In this paper, we discuss the total variation bound for the solution of scalar conservation laws with discontinuous flux. We prove the smoothing effect of the equation forcing the $BV_{loc}$ solution near the interface for $L^\infty$…
A coarse grained description of a two phase fluid is used to study the steady state configuration of the interface separating the coexisting phases, and the motion of the contact line at which the interface intersects a solid boundary. The…
We consider the Allen-Cahn equation with nonlinear anisotropic diffusion and derive anisotropic direction-dependent curvature flow under the sharp interface limit. The anisotropic curvature flow was already studied, but its derivation is…
Pure advection of a conservative scalar is relevant to several applications including two-phase flow. Successful numerical schemes must capture the sharp interface between the phases while maintaining a smooth (wrinkle-free) interfacial…
Let $N$ be a complete manifold with bounded geometry, such that $\sec_N\le -\sigma < 0$ for some positive constant $\sigma$. We investigate the mean curvature flow of the graphs of smooth length-decreasing maps $f:\mathbb{R}^m\to N$. In…

In this paper, we consider an expanding flow of closed, smooth, uniformly convex hypersurface in Euclidean \mathbb{R}^{n+1} with speed u^\alpha f^\beta (\alpha, \beta\in\mathbb{R}^1), where u is support function of the hypersurface, f is a…

We discuss the sharp interface limit of a diffuse interface model for a two-phase flow of two partly miscible viscous Newtonian fluids of different densities, when a certain parameter \epsilon>0 related to the interface thickness tends to…
We study a variant of the mean curvature flow for closed, convex hypersurfaces where the normal velocity is a nonhomogeneous function of the principal curvatures. We show that if the initial hypersurface satisfies a certain pinching…
In this paper, we investigate the preservability of the curvature-adaptedness along the mean curvature flow starting from a compact curvature-adapted hypersurface in locally symmetric spaces, where the curvature-adaptedness means that the…
In recent work of Chan-Huang-Lee, it is shown that if a manifold enjoys uniform bounds on (a) the negative part of the scalar curvature, (b) the local entropy, and (c) volume ratios up to a fixed scale, then there exists a Ricci flow for…
We consider a compact, star-shaped, mean convex hypersurface $\Sigma^2\subset \mathbb{R}^3$. We prove that in some cases the flow exists until it shrinks to a point in a spherical manner, which is very typical for convex surfaces as well…
The Navier boundary condition for velocity slip on flat surfaces, when expressed in tensor form, is readily extended to surfaces of any shape. We test this assertion using molecular dynamics simulations of flow in channels with flat and…
In this paper, we prove the long time regularity of the interface in the $p$-Gauss curvature flow with flat side in all dimensions for $p>\frac1n$. Here the interface is the boundary of the flat part in the flow. In dimension $2$, this…
In this paper, we prove the existence of mean curvature flow with surgery for mean-convex surfaces with free boundary. To do so, we implement our recent new approach for constructing flows with surgery without a prior estimates in the free…
In this paper, we first investigate the flow of convex surfaces in the space form $\mathbb{R}^3(\kappa)~(\kappa=0,1,-1)$ expanding by $F^{-\alpha}$, where $F$ is a smooth, symmetric, increasing and homogeneous of degree one function of the…
In this paper, we consider the contracting curvature flow of smooth closed surfaces in $3$-dimensional hyperbolic space and in $3$-dimensional sphere. In the hyperbolic case, we show that if the initial surface $M_0$ has positive scalar…
The free elastic flow that begins at any curve exists for all time. If the initial curve is an $\omega$-fold covered circle (``$\omega$-circle'') the solution expands self-similarly. Very recently, Miura and the second author showed that…
We show convergence of solutions of a convective Allen-Cahn equation for a given smooth and divergence free velocity field to a transport equation for an evolving interface in the case when the thickness of the diffuse interface tends to…
