres. In this note we announce results on the mean curvature flow of mean convex sets; all the statements below have ...

Hyperbolic flow by mean curvature

A hyperbolic flow by mean curvature equation, l t #cv"i, for the evolution of interfaces is studied. Here v, i and l t are the normal velocity, curvature and normal acceleration of the interface. A crystalline algorithm is developed for the motion of closed convex polygonal curves; such curves may exhibit damped oscillations and their shape appears to rotate during the evolutionary process. The...

The volume preserving crystalline mean curvature flow of convex sets in R

We prove the existence of a volume preserving crystalline mean curvature flat flow starting from a compact convex set C ⊂ R and its convergence, modulo a time-dependent translation, to a Wulff shape with the corresponding volume. We also prove that if C satisfies an interior ball condition (the ball being the Wulff shape), then the evolving convex set satisfies a similar condition for some time...

Analytical and Numerical Aspects on Motion of Polygonal Curves with Constant Area Speed

The first purpose of this paper is to propose a formulation of general area-preserving motion of polygonal curves by using a system of ODEs. Solution polygonal curves belong to a prescribed polygonal class, which is similar to admissible class used in the so-called crystalline curvature flow. Actually, if the initial curve is a convex polygon, then our polygonal flow is nothing but the crystall...
