■ Paper
  • Katsuyuki Ishii, Yoshihito Kohsaka, Nobuhito Miyake, Koya Sakakibara
    We propose a thresholding algorithm for Willmore-type flows in \mathbb{R}^{N} . This algorithm is constructed based on the asymptotic expansion of the solution to the initial value problem for a fourth-order linear parabolic partial differential equation whose initial data is the indicator function on the compact set \Omega_{0} . The main results of this paper demonstrate that the boundary \partial\Omega(t) of the new set \Omega(t) , generated by our algorithm, is included in O(t) -neighborhood of \partial\Omega_{0} for small t>0 and that the normal velocity from \partial\Omega_{0} to \partial\Omega(t) is nearly equal to the L^{2} -gradient of Willmore-type energy for small t>0 . Finally, numerical examples of planar curves governed by the Willmore flow are provided by using our thresholding algorithm.

    Willmore流によって運動が記述される曲面の閾値型近似アルゴリズムの研究を行った。Willmore流の場合は4階熱方程式に対する基本解のTaylor展開をもとに閾値型近似アルゴリズムが導出できることを2020年度に示したので、2021年度はその近似アルゴリズムにおいて基本解の導関数の展開を導くことによって、閾値関数から得られる閾値集合の境界での閾値関数の勾配評価を得た。また、Willmore汎関数に表面積汎関数を加えたエネルギー汎関数の勾配流によって運動が記述される曲面についても閾値型近似アルゴリズムを研究し、4階熱方程式に空間変数に関する2階導関数の項を加えた線形4階放物型偏微分方程式の基本解のTaylor展開をもとにすれば、この場合も閾値型近似アルゴリズムが構成できることを示した。さらにWillmore流の場合と同様にしてその閾値関数から得られる閾値集合の境界での閾値関数の勾配評価を導いた。今回得た閾値型近似アルゴリズムは変分的時間離散近似との関係付けが期待できることに気づいたので、現在は曲げエネルギーに長さ汎関数を加えたエネルギー汎関数の勾配流によって運動が記述される曲線の場合に変分的時間離散近似との関係性をもとにした収束証明を検討している。また、上記の閾値型近似アルゴリズムはHelfrich流(Willmore汎関数に表面積汎関数と体積汎関数を加えたエネルギー汎関数の勾配流)によって運動が記述される曲面への応用も期待できるので、それについても現在検討している。

    石井は Willmore 流に対する閾値型近似アルゴリズムの研究を行った。4 階熱方程式や 2 階の項をもつ線形 4 階放物型偏微分方程式について、その基本解を Taylor 展開することによって閾値型近似アルゴリズムを構成した。更に 4 階熱方程式の場合には、解の挙動を詳しく調べることにより、その解を使って定義される閾値集合の性質やその境界での解の勾配評価を得た。この証明には半空間に対する定義関数を初期値とする 4 階熱方程式の解のある種の正値性が鍵となっている。2 階の項をもつ線形 4 階放物型偏微分方程式の解を用いて定義される閾値集合の場合にも同様の性質が得られると考えており、研究を進めている。
    高坂はWillmore汎関数に表面積 (曲線の場合は長さ) 汎関数を加えたエネルギー汎関数の勾配流について、閾値型近似アルゴリズムの研究を行った。低階項をもつ線形 4 階放物型偏微分方程式の基本解の Taylor 展開をもとに、上記の勾配流に対する閾値型近似アルゴリズムを構成した。解を用いて定義される閾値集合について、その境界における解の勾配評価について研究を進めている。
    上田はこれまでに研究を進めてきた対称双曲型偏微分方程式系の安定性解析に関する研究に着手し、既知の結果の拡張に成功した。また、一般論の拡張にあたってその最適性に関する問題が浮上したが、京都大学の前川泰則氏と共にその最適性に関する条件の導入にも着手し、ある一定の結果を得ることに成功している。

    主な研究成果として以下の2つを挙げる. (1)Salvatore Stuvard(ミラノ大学)と共同で前年度から引き続き研究を行っている余次元1の閉修正可能集合を初期値としたブラッケ流の存在定理について,特にブラッケ流の囲む領域の体積変化について,当初の我々の予想を凌ぐシャープな結果を得ることに成功した.論文はAdvances in Calculus of Variationsに出版受理済である.存在を示したブラッケ流は有界変動関数の枠組みにおける平均曲率流にもなっており,そのためブラッケ流特有の非一意性の問題を解決している.有界変動関数の枠組みの時間大域解の存在定理自体が知られていなかった中,この存在定理は一般化された平均曲率流に対して新しい概念を発見した,とも言える結果である. (2)曲面のブラッケの意味での法線方向速度が,平均曲率と外力項の和で表せる問題を考える.葛西-利根川(2014)による正則性定理により,ほとんどの点において動く曲面はパラボリックの意味で局所的にC^1級グラフになることがわかっていたが,外力項がヘルダー連続ではない場合,界面運動を表す2階放物型方程式の強解になるかどうかは未解決だった.この問題に対し,森龍之介(東工大特別研究員)と富松瑛太(D2)と共同で,もしグラフの時間微分がラドン測度であれば,グラフは期待される2階偏微分方程式の強解になっていることが解明された.興味深いことに,Allen-Cahn方程式から得られる解はこの条件を満たしている.これはブラッケの意味での界面速度の繊細な性質を表すものであり,未知であった現象である.論文はIndiana University Math Journalに出版受理済みである.

    To study the spatial patterns of solutions of partial differential equations, such as reaction-diffusion systems, we introduce a reaction-interface system, which consists of the interface equation and an equation in the whole space. This is derived as a singular limit of some reaction-diffusion systems. We studied the multidimensional traveling wave solution and the pulse dynamics of the reaction-interface system. Moreover, for the curvature flow with the anisotropic external force, we study the influence of the anisotropy to the compact traveling wave solutions. We also introduce the layered system to analyze the spatial profiles of solutions in multidimensional space.

    We proved the basic existence and regularity theorems for the mean curvature flow considered in the framework of geometric measure theory which is called Brakke's mean curvature flow. As for the existence theorem, when given an arbitrary n-dimensional closed set in an n+1-dimensional Euclidean space, we proved the time global existence of the Brakke's mean curvature flow that evolves from the given initial data. For the analysis of the singular set, we proved the regularity theory around triple junction in the one-dimensional case, and showed the strong stability property of the triple junction within the weak topology of measure.

    When we deal with variational problems for hypersurfaces, some difficulties may occur. Assuming some symmetry, the problems can be reduced to the problem of curves. Here we obtain three kind of results. First, we reduce the inelastic collision of elastic shell to the problem of centerline, and propose a mathematical model and perform numerical simulation. Secondly, we study the global existence of rotational hypersurface with prescribed mean curvature. The problem can be reduced to the global existence of solutions of an ordinary differential equation which the generating curve satisfies. We resolve the problem completely for all types of hypersurfaces. Lastly we deal with the Moebius energy. We show that the energy can be decomposed into three parts keeping the Moebius invariance. By ude of the decomposition. the variational formulas are derived explicitly. Furthermore we have their estimates on several function spaces.

    We carried out systematic studies on the profile and behavior of solutions of elliptic and parabolic partial differential equations, and obtained the following results among others. For elliptic equations, we showed a Liouville-type theorem for an equation transformed by a scaling method. We also obtained results on the existence and no-existence of singular solutions and the structure of positive solutions for equations on the sphere, and equations with space-dependent exponent of nonlinearities. For parabolic equations, we made clear the structure of solutions of a linear heat equation with inverse-square potential. We also studied the Fujita equation about the boundedness of time-global solutions, existence of singular solutions and their stability, and Fisher's equation about the dynamics of interfaces.

    The motion of three hypersurfaces by mean curvature flow is studied. These hypersurfaces intersect each other. The existence of a local-in-time solution to an initial and boundary value problem for a system of nonlinear parabolic partial differential equations with non-local term is showed. Also, the motion of an axisymmetric surface by surface diffusion equation is studied. In order to obtain the linearized stability of a stationary surface, a corresponding eigenvalue problem is derived and analyzed.

    In this research we investigate the gradient flow with constraints for functionals defined for family of curves and surfaces as geometric evolution equations. The gradient flow, which decreases the value of functionals via deformation, is one of the method for finding critical points. Various shapes in the nature should be stable in some sense. Functionals are the measure of stability, and therefore the limit of gradient flow should be stable in this sense. Nagasawa and Kohsaka consider the Willmore functional for surfaces with prescribed area and enclosed volume (the Helfrich variational problem), and construct the associate gradient flow (the Helfrich flow), and analyze the structure of center manifold near sphere. On the stationary problem for the problem, solutions bifurcating from sphere with more 2, 4, 6 and 8 are constructed by Nagasawa. We reduce the bifurcation equation by use of the group equivariance but not the equivariant branching lemma of the bifurcation theory. Furthermore Nagasawa considers the Helfrich flow for plane curves. There an approximate problem such that the constraints are realized as a singular limit is proposed. It is shown that the uniform estimates for solutions for approximate problem and their convergence. In many case, equations of gradient flow are parabolic type. Koike investigates the maximum principle and comparison results for fully nonlinear parabolic and elliptic equations. Ohta studies the stability of solutions for evolution equation of hyperbolic type. Sakamoto investigates the CR-structure of manifolds. Kohsaka studies the nonlinear stability of stationary solutions for surface diffusion with boundary conditions. Solutions of geometric variational problem are weak solution of a nonlinear equation. Hence it is important to analyze their regularity. Tachikawa studies the regularity theory of minimal critical points for integral functional with discontinuous coefficients.

    平面上の有界領域内で2相を隔てる相境界を表す曲線の運動が幾何学的時間発展方程式の1つである平均曲率流方程式によって記述される数学モデルについて解析を行った。 平均曲率流方程式は、1956年にMullinsによって、粒界の運動方程式として紹介された。また、1979年にはAllenとCahnによって、2元合金の規則相に現れる逆位相境界の運動を記述する界面の運動方程式として平均曲率流方程式が紹介され、そこではGinzburg-Landau型の方程式と平均曲率流方程式との関連性が述べられている。さらに近年では、数理生態学における競争拡散系モデルやBZ反応等の化学反応を記述する反応拡散方程式の特異極限として、平均曲率流方程式が導出されることが知られている。 本年度は、平面上の有界領域内の3重結節点をもつ3相境界運動が平均曲率流方程式によって記述される場合について研究し、この数学モデルの定常曲線(3重結節点をもつ3線分)の非線形安定性の解析を行った。より具体的には、定常曲線の線形安定性の判定基準に用いたエネルギーの第2変分の解析と、幾何学的な考察から得られる曲率に関する方程式に対してエネルギー法的な手法を適用することで、定常曲線の非線形安定性に関する結果を得た。つまり、初期曲線が線形安定(定常曲線の周りでの線形化問題に対応する固有値問題の固有値がすべて負)な定常曲線にエネルギー的視点からみて近い場合に、その初期曲線を出発点とする平均曲率流方程式の解曲線が、この定常曲線に時間発展とともに漸近的に近づいていくことを数学的に解析した。今回適用した手法は、3重結節点をもつ3相境界運動が表面拡散流方程式によって記述される数学モデルの解析にも適用可能であると考えられるので、今後は表面拡散流方程式のモデルに関しても解析を進めていく予定である。

    (1)I considered the relation between special values of the standard zeta functions and the congruence a Siegel cusp form of arbitrary degree. In particular, I proposed a conjecture concerning the congruence of the Saito-Kurokawa lift of a cuspidal Hecke eigenform with respect to SL(2,Z) and the special value of its L-function, and proved it under certain condition. Furthermore we gave some numerical evidence for our conjecture. I gave talks on these topics at the workshop held at Hakuba on October 2004, and at the conference held at Karatsu on March 2005. (2)Let M and N be square free positive integers, and φ and χ be Dirichlet characters mod M and N, respectively. For a cuspidal Hecke eigenform f of neben type φ I gave an explicit formula for the special values of the standard zeta function of f twisted by χ. I gave numerical examples for these values and checked some results derived from the Block-Kato conjecture. (3)I proved that the space of Eisenstein series of square free level of quadratic nebentype is spanned by the genus theta series jointly with R. Schulze-Pillot. By using this result, I proved that the space of cusp forms of square free level of quadratic nebentype is spanned by the theta series jointly with S.Boecherer and R.Schulze-Pillot. They gave talks on these topics at the symposium held at Rikkyo University on September 2004. (4)I gave an explicit form of the Koecher-Maass series for the real analytic Eisenstein series jointly with T.Ibukiyama. I gave a talk on this topic at the symposium held at Rikkyo University on September 2004.
