Simplifies Wulff theorem for crystalline shapes using Minkowski Theory.

In this paper, it is shown that a Wulff shape is strictly convex if and only if its convex integrand is of class $C^1$. Moreover, applications of this result are given.

New theorem proves convex bodies with specific curvature measures are rescaled Wulff shapes.

We show that for elliptic parametric functionals whose Wulff shape is smooth and has strictly positive curvature, any surface with constant anisotropic mean curvature which is a topological sphere is a rescaling of the Wulff shape.

The paper proves inequalities for star-shaped and $F$-mean convex hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$.

Sharp reverse affine isoperimetric inequalities for asymmetric Wulff shapes and their polars are established, along with the characterization of all extremals. These new inequalities have as special cases previously obtained simplex inequalities by Ball, Barthe and Lutwak, Yang, and Zhang. In particular, they provide t…

We study the stability of closed, not necessarily smooth, equilibrium surfaces of an anisotropic surface energy for which the Wulff shape is not necessarily smooth. We show that if the Cahn Hoffman field can be extended continuously to the whole surface and if the surface is stable, then the surface is, up to rescaling…

Optimal inequality for free boundary hypersurfaces in convex domains.

The paper introduces a new flow to converge to a Wulff shape from a smooth convex hypersurface.

Given a positive function F on S n satisfying an appropriate con-vexity assumption, we consider hypersurfaces for which a linear combination of some higher order anisotropic curvatures is constant. We define the varia-tional problem for which these hypersurfaces are critical points and we prove that, up to translations…

Study shows limits of volume-constrained sets are finite unions of Wulff shapes.

We study a variational problem for piecewise-smooth hypersurfaces in the (n+1)-dimensional Euclidean space with an anisotropic energy. An anisotropic energy is the integral of an energy density that depends on the normal at each point over the considered hypersurface. The minimizer of such an energy among all closed hy…

Study on anisotropic curvature flow for noncompact convex hypersurfaces.

Given a positive function F on Sn which satisfies a convexity condition, we introduce the r-th anisotropic mean curvature Mr for hypersurfaces in Rn+1 which is a generalization of the usual r-th mean curvature Hr. We get integral formulas of Minkowski type for compact hypersurfaces in Rn+1. We give some new characteriz…

We prove a qualitative and a quantitative stability of the following rigidity theorem: an anisotropic totally umbilical closed hypersurface is the Wulff shape. Consider $n \geq 2$, $p\in (1, \, +\infty)$ and $Σ$ an $n$-dimensional, closed hypersurface in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, boundary of a convex, open set. We show that …

New curvature measures characterize non-convex Wulff shapes in normed spaces.

In this paper, we show that the inverse anisotropic mean curvature flow in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, initiating from a star-shaped, strictly $F$-mean convex hypersurface, exists for all time and after rescaling the flow converges exponentially fast to a rescaled Wulff shape in the $C^\infty$ topology. As an application, we p…

We study the geometry of complete immersed surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$ with constant anisotropic mean curvature (CAMC). Assuming that the anisotropic functional is uniformly elliptic, we prove that: (1) planes and CAMC cylinders are the only complete surfaces with CAMC whose Gauss map image is contained in a closed hemi…

An anisotropic surface energy is the integral of an energy density that depends on the normal at each point over the considered surface, and it is a generalization of surface area. The minimizer of such an energy among all closed surfaces enclosing the same volume is unique and it is (up to rescaling) so-called the Wul…

We study surfaces with constant anisotropic mean curvature which are invariant under a helicoidal motion. For functionals with axially symmetric Wulff shapes, we generalize the recently developed twizzler representation of Perdomo to the anisotropic case and show how all helicoidal constant anisotropic mean curvature s…

We study the motion of discrete interfaces driven by ferromagnetic interactions on the two-dimensional triangular lattice by coupling the Almgren, Taylor and Wang minimizing movements approach and a discrete-to-continuum analysis, as introduced by Braides, Gelli and Novaga in the pioneering case of the square lattice. …

Given an elliptic integrand of class $\mathscr{C}^{3}$, we prove that finite unions of disjoint open Wulff shapes with equal radii are the only volume-constrained critical points of the anisotropic surface energy among all sets with finite perimeter and reduced boundary almost equal to its closure.

We establish existence of compact minimizers of the prescribed mean curvature problem with volume constraint in periodic media. As a consequence, we construct compact approximate solutions to the prescribed mean curvature equation. We also show convergence after rescaling of the volume-constrained minimizers towards a …

We prove some old and new isoperimetric inequalities with the best constant using the ABP method applied to an appropriate linear Neumann problem. More precisely, we obtain a new family of sharp isoperimetric inequalities with weights (also called densities) in open convex cones of $\mathbb{R}^n$. Our result applies to…

Let $X:M\to \mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ be an $n$-dimensional closed hypersu…

Given a positive function $F$ on $S^n$ which satisfies a convexity condition, for $1\leq r\leq n$, we define the $r$-th anisotropic mean curvature function $H^F_r$ for hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ which is a generalization of the usual $r$-th mean curvature function. We prove that a compact embedded hypersurface…

We prove that, for every closed (not necessarily convex) hypersurface $Σ$ in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ and every $p>n$, the $L^p$-norm of the trace-free part of the anisotropic second fundamental form controls from above the $W^{2,p}$-closeness of $Σ$ to the Wulff shape. In the isotropic setting, we provide a simpler proof. T…

Randomized smoothing is the current state-of-the-art defense with provable robustness against $\ell_2$ adversarial attacks. Many works have devised new randomized smoothing schemes for other metrics, such as $\ell_1$ or $\ell_\infty$; however, substantial effort was needed to derive such new guarantees. This begs the q…
