Abstract
We consider the 2D stochastic Ising model evolving according to the Glauber dynamics at zero temperature. We compute the initial drift for droplets which are suitable approximations of smooth domains. A specific spatial average of the derivative at time~0 of the volume variation of a droplet close to a boundary point is equal to its curvature multiplied by a direction dependent coefficient. We compute the explicit value of this coefficient.
