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…

If the initial hypersurface of an immortal mean curvature flow is asymptotic to a regular cone whose entropy is small, the flow will become asymptotically self-expanding. Moreover, the expander that gives rise to the limiting flow is…

We consider a mean curvature flow in a cone, that is, a hypersurface in a cone which moves toward the opening with normal velocity equaling to the mean curvature, and the contact angle between the hypersurface and the cone boundary being…

We show that the convex hull of the path of Brownian motion in $n$-dimensions, up to time $1$, is a smooth set. As a consequence, we conclude that a Brownian motion in any dimension almost surely has no cone points for any cone whose dual…

In classical surface theory there are but few known examples of surfaces admitting nontrivial isometric deformations and fewer still non-simply-connected ones. We consider the isometric deformability question for an immersion x: M \to R^3…

The surface texture of materials plays a critical role in wettability, turbulence and transport phenomena. In order to design surfaces for these applications, it is desirable to characterise non-smooth and porous materials by their ability…

It is proved that if a smooth function $u(x)$, $x\in \mathbb{R}^3$, such that $\inf_{s\in S}|u_N(s)|>0$, where $u_N$ is the normal derivative of $u$ on $S$, has a closed smooth surface $S$ of zeros, then the function $u(x)+\epsilon v(x)$…

We study the evolution of compact convex curves in two-dimensional space forms. The normal speed is given by the difference of the weighted inverse curvature with the support function, and in the case where the ambient space is the…

We consider inverse curvature flows in hyperbolic space with starshaped initial hypersurface, driven by positive powers of a homogeneous curvature function. The solutions exist for all time and, after rescaling, converge to a sphere.
