Description

This work considers (singular) surfaces moving by mean curvature, combining tools of geometric measure theory with viscosity solution techniques. Employing the geometrically natural concept of elliptic regularization, the author establishes the existence of these surfaces. The work of Brakke, combined with the recently developed level set approach, yields surfaces moving by mean curvature that are smooth almost everywhere. The methods developed here should form a foundation for further work in the field, and the book is also noteworthy for its clear exposition and for an introductory chapter summarizing the key compactness theorems of geometric measure theory.
