Regularity of the level set flow

Differential Geometry 2016-06-17 v1 Analysis of PDEs

Abstract

We showed earlier that the level set function of a monotonic advancing front is twice differentiable everywhere with bounded second derivative. We show here that the second derivative is continuous if and only if the flow has a single singular time where it becomes extinct and the singular set consists of a closed C1C^1 manifold with cylindrical singularities.
