On a simple method to find the hairclip and paperclip solutions of the curve shortening flow
Dong-Ho Tsai (National Tsing Hua University)
Abstract:
We use a simple method to derive four important explicit graphical solutions of the curve shortening flow in the plane. From this method, one can immediately see that the hairclip and the paperclip solutions both converge to the Grim Reaper solutions as
