We show the consistency of a threshold dynamics type algorithm for the anisotropic motion by fractional mean curvature, in the presence of a time dependent forcing term. Beside the consistency result, we show that convex sets remain convex…
In this note we prove that appropriately scaled threshold dynamics-type algorithms corresponding to the fractional Laplacian of order $\alpha \in (0,2)$ converge to moving fronts. When $\alpha \geqq 1$ the resulting interface moves by…

We study front propagation problems for forced mean curvature flows and their phase field variants that take place in stratified media, i.e., heterogeneous media whose characteristics do not vary in one direction. We consider phase change…
We study the motion of sets by anisotropic curvature under a volume constraint in the plane. We establish the exponential convergence of the area-preserving anisotropic flat flow to a disjoint union of Wulff shapes of equal area, the…
An existence and uniqueness result, up to fattening, for crystalline mean curvature flows with forcing and arbitrary (convex) mobilities, is proven. This is achieved by introducing a new notion of solution to the corresponding level set…
We consider the thresholding scheme, a time discretization for mean curvature flow introduced by Merriman, Bence and Osher. We prove a convergence result in the multi-phase case. The result establishes convergence towards a weak formulation…
We analyze the continuum limit of a thresholding algorithm for motion by mean curvature of one dimensional interfaces in various space-time discrete regimes. The algorithm can be viewed as a time-splitting scheme for the Allen-Cahn equation…
The purpose of this paper is to derive anisotropic mean curvature flow as the limit of the anisotropic Allen-Cahn equation. We rely on distributional solution concepts for both the diffuse and sharp interface models, and prove convergence…
In this paper, we consider the mean curvature flow of convex hypersurfaces in Euclidean spaces with a general forcing term. We show that the flow may shrink to a point in finite time if the forcing term is small, or exist for all times and…
We consider non-linear evolution equations arising from mean-field limits of particle systems on discrete spaces. We investigate a notion of curvature bounds for these dynamics based on convexity of the free energy along interpolations in a…
Given a smooth positive function $F\in C^{\infty}(\mathbb{S}^n)$ such that the square of its positive $1$-homogeneous extension on $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}\setminus \{0\}$ is uniformly convex, the Wulff shape $W_F$ is a smooth uniformly convex…
In the first part of this paper, we develop the theory of anisotropic curvature measures for convex bodies in the Euclidean space. It is proved that any convex body whose boundary anisotropic curvature measure equals a linear combination of…
This paper investigates geometric properties and well-posedness of a mean curvature flow with volume-dependent forcing. With the class of forcing which bounds the volume of the evolving set away from zero and infinity, we show that a strong…
In this paper, we propose a new scheme for anisotropic motion by mean curvature in $\R^d$. The scheme consists of a phase-field approximation of the motion, where the nonlinear diffusive terms in the corresponding anisotropic Allen-Cahn…
We analyze the dynamics of pattern forming fronts which propagate into an unstable state, and whose dynamics is of the pulled type, so that their asymptotic speed is equal to the linear spreading speed v^*. We discuss a method that allows…
We present a general framework which can be used to prove that, in an annealed sense, rescaled spatial stochastic population models converge to generalized propagating fronts. Our work is motivated by recent results of Etheridge, Freeman,…
