We investigate stability properties of the motion by curvature of planar networks. We prove Lojasiewicz-Simon gradient inequalities for the length functional of planar networks with triple junctions. In particular, such an inequality holds…
We consider motion by anisotropic curvature of a network of three curves immersed in the plane meeting at a triple junction and with the other ends fixed. We show existence, uniqueness and regularity of a maximal geometric solution and we…
We prove that the curvature flow of an embedded planar network of three curves connected through a triple junction, with fixed endpoints on the boundary of a given strictly convex domain, exists smooth until the lengths of the three curves…
We study the evolution of curves with fixed length and clamped boundary conditions moving by the negative $L^2$-gradient flow of the elastic energy. For any initial curve lying merely in the energy space we show existence and parabolic…
In this paper we analyze the motion of a network of three planar curves with a speed proportional to the curvature of the arcs, having perpendicular intersections with the outer boundary and a common intersection at a triple junction. As a…
We investigate the asymptotic stability of the length-penalized elastic flow of curves with boundary points constrained to the $x$-axis in $\mathbb{R}^2$. The main tool in our analysis is the Lojasiewicz--Simon inequality, which is used to…
We analyze a gradient flow of closed planar curves minimizing the anisoperimetric ratio. For such a flow the normal velocity is a function of the anisotropic curvature and it also depends on the total interfacial energy and enclosed area of…
We define the elastic energy of smooth immersed closed curves in $\mathbb{R}^n$ as the sum of the length and the $L^2$-norm of the curvature, with respect to the length measure. We prove that the $L^2$-gradient flow of this energy smoothly…
We consider the motion by curvature of a network of smooth curves with multiple junctions in the plane, that is, the geometric gradient flow associated to the length functional. Such a flow represents the evolution of a two--dimensional…
We provide a long-time existence and sub-convergence result for the elastic flow of a three network in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ under some mild topological assumptions. The evolution is such that the sum of the elastic energies of the three curves…
In this paper we study the $L^2$-gradient flow of the penalized elastic energy on networks of $q$-curves in $\R^{n}$ for $q \geq 3$. Each curve is fixed at one end-point and at the other is joint to the other curves at a movable…
Given a planar crystalline anisotropy, we study the crystalline elastic flow of immersed polygonal curves, possibly also unbounded. Assuming that the segments evolve by parallel translation (as it happens in the standard crystalline…
We consider planar networks of three curves that meet at two junctions with prescribed equal angles, minimizing a combination of the elastic energy and the length functional. We prove existence and regularity of minimizers, and we show some…
We prove three related quantitative results for the relative isoperimetric problem outside a convex body $\Omega$ in the plane: (1) {\L}ojasiewicz estimates and quantitative rigidity for critical points, (2) rates of convergence for the…
The {\L}ojasiewicz inequality characterizes objective-value convergence along gradient flows and, in special cases, yields exponential decay of the cost. However, such results do not directly give rates of convergence in the state. In this…
We study the crystalline curvature flow of planar networks with a single hexagonal anisotropy. After proving the local existence of a classical solution for a rather large class of initial conditions, we classify the homothetically…
In this paper we consider the anisotropic curve shortening flow in the plane in the presence of an ambient force. We consider force fields in which all their derivatives are bounded in the $L^{\infty}$ sense. We prove that closed embedded…
We consider a motion of non-closed planar curves with infinite length. The motion is governed by a steepest descent flow for the geometric functional which consists of the sum of the length functional and the total squared curvature. We…
We consider a second order gradient flow of the p-elastic energy for a planar theta-network of three curves with fixed lengths. We construct a weak solution of the flow by means of an implicit variational scheme. We show long-time existence…
We extend the DeTurck trick from the classical isotropic curve shortening flow to the anisotropic setting. Here the anisotropic energy density is allowed to depend on space, which allows an interpretation in the context of Finsler metrics,…
