We give asymptotics for the level set equation for mean curvature flow on a convex domain near the point where it attains a maximum. It is known that solutions are not necessarily $C^3,$ and we recover this result and construct non-smooth…

The level-set method is a popular interface tracking method in two-phase flow simulations. An often-cited reason for using it is that the method naturally handles topological changes in the interface, e.g. merging drops, due to the implicit…
