Vortrag 
The Willmore flow 
Ernst Kuwert 
23.11.2006, 11:30 Uhr
The talks discusses the motion of curves and surfaces by the negative gradient of the total squared curvature integral, reporting on results which have been obtained with Reiner Schaetzle (Tuebingen) in the past years. Despite of the progress, many global questions for these flows are not well understood.
