TLDR
In this paper, the notions of varifold and generalized mean curvature have been introduced, with a few simple examples, and they have been used to describe a variety of objects.

Approximation de surfaces par des varifolds discrets : représentation, courbure, rectifiabilité

Blanche Buet
TL;DR: In this article, the authors define a forme regularisee de la variation premiere d'un varifold, which permet de definir des energies de Jones approchees which convergent dans l'espace des varifolds vers l'energie de Willmore ainsi qu'une approximation of la courbure which est testee numeriquement dans le Chapitre 6.

Cubical Covers of Sets in $\mathbb{R}^n$

TL;DR: In this paper, the wildest sets for which it is still true that the representations faithfully inform us about the original set is the focus of this rather playful, expository paper that we hope will stimulate interest in cubical coverings as well as other two ideas we explore briefly: Jones' $\beta$ numbers and varifolds from geometric measure theory.

Functions of Bounded Variation and Free Discontinuity Problems

TL;DR: The Mumford-Shah functional minimiser of free continuity problems as mentioned in this paper is a special function of the Mumfordshah functional and has been shown to be a function of free discontinuity set.

On the first variation of a varifold

TL;DR: In this paper, the first variation of the k-dimensional area integral is studied and a regularity theorem for weakly defined k dimensional surfaces in Riemannian manifolds whose first variation is summable to a power greater than k is given.

The motion of a surface by its mean curvature

TL;DR: The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press to preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback editions.
