Abstract

Suppose F F is an integrand associated with a uniformly convex C3 \mathscr{C}^{3} -norm, and V V is a n n -dimensional varifold in an open subset of Rn+1 \mathbf{R}^{n+1} such that HnsptV \mathscr{H}^n \llcorner \operatorname{spt} \| V \| is absolutely continuous with respect to V \| V \| and the mean F F -curvature hF(V,) \mathbf{h}_{F}(V, \cdot) is bounded in L\mathbf{L}^\infty . In our previous result arXiv:2507.18357 we prove that sptV \operatorname{spt} \| V \| is C2 \mathscr{C}^{2} -rectifiable and the C1 \mathscr{C}^{1} -regular part M M of sptV \operatorname{spt} \| V \| coincides Hn \mathscr{H}^n almost everywhere with the unit-density stratum of V V . In this paper we prove that hF(V,a)Nor(M,a) \mathbf{h}_{F}(V,a) \in \operatorname{Nor}(M,a) for Hn \mathscr{H}^n a.e.\ aM a \in M and that hF(V,) \mathbf{h}_{F}(V, \cdot) agrees with the approximate mean F F -curvature coming from the C2 \mathscr{C}^{2} -rectifiable covering of M M . These results provide anisotropic extensions of well known theorems in the Euclidean setting by Brakke, Sch\"atzle and Ambrosio-Masnou.
