On Well-Posedness, Stability, and Bifurcation for the Axisymmetric Surface Diffusion Flow

Abstract: Abstract. We study the axisymmetric surface diffusion flow (ASD), a fourthorder geometric evolution law. In particular, we prove that ASD generates a real analytic semiflow in the space of (2 + α)-little-Hölder regular surfaces of revolution embedded in R 3 and satisfying periodic boundary conditions. Further, we investigate the geometric properties of solutions to ASD. Utilizing a connection to axisymmetric surfaces with constant mean curvature, we characterize the equilibria of ASD. Then, focusing on the fam… Show more

“…In [15] the short time existence for hinged curves is obtained with different methods. Maximal regularity methods for short time existence of geometric problems has been studied for instance in [9], [4], [12] or [1]. The main theorem of this paper yields a unique solution of the elastic flow to initial curves in a certain trace space which embeds merely in C 2,ε for some ε > 0, if the initial curve can be written as a normal graph over some fixed reference curve, see Assumption 1.3 and Theorem 1.2 for details.…”

“…Proof. Existence of maximal solutions is proved in the same way as Proposition 2.2 of [27], whereas the claim for global solutions differs slightly from Proposition 2.3 of [27] due to the fact that we do not have compact embedding of little-Hölder spaces over the non-compact manifold C r . In particular, well-posedness follows from [12, Theorems 3.1 and 4.1(c)], [36, Proposition 2.2(c)], and Proposition 3.1, while the semiflow properties follow from [12] when µ < 1 and from [5] in case µ = 1.…”

“…These flows have been studied by several authors for compact (closed) hypersurfaces. In this setting, existence, regularity, and qualitative behavior of solutions have been analyzed in [13,14,20,27,33,36,37] for the surface diffusion flow, and in [9,17,18,19,24,25,26,32,35] for the Willmore flow, to mention just a few publications.…”
