We study graphical mean curvature flow of complete solutions defined on subsets of Euclidean space. We obtain smooth long time existence. The projections of the evolving graphs also solve mean curvature flow. Hence this approach allows to…
In this paper we develop some combinatorial models for continuous spaces. In this spirit we study the approximations of continuous spaces by graphs, molecular spaces and coordinate matrices. We define the dimension on a discrete space by…
In this article we give a criterion for the existence of a metric of curvature $1$ on a $2$-sphere with $n$ conical singularities of prescribed angles $2\pi\vartheta_1,\dots,2\pi\vartheta_n$ and non-coaxial holonomy. Such a necessary and…
We prove that a properly embedded annular end of a surface in $\mathbb H^2\times\mathbb R$ with constant mean curvature $0<H\leq \frac{1}{2}$ can not be contained in any horizontal slab. Moreover, we show that a properly embedded surface…
The aim of this paper is to generalize the work of B. Buet and M. Rumpf on some definition of the approximate mean curvature vector for varifolds, and its associated mean curvature motions for points clouds. We propose a generalization of…
The combination of words ``discrete curvature'' is only an apparent contradiction. In this survey we describe curvature notions associated with polygons, polyhedral surfaces, and with abstract polyhedral manifolds. Several theorems about…
In this paper we present algorithms for computing the topology of planar and space rational curves defined by a parametrization. The algorithms given here work directly with the parametrization of the curve, and do not require to compute or…
Based on two classical notions of curvature for curves in general metric spaces, namely the Menger and Haantjes curvatures, we introduce new definitions of sectional, Ricci and scalar curvature for networks and their higher dimensional…
A classical result of A.D. Alexandrov states that a connected compact smooth $n-$dimensional manifold without boundary, embedded in $\Bbb R^{n+1}$, and such that its mean curvature is constant, is a sphere. Here we study the problem of…
In this paper we are dealing with mean curvature flow with surgeries of two-convex hypersurfaces. The main focus is to expand on the discussion in Section $3$ of Mean Curvature Flow with Surgeries of Two-Convex Hypersurfaces by Huisken and…
We are interested in the impact of entropies on the geometry of a hypersurface of a Riemannian manifold. In fact, we will be able to compare the volume entropy of a hypersurface with that of the ambient manifold, provided some geometric…
The Descartes circle theorem states that if four circles are mutually tangent with disjoint intersion, then their curvatures (or "bends) b_j = 1/r_j satisfy the relation (b_1 + b_2 + b_3 + b_4)^2 = 2(b_1^2 + b_2^2 + b_3^2 + b_4^2). We show…
In this paper, we consider a regular curve on an oriented surface in Euclidean 3-space with the Darboux frame $\{\mathsf{T},\mathsf{V},\mathsf{U}\}$ along the curve, where $\mathsf{T}$ is the unit tangent vector field of the curve,…
We first give a general introduction to the mean curvature flow, and then discuss fundamental results established over the last 10 years that yield a precise theory for the flow through singularities in $\mathbb{R}^3$. With the aim of…
Spatial curvature is one of the fundamental cosmological parameters that is routinely constrained from observations. The forward modelling of observations, in particular of large-scale structure, often relies on large cosmological…
Given $ n \geq 2 $ and $ k \in \{2, \ldots , n\} $, we study the asymptotic behaviour of sequences of bounded $C^2$-domains of finite total curvature in $ \mathbb{R}^{n+1} $ converging in volume and perimeter, and with the $ k $-th mean…
We prove new results on existence of solutions for the prescribed gaussian curvature problem on the euclidean sphere S^2. Those results are achieved by relating this problem with the holomorphic triples theory on Riemann surfaces. We think…
We establish necessary conditions for a regular curve to lie on a circular cylinder in terms of its curvature $\kappa$ and torsion $\tau$. By identifying a fundamental function $\psi = \sin^2 \alpha$, representing the squared sine of the…
In this paper, we introduce a new generalized derivative, which we term the specular derivative. We establish the Quasi-Rolles' Theorem, the Quasi-Mean Value Theorem, and the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus in light of the specular…
Let $ S $ be a hyperbolic surface. We investigate the topology of the space of all curves on $ S $ which start and end at given points in given directions, and whose curvatures are constrained to lie in a given interval $…
