A New Method of Constructing Brakke's Motion cover

The paper entitled "Convergence of the Allen-Cahn equation to Brakke's motion by mean curvature" by T Ilmanen constructs Brakke's motion from Allen-Cahn equation, which is one of the measure theoretic approaches to motion by mean curvature.

This book first proposes a new idea that involves a new equation of the Allen-Cahn type to construct Brakke's motion; secondly explaining how to construct it through Ilmanen's approach as easily as possible.


Contents:
  • Introduction
  • Mean Curvature Flow
  • Approximation of Mean Curvature Flow
  • New Partial Differential Equations of Allen-Cahn Type
  • Ilmanen's Approach to Construct Brakke's Motion
  • Appendices:
    • Preparation on ODE and PDE
    • Background on the Geometric Measure Theory

Readership: Researchers in calculus of variations and optimal control, partial differential equations, ordinary differential equations, integral equations, differential geometry.
