This paper deals with a generalized length-preserving flow for convex curves in the plane. It is shown that the flow exists globally and deforms convex curves into circles as time tends to infinity.
We provide sufficient conditions on an initial curve for the area preserving and the length preserving curvature flows of curves in a plane, to develop a singularity at some finite time or converge to an $m$-fold circle as time goes to…
