We study curve-shortening flow for twisted curves in $\mathbb{R}^3$ (i.e., curves with nowhere vanishing curvature $\kappa$ and torsion $\tau$) and define a notion of torsion-curvature entropy. Using this functional, we show that either the…

We investigate intermittent diffusion using cycle expansions, and show that a truncation based on cycle stability achieves reasonable convergence.

We study the curvature flow of planar nonconvex lens-shaped domains, considered as special symmetric networks with two triple junctions. We show that the evolving domain becomes convex in finite time; then it shrinks homothetically to a…
