Singularities and surgery in geometric evolution equations

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

The analysis of geometric evolution equations is a very active area of mathematical research internationally. The applications of such systems to physical problems such as crystal growth and flame propagation are also of great interest in the broader scientific community. The proposed research addresses questions central to the understanding of curvature flows. The project will yield internationally significant results in theoretical mathematics, with applications in physics, engineering and image processing. These results will enhance Australia's reputation for high quality theoretical mathematical research with real world applications.
