Outline of Final Research Achievements

In the field of geometric analysis, minimal surface is historically an important object of study and mean curvature flow which is the time-evolutionary version gives a dynamic perspective to the minimal surfaces. For Brakke flow which is a mean curvature flow considered within the framework of geometric measure theory, we proved the following: the time-global existence theorem with fixed boundary condition, the existence of canonical mean curvature flow whose concept is new, an ultimate end-time regularity theorem, and an existence theorem of non-trivial Brakke flow starting from minimal surface with flat singularity. The last result naturally leads to a new concept of dynamic stability/instability for minimal surfaces with singularities.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

幾何学的測度論を用いた極小曲面に関する結果は決定的で学術的に重要なものが多い一方で、その時間発展版であるBrakke流については未知の部分が多い。当該研究はその基本的な存在定理や正則性定理などに関して着実な結果を出し、またそれらを通じて標準的平均曲率流や極小曲面の動的な安定性など、複数の新しい概念の創出に至っているという点で学術的意義がある。
