For mean curvat ure flow this has been heavily investigated by\, e.g.\, Hamilton\, Huisken and Sinestrari\, and Brendle and Huisken.\nBased on these works we will d iscuss an algorithm for mean curvature flow with numerical surgery\, a pro cess which automatically handles these topological changes\, by cutting aw ay some surface-portions and closing the remaining parts by spherical caps .\nIn view of this\, the following ethical statement seems appropriate: No ne of the test subjects were permanently harmed during the experiments.\n LOCATION:https://researchseminars.org/talk/cam/61/ END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
