We construct weak solutions of the anisotropic inverse mean curvature flow (A-IMCF) under very mild assumptions both on the anisotropy (which is simply a norm in $\mathbb R^N$ with no ellip\-ticity nor smoothness requirements, in order to…

We first establish a local gradient estimate for anisotropic $p$-harmonic functions. A key feature of our estimate is that the constant remains bounded as $p\to 1$; consequently, in the limit $p\to 1$, this estimate yields the local…

We derive curvature flows in the Heisenberg group by formal asymptotic expansion of a nonlocal mean-field equation under the anisotropic rescaling of the Heisenberg group. This is motivated by the aim of connecting mechanisms at a…

The evolution by horizontal mean curvature flow (HMCF) is a partial differential equation in a sub-Riemannian setting with application in IT and neurogeometry (see Citti-Franceschiello-Sanguinetti-Sarti, 2016). Unfortunately this equation…
