چکیده

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 real data are shown.

A Note on Singular Time of Mean Curvature Flow

We show that mean curvature flow of a compact submanifold in a complete Riemannian manifold cannot form singularity at time infinity if the ambient Riemannian manifold has bounded geometry and satisfies certain curvature and volume growth conditions .

Spacelike hypersurfaces in Riemannian or Lorentzian space forms satisfying L_k(x)=Ax+b

We study connected orientable spacelike hypersurfaces $x:M^{n}rightarrowM_q^{n+1}(c)$, isometrically immersed into the Riemannian or Lorentzian space form of curvature $c=-1,0,1$, and index $q=0,1$, satisfying the condition $~L_kx=Ax+b$,~ where $L_k$ is the $textit{linearized operator}$ of the $(k+1)$-th mean curvature $H_{k+1}$ of the hypersurface for a fixed integer $0leq k

Evolution of the first eigenvalue of buckling problem on Riemannian manifold under Ricci flow

Among the eigenvalue problems of the Laplacian, the biharmonic operator eigenvalue problems are interesting projects because these problems root in physics and geometric analysis. The buckling problem is one of the most important problems in physics, and many studies have been done by the researchers about the solution and the estimate of its eigenvalue. In this paper, first, we obtain the evol...

ACTION OF SEMISIMPLE ISOMERY GROUPS ON SOME RIEMANNIAN MANIFOLDS OF NONPOSITIVE CURVATURE

A manifold with a smooth action of a Lie group G is called G-manifold. In this paper we consider a complete Riemannian manifold M with the action of a closed and connected Lie subgroup G of the isometries. The dimension of the orbit space is called the cohomogeneity of the action. Manifolds having actions of cohomogeneity zero are called homogeneous. A classic theorem about Riemannian manifolds...
