We analyze a gradient flow of closed planar curves minimizing the anisoperimetric ratio. For such a flow the normal velocity is a function of the anisotropic curvature and it also depends on the total interfacial energy and enclosed area of…
In this paper we study a gradient flow approach to the problem of quantization of measures in one dimension. By embedding our problem in $L^2$, we find a continuous version of it that corresponds to the limit as the number of particles…
We consider the evolution of hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ with normal velocity given by a positive power of the mean curvature. The hypersurfaces under consideration are assumed to be strictly mean convex (positive mean curvature),…

We prove the convergence of a particle method for the approximation of diffusive gradient flows in one dimension. This method relies on the discretisation of the energy via non-overlapping balls centred at the particles and preserves the…

We study the Allen-Cahn equation with respect to a transport term in a bounded domain. We prove that the limit interface is the mean curvature flow with the transport term, given the condition that the energy is uniformly bounded with…
We study properly immersed ancient solutions of the codimension one mean curvature flow in $n$-dimensional Euclidean space, and classify the convex hulls of the subsets of space reached by any such flow. In particular, it follows that any…

Let $M$ be a complete Riemannian manifold which either is compact or has a pole, and let $\varphi$ be a positive smooth function on $M$. In the warped product $M\times_\varphi\mathbb R$, we study the flow by the mean curvature of a locally…
We prove the convergence of K\"ahler-Ricci flow with some small initial curvature conditions. As applications, we discuss the convergence of K\"ahler-Ricci flow when the complex structure varies on a K\"ahler-Einstein manifold.
We show stability of pairs of Ricci flat metrics and parallel spinor fields with respect to the spinor flow, i.e. we show that the spinor flow with initial conditions near such pairs converges to a critical point with exponential speed.…
We establish a convergence result for the mean curvature flow starting from a totally real submanifold which is "almost minimal" in a precise, quantitative sense. This extends, and makes effective, a result of H. Li for the Lagrangian mean…
A possible evolution of a compact hypersurface in R^n by mean curvature past singularities is defined via the level set flow. In the case that the initial hypersurface has positive mean curvature, we show that the Brakke flow associated to…
We consider mean curvature flow of an initial surface that is the graph of a function over some domain of definition in $R^n$. If the graph is not complete then we impose a constant Dirichlet boundary condition at the boundary of the…
