The solid-on-solid model provides a commonly used framework for the description of surfaces. In the last years it has been extended in order to investigate the effect of defects in the bulk on the roughness of the surface. The determination…

We propose a construction of mean curvature flows by approximation for very general initial data, in the spirit of the works of Brakke and of Kim & Tonegawa based on the theory of varifolds. Given a general varifold, we construct by…
