Curvature bounds for neighborhoods of self-similar sets

Steffen Winter (2011)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

In some recent work, fractal curvatures C k f ( F ) and fractal curvature measures C k f ( F , · ) , k = 0 , ... , d , have been determined for all self-similar sets F in d , for which the parallel neighborhoods satisfy a certain regularity condition and a certain rather technical curvature bound. The regularity condition is conjectured to be always satisfied, while the curvature bound has recently been shown to fail in some concrete examples. As a step towards a better understanding of its meaning, we discuss several equivalent...

A rough curvature-dimension condition for metric measure spaces

Anca-Iuliana Bonciocat (2014)

Open Mathematics

Similarity:

We introduce and study a rough (approximate) curvature-dimension condition for metric measure spaces, applicable especially in the framework of discrete spaces and graphs. This condition extends the one introduced by Karl-Theodor Sturm, in his 2006 article On the geometry of metric measure spaces II, to a larger class of (possibly non-geodesic) metric measure spaces. The rough curvature-dimension condition is stable under an appropriate notion of convergence, and stable under discretizations...

Boundaries of prescribed mean curvature

Similarity:

The existence of a singular curve in R 2 is proven, whose curvature can be extended to an L 2 function. The curve is the boundary of a two dimensional set, minimizing the length plus the integral over the set of the extension of the curvature. The existence of such a curve was conjectured by E. De Giorgi, during a conference held in Trento in July 1992.

Uniqueness results for the Minkowski problem extended to hedgehogs

Yves Martinez-Maure (2012)

Open Mathematics

Similarity:

The classical Minkowski problem has a natural extension to hedgehogs, that is to Minkowski differences of closed convex hypersurfaces. This extended Minkowski problem is much more difficult since it essentially boils down to the question of solutions of certain Monge-Ampère equations of mixed type on the unit sphere 𝕊 n of ℝn+1. In this paper, we mainly consider the uniqueness question and give first results.

The mean curvature of a Lipschitz continuous manifold

Elisabetta Barozzi, Eduardo Gonzalez, Umberto Massari (2003)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti Lincei. Matematica e Applicazioni

Similarity:

The paper is devoted to the description of some connections between the mean curvature in a distributional sense and the mean curvature in a variational sense for several classes of non-smooth sets. We prove the existence of the mean curvature measure of E by using a technique introduced in [4] and based on the concept of variational mean curvature. More precisely we prove that, under suitable assumptions, the mean curvature measure of E is the weak limit (in the sense of distributions)...
