We investigate the evolution of closed strictly convex hypersurfaces in Rn+1, n=3, for contracting normal velocities, including powers of the mean curvature, of the norm of the second fundamental form, and of the Gauss curvature. We prove convergence to a round point for 2-pinched initial hypersurfaces. I…
We study convex entire graphs evolving with normal velocity equal to a positive power of the mean curvature. Under mild assumptions we prove longtime existence.
We consider flows with normal velocities equal to powers strictly larger than one of the Gauss curvature. Under such flows closed strictly convex surfaces converge to points. In his work on the square of the norm of the second fundamental form, Schnürer proposes criteria for selecting quantities that are suitable for p…
We show that strictly convex surfaces contracting with normal velocity equal to |A|^2 shrink to a point in finite time. After appropriate rescaling, they converge to spheres. We indicate how we used a computer to find the main test function.
Left invariant metrics induced by the p-norms of the trace in the matrix algebra are studied on the general lineal group. By means of the Euler-Lagrange equations, existence and uniqueness of extremal paths for the length functional are established, and regularity properties of these extremal paths are obtained. Minimi…
We propose a predictive neural network architecture that can be utilized to update reference velocity models as inputs to the full waveform inversion. Deep learning models are explored to augment velocity model building workflows during processing the 3D seismic volume in salt-prone environments. Specifically, a neural…
We consider geometric flow equations for contracting and expanding normal velocities, including powers of the Gauss curvature, of the mean curvature, and of the norm of the second fundamental form, and ask whether - after appropriate rescaling - closed strictly convex surfaces converge to spheres. To prove this, many a…
A translating soliton is a hypersurface M in Rn+1 such that the family Mt=M−ten+1 is a mean curvature flow, i.e., such that normal component of the velocity at each point is equal to the mean curvature at that point H=en+1⊥. In this paper we obtain a cha…
We discuss some aspects about the computation of kinematic, spectroscopic, Fermi and astrometric relative velocities that are geometrically defined in general relativity. Mainly, we state that kinematic and spectroscopic relative velocities only depend on the 4-velocities of the observer and the test particle, unlike F…
We prove that, in a space-time of dimension n>3 with a velocity field that is shear-free, vorticity-free and acceleration-free, the covariant divergence of the Weyl tensor is zero if the contraction of the Weyl tensor with the velocity is zero. The other way, if the covariant divergence of the Weyl tensor is zero, then…
In this paper, we prove the short-time existence of hyperbolic inverse (mean) curvature flow (with or without the specified forcing term) under the assumption that the initial compact smooth hypersurface of Rn+1 (n⩾2) is mean convex and star-shaped. Several interesting examples and some hyperbol…
We analyze a gradient flow of closed planar curves minimizing the anisoperimetric ratio. For such a flow the normal velocity is a function of the anisotropic curvature and it also depends on the total interfacial energy and enclosed area of the curve. In contrast to the gradient flow for the isoperimetric ratio, we sho…
The determinants of the velocity of money have been examined based on life-cycle hypothesis. The velocity of money can be expressed by reciprocal of the average value of holding time which is defined as interval between participating exchanges for one unit of money. This expression indicates that the velocity is govern…

We consider a mean curvature flow in a cone, that is, a hypersurface in a cone which moves toward the opening with normal velocity equaling to the mean curvature, and the contact angle between the hypersurface and the cone boundary being ε-periodic in its position. First, by constructing a family of self-si…

result Demonstrates effective scalability and applicability to real-world traffic data.
Time dilation 1−v21 and relative velocity v are observationally indistinguishable in the special theory of relativity, a duality that carries over into the general theory under Fermi coordinates along a curve (in coordinate-independent language, in the tangent Minkowski space along the curve). For …
An (r,n)-velocity is an r-jet with source at 0∈Rn, and target in a manifold Y. An (r,n)-velocity is said to be regular, if it has a representative which is an immersion at 0∈Rn. The manifold TnrY of (r,n)-velocities as well as its open, Lnr-invariant, dense submanifold $\Imm …
