We consider a regular embedded network composed by two curves, one of them closed, in a convex domain Ω. The two curves meet only in one point, forming angle of 120 degrees. The non-closed curve has a fixed end point on ∂Ω. We study the evolution by curvature of this network. We show that the maximal existence time depends only on the area enclosed in the initial loop, if the length of the non-closed curve stays bounded from below during the evolution. Moreover, the closed curve shrinks to a point and the network is asymptotically approaching, after dilations and extraction of a subsequence, a Brakke spoon.Mathematics Subject classification (2010). 53C44 (primary); 53A04, 35K55 (secondary).with loops. We call Brakke spoon a spoon-shaped network composed by a half-line which meets a closed curve shrinking in a self-similar way during the evolution. The main result is the following: Theorem 1.1. Given a spoon-shaped network Γ t evolving by curvature in a strictly convex and open set Ω ∈ R 2 , there exists a finite time T such that either the inferior limit of the length of the non-closed curve goes to zero as t → T , or there exists a point x 0 ∈ Ω such that for a subsequence of rescaled time t j the associate rescaled network tends to a Brakke spoon as j → ∞.This result can be seen as an analogue of Grayson's theorem for a closed curve, which says that an embedded evolving curve in R 2 becomes eventually convex without developing singularities and then shrinks to a point (see [6,7]). A new proof of this theorem is given in [14]. In Proposition 5.4, we obtain, up to subsequence, as possible limits, sets that satisfy the equation k + x|ν = 0 for all x, where k is the curvature and ν is the unit normal vector. Satisfying the previous equation, the sets shrink homothetically. The existence and uniqueness of self-similar shrinking solution of a problem similar to ours is proved in [4]: Chen and Guo consider an equivalent system that describes the motion by curvature, but they focus on the evolution of a curve symmetric about the x−axis, and consider the part of the curve in the upper half-plane, which forms fixed angles with the axis. In Proposition 5.4, to gain existence of a unique limit set, without self-intersections, with multiplicity one, with curvature not constantly zero, we will apply [4, Theorem 3], as our asymptotic solution is one of the Abresch-Langer curves, symmetric and convex.
