In [12], the existence of ideal circle patterns in Euclidean or hyperbolic background geometry under the combinatorial conditions was proved using flow approaches. It remains as an open problem for the spherical case. In this paper, we…

We establish a convergence result for the mean curvature flow starting from a totally real submanifold which is "almost minimal" in a precise, quantitative sense. This extends, and makes effective, a result of H. Li for the Lagrangian mean…

We study area- and length-preserving curvature flows for embedded closed curves on pinched Hadamard surfaces. In the variable-curvature setting, the evolution equations contain additional lower-order terms, so the PDE analysis requires…

We introduce a novel neural representation for maps between 3D shapes based on flow-matching models, which is computationally efficient and supports cross-representation shape matching without large-scale training or data-driven procedures.…

We study Variational Rectified Flow Matching, a framework that enhances classic rectified flow matching by modeling multi-modal velocity vector-fields. At inference time, classic rectified flow matching 'moves' samples from a source…

We show that curvatures in general ambient flow profiles can align shape-asymmetric active particles, revealing a previously overlooked competition with externally applied aligning fields. Focusing on the ubiquitous case of channel flows,…

This article describes the mean curvature flow, some of the discoveries that have been made about it, and some unresolved questions.

We develop a new boundary condition for the weak inverse mean curvature flow, which gives canonical and non-trivial solutions in bounded domains. Roughly speaking, the boundary of the domain serves as an outer obstacle, and the evolving…

Scene graph generation aims to provide a semantic and structural description of an image, denoting the objects (with nodes) and their relationships (with edges). The best performing works to date are based on exploiting the context…

For optimal power flow problems with chance constraints, a particularly effective method is based on a fixed point iteration applied to a sequence of deterministic power flow problems. However, a priori, the convergence of such an approach…

In 1995, Hamilton introduced a Harnack inequality for convex solutions of the mean curvature flow. In this paper we prove an alternative Harnack inequality for curve shortening flow, i.e. one-dimensional mean curvature flow, that does not…

We complete the theoretical framework required for the construction of a Morse homology theory for certain types of forced mean curvature flows. The main result of this paper describes the asymptotic behaviour of these flows as the forcing…

We construct a new example of an immortal mean curvature flow of smooth embedded connected surfaces in $\mathbb R^3$, which converges to a plane with multiplicity $2$ as time approaches infinity.

In this paper we investigate a time dependent family of plane closed Jordan curves evolving in the normal direction with a velocity which is assumed to be a function of the curvature, tangential angle and position vector of a curve. We…

The scarcity of labeled data is a long-standing challenge for many machine learning tasks. We propose our gradient flow method to leverage the existing dataset (i.e., source) to generate new samples that are close to the dataset of interest…

In a previous work, the authors introduced a Lin-Lu-Yau type Ricci curvature for directed graphs referring to the formulation of the Chung Laplacian. The aim of this note is to provide a von Renesse-Sturm type characterization of our lower…

Viscous streaming refers to the rectified, steady flows that emerge when a liquid oscillates around an immersed microfeature, typically a solid body or a bubble. The ability of such features to locally concentrate stresses produces strong…

We present a formulation of flow matching as variational inference, which we refer to as variational flow matching (VFM). Based on this formulation we develop CatFlow, a flow matching method for categorical data. CatFlow is easy to…

We consider a flow by powers of Gauss curvature under the obstruction that the flow cannot penetrate a prescribed region, so called an obstacle. For all dimensions and positive powers, we prove the optimal curvature bounds of solutions and…

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…
