Generalized inverse mean curvature flows in spacetime
Motivated by the conjectured Penrose inequality and by the work of Hawking, Geroch, Huisken and Ilmanen in the null and the Riemannian case, we examine necessary conditions on flows of two-surfaces in spacetime under which the Hawking quasilocal mass is monotone. We focus on a subclass of such flows which we call uniformly expanding, which can be considered for null as well as for spacelike dir...
متن کاملNeckpinch Singularities in Fractional Mean Curvature Flows
In this paper we consider the evolution of sets by a fractional mean curvature flow. Our main result states that for any dimension n > 2, there exists an embedded surface in R evolving by fractional mean curvature flow, which developes a singularity before it can shrink to a point. When n > 3 this result generalizes the analogue result of Grayson [18] for the classical mean curvature flow. Inte...
متن کاملMean Curvature Flows in Higher Codimension
The mean curvature flow is an evolution process under which a sub-manifold deforms in the direction of its mean curvature vector. The hypersurface case has been much studied since the eighties. Recently, several theorems on regularity, global existence and convergence of the flow in various ambient spaces and codimensions were proved. We shall explain the results obtained as well as the techniq...
متن کاملGeneralized Mean Curvature Flow in Carnot Groups
In this paper we study the generalized mean curvature flow of sets in the sub-Riemannian geometry of Carnot groups. We extend to our context the level sets method and the weak (viscosity) solutions introduced in the Euclidean setting in [29] and [14]. We establish two special cases of the comparison principle, existence, uniqueness and basic geometric properties of the flow.
متن کاملContour Parametrization via Anisotropic Mean Curvature Flows
We present a new implementation of anisotropic mean curvature flow for contour recognition. Our procedure couples the mean curvature flow of planar closed smooth curves, with an external field from a potential of point-wise charges. This coupling constrains the motion when the curve matches a picture placed as background. We include a stability criteria for our numerical approximation.
