Overview: Elementary introduction to mean curvature flow, including the short time existence result, using the signed distance function.Detailed study of minimal barriers and their regularizations for mean curvThe aim of the book is to study some aspects of geometric evolutions, such as mean curvature flow and anisotropic mean curvature flow of hypersurfaces. We analyze the origin of such flows and their geometric and variational nature. Some of the most important aspects of mean curvature flow are described, such as the comparison principle and its use in the definition of suitable weak solut
