The main theme of this lecture is analysis of geometrical evolution equations based on analytical method of nonlinear partial differential equations. As a geometrical evolution equation, let us consider the mean curvature flow as the object of analysis and consider the case where three hypersurfaces that move due to mean curvature flow intersect each other. First, we learn how to express mean curvature, and derive initial value and boundary value problem of system of nonlinear parabolic partial differential equations from the problem of mean curvature flow in the above setting. For the initial value and boundary value problem of the nonlinear parabolic partial differential equation obtained, applying the analytical method of nonlinear partial differential equation, we clarify the existence of time local solution.
In this lecture, we will learn how to derive geometric quantities for hypersurfaces and prove the existence of temporal local solutions of nonlinear parabolic partial differential equations.
· The mean curvature can be derived for a given hypersurface.
· It is possible to understand linearization of nonlinear problem and the analytical method on the linearization problem.
· You can understand the existence proof of the time local solution of the nonlinear problem using the fixed point theorem.
