In this paper, we study the deformation of the 2 dimensional convex surfaces in $\R^{3}$ whose speed at a point on the surface is proportional to $\alpha$-power of positive part of Gauss Curvature. First, for 1/2<\alpha\leq 1$, we show that…

The free elastic flow is the $L^2$-gradient flow for Euler's elastic energy, or equivalently the Willmore flow with translation invariant initial data. In contrast to elastic flows under length penalisation or preservation, it is more…

We study the evolution of a Jordan curve on the plane by curvature flow, also known as curve shortening flow, and by level-set flow, which is a weak formulation of curvature flow. We show that the evolution of the curve depends continuously…
