Anisotropic Wavefronts and Laguerre Geometry

Motivated by the study of wave fronts in anisotropic media, we propose an incidence geometry of anisotropic spheres in a Finsler-Minkowski space. An anisotropic version of the Laguerre functional is considered. In some circumstances, this functional can be used to determine that two wavefronts observed at distinct times in a homogeneous, anisotropic medium, do not originate from the same source

Stable closed equilibria for anisotropic surface energies: Surfaces with edges

We study the stability of closed, not necessarily smooth, equilibrium surfaces of an anisotropic surface energy for which the Wulff shape is not necessarily smooth. We show that if the Cahn Hoffman field can be extended continuously to the whole surface and if the surface is stable, then the surface is, up to rescaling, the Wulff shape

Helicoidal surfaces with constant anisotropic mean curvature

We study surfaces with constant anisotropic mean curvature which are invariant under a helicoidal motion. For functionals with axially symmetric Wulff shapes, we generalize the recently developed twizzler representation of Perdomo to the anisotropic case and show how all helicoidal constant anisotropic mean curvature surfaces can be obtained by quadratures
