In this article we study Chens flow of curves from theoreical and numerical perspectives. We investigate two settings: that of closed immersed $omega$-circles, and immersed lines satisfying a cocompactness condition. In each of the settings our goal is to find geometric conditions that allow us to understand the global behaviour of the flow: for the cocompact case, the condition is straightforward and the argument is largely standard. For the closed case however, the argument is quite complex. The flow shrinks every initial curve to a point if it does not become singular beforehand, and we must identify a condition to ensure this behaviour as well as identify the point in order to perform the requisite rescaling. We are able to successfully conduct a full analysis of the rescaling under a curvature condition. The analysis resembles the case of the mean curvature flow more than other fourth-order curvature flow such as the elastic flow or the curve diffusion flow, despite the lack of maximum and comparison principles. Our work is informed by a numerical study of the flow, and we include a section that explains the algorithms used and gives some further simulations.

In this paper we consider the steepest descent $L^2$-gradient flow of the entropy functional. The flow expands convex curves, with the radius of an initial circle growing like the square root of time. Our main result is that, for any initial curve (e ither immersed locally convex of class $C^2$ or embedded of class $W^{2,2}$ bounding a convex domain), the flow converges smoothly to a round expanding multiply-covered circle.

We study biharmonic hypersurfaces and biharmonic submanifolds in a Riemannian manifold. One of interesting problems in this direction is Chens conjecture which says that any biharmonic submanifold in a Euclidean space is minimal. From the invariant e quation for biharmonic submanifolds, we derive a fundamental identity involving the mean curvature vector field, and using this, we prove Chens conjecture on biharmonic submanifolds in a Euclidean space. More generally, it is proved that any biharmonic submanifold in a space form of nonpositively sectional curvature is minimal. Furthermore we provide affirmative partial answers to the generalized Chens conjecture and Balmuc{s}-Montaldo-Oniciuc conjecture.
This chapter reviews some past and recent developments in shape comparison and analysis of curves based on the computation of intrinsic Riemannian metrics on the space of curves modulo shape-preserving transformations. We summarize the general constr uction and theoretical properties of quotient elastic metrics for Euclidean as well as non-Euclidean curves before considering the special case of the square root velocity metric for which the expression of the resulting distance simplifies through a particular transformation. We then examine different numerical approaches that have been proposed to estimate such distances in practice and in particular to quotient out curve reparametrization in the resulting minimization problems.

We develop the theory of fractional gradient flows: an evolution aimed at the minimization of a convex, l.s.c.~energy, with memory effects. This memory is characterized by the fact that the negative of the (sub)gradient of the energy equals the so-ca lled Caputo derivative of the state. We introduce the notion of energy solutions, for which we provide existence, uniqueness and certain regularizing effects. We also consider Lipschitz perturbations of this energy. For these problems we provide an a posteriori error estimate and show its reliability. This estimate depends only on the problem data, and imposes no constraints between consecutive time-steps. On the basis of this estimate we provide an a priori error analysis that makes no assumptions on the smoothness of the solution.

In this paper, we consider the evolution of spacelike graphic curves defined over a piece of hyperbola $mathscr{H}^{1}(1)$, of center at origin and radius $1$, in the $2$ dimensional Lorentz-Minkowski plane $mathbb{R}^{2}_{1}$ along an anisotropic in verse mean curvature flow with the vanishing Neumann boundary condition, and prove that this flow exists for all the time. Moreover, we can show that, after suitable rescaling, the evolving spacelike graphic curves converge smoothly to a piece of hyperbola of center at origin and prescribed radius, which actually corresponds to a constant function defined over the piece of $mathscr{H}^{1}(1)$, as time tends to infinity.
