We revisit the well-known Curve Shortening Flow for immersed curves in the $d$-dimensional Euclidean space. We exploit a fundamental structure of the problem to derive a new global construction of a solution, that is, a construction that is…
In this paper we introduce a geometric quantity, the $r$-multiplicity, that controls the length of a smooth curve as it evolves by curve shortening flow. The length estimates we obtain are used to prove results about the level set flow in…
In 1994 Velazquez constructed a smooth \(O(4)\times O(4)\) invariant Mean Curvature Flow that forms a type-II singularity at the origin in space-time. Stolarski very recently showed that the mean curvature on this solution is uniformly…
Mass calculations carried out by Strutinsky's shell correction method are based on the notion of smooth single particle level density. The smoothing procedure is always performed using curvature correction. In the presence of curvature…

Projection stabilisation applied to general Lagrange multiplier finite element methods is introduced and analysed in an abstract framework. We then consider some applications of the stabilised methods: (i) the weak imposition of boundary…
We study the mean curvature flow of hypersurfaces in $\R^{n+1}$, with initial surfaces sufficiently close to the standard $n$-dimensional sphere. The closeness is in the Sobolev norm with the index greater than $\frac{n}{2}+1$ and therefore…

We propose a new parametrization of 2D turbulence based on generalized thermodynamics and Brownian theory. Explicit relaxation equations are obtained that should be easily implementable in numerical simulations for three typical types of…
We consider a sharp interface formulation for the multi-phase Mullins-Sekerka flow. The flow is characterized by a network of curves evolving such that the total surface energy of the curves is reduced, while the areas of the enclosed…
We first give a complete linearized stability analysis around stationary solutions of the Mullins-Sekerka flow with $90^\circ$ contact angle in two space dimensions. The stationary solutions include flat interfaces, as well as arcs of…
A nonlocal curvature flow is introduced to evolve locally convex curves in the plane. It is proved that this flow with any initial locally convex curve has a global solution, keeping the local convexity and the elastic energy of the…

In this article we study the anisotropic curve shortening flow for a planar network of three curves with fixed endpoints and which meet in a triple junction. We show that the anisotropic curvature energy fulfills a Lojasiewicz-Simon…
We discuss phenomena of stabilization for direct images of line bundles over projective curves mapping onto the projective line, for maps of sufficiently big degree.
Parametric finite element discretizations of constrained geometric flows must simultaneously address high-order geometric stiffness, mesh degeneration, and nonlinear global constraints. This paper develops a stabilized dual-SAV (scalar…
A general purely crystalline mean curvature flow equation with a nonuniform driving force term is considered. The unique existence of a level set flow is established when the driving force term is continuous and spatially Lipschitz…
