A semi-discrete scheme for horizontal mean curvature flow in the Heisenberg group

A. Cesaroni, M. Novaga, P. Pozzi

The horizontal mean curvature flow is a geometric evolution associated with the horizontal perimeter in sub-Riemannian spaces. In this paper, we introduce a minimizing movement sch…

On an elastic flow for parametrized curves in suitable for numerical purposes

Paola Pozzi

In arXiv:2205.02920 a variant of the classical elastic flow for closed curves in was introduced, that is more suitable for numerical purposes. Here we investigate…

Convergence of a scheme for elastic flow with tangential mesh movement

Paola Pozzi, Björn Stinner

Elastic flow for closed curves can involve significant deformations. Mesh-based approximation schemes require tangentially redistributing vertices for long-time computations. We pr…

Anisotropic curvature flow of immersed networks

Heiko Kroener, Matteo Novaga, Paola Pozzi

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, unique…
