They are well-known as the circle, hairclip, paperclip, and grim reaper solutions of the curve shortening flow. By the methods, one can also see that the hairclip and the paperclip solutions both converge to the grim reaper solutions as t → -∞.展开更多

Altschuler's results about flow for space curves are generalized. We prove that the curve shortening flow converges to a straight line in infinite time if the initial curve is a ramp. We also prove the planar phenomenon when the curve shortening flow blows up.展开更多
