Outline of Final Research Achievements

We consider the Eikonal equation in a space such as network or fractal, where the gradient of function is not well-defined in canonical way. We establish the theory of viscosity solutions in a general metric space. We also establish the theory of viscosity solutions for a curvature flow equation describing motion of a surface of a crystal or a grain boundary, especially a crystalline curvature flow, which has a strong anisotropy, when the surface is regarded as a curve. A curvature flow with strong anisotropy is regarded at least formally as a gradient flow of area measured by non-Euclidean metric in a suitable metric space. However, a general theory is not yet established so we study the problem individually.
