We define a notion of mean curvature flow with surgery for two-dimensional surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$ with positive mean curvature. Our construction relies on the earlier work of Huisken and Sinestrari in the higher dimensional case. One of…
Huisken and Sinestrari have recently defined a surgery process for mean curvature flow when the initial data is a two-convex hypersurface. The process depends on a parameter H. Its role is to initiate a surgery when the maximum of the mean…
An algorithm is proposed for generalized mean curvature flow of closed two-dimensional surfaces, which include inverse mean curvature flow, powers of mean and inverse mean curvature flow, etc. Error estimates are proven for semi- and full…
Optimal-order uniform-in-time $H^1$-norm error estimates are given for semi- and full discretizations of mean curvature flow of surfaces in arbitrarily high codimension. The proposed and studied numerical method is based on a parabolic…
An evolving surface finite element discretisation is analysed for the evolution of a closed two-dimensional surface governed by a system coupling a generalised forced mean curvature flow and a reaction--diffusion process on the surface,…
We give a new proof for the existence of mean curvature flow with surgery of 2-convex hypersurfaces in $R^N$, as announced in arXiv:1304.0926. Our proof works for all $N \geq 3$, including mean convex surfaces in $R^3$. We also derive a…
This paper presents a method for computing two-dimensional constant mean curvature surfaces. The method in question uses the variational aspect of the problem to implement an efficient algorithm. In principle it is a flow like method in…
A proof of convergence is given for semi- and full discretizations of mean curvature flow of closed two-dimensional surfaces. The numerical method proposed and studied here combines evolving finite elements, whose nodes determine the…
We prove a monotonicity formula for mean curvature flow with surgery. This formula differs from Huisken's monotonicity formula by an extra term involving the mean curvature. As a consequence, we show that a surgically modified flow which is…
We establish convergence results for a spatial semidiscretization of Mean Curvature Flow (MCF) for surfaces with fixed boundaries. Our analysis is based on Huisken's evolution equations for the mean curvature and the normal vector, enabling…
The evolution of a closed two-dimensional surface driven by both mean curvature flow and a reaction--diffusion process on the surface is formulated into a system, which couples the velocity law not only to the surface partial differential…
Error estimates are proved for an evolving surface finite element semi-discretization for anisotropic mean curvature flow of closed surfaces. For the geometric surface flow, a system coupling the anisotropic evolution law to parabolic…
In the last 15 years, White and Huisken-Sinestrari developed a far-reaching structure theory for the mean curvature flow of mean convex hypersurfaces. Their papers provide a package of estimates and structural results that yield a precise…
We provide a mean curvature flow method for numerical cosmology and test it on cases of inhomogenous inflation. The results show (in a proof of concept way) that the method can handle even large inhomogeneities that result from different…
The paper addresses the numerical approximation of two variants of hyperbolic mean curvature flow of surfaces in $\mathbb R^3$. For each evolution law we propose both a finite element method, as well as a finite difference scheme in the…
In this paper we investigate the numerical approximation of a variant of the mean curvature flow. We consider the evolution of hypersurfaces with normal speed given by $H^k$, $k \ge 1$, where $H$ denotes the mean curvature. We use a level…
We construct a mean curvature flow with surgery for submanifolds of arbitrary codimension. The theory applies to closed submanifolds satisfying a natural quadratic pinching condition, which serves as the high-codimension analogue of…
In this paper we are dealing with mean curvature flow with surgeries of two-convex hypersurfaces. The main focus is to expand on the discussion in Section $3$ of Mean Curvature Flow with Surgeries of Two-Convex Hypersurfaces by Huisken and…
Motion by weighted mean curvature is a geometric evolution law for surfaces and represents steepest descent with respect to anisotropic surface energy. It has been proposed that this motion could be computed numerically by using a…
Bence-Merriman-Osher algorithm computes numerically mean curvature flow via solutions of heat equation iteratively initialized at the end of each short time interval. Inspired by the convergence proof of Evans of this algorithm where he…
