Abstract
We study weak solutions to mean curvature flow satisfying Young’s angle condition for general contact angles α ∈ (0, π). First, we construct BV solutions by using the Allen-Cahn approximation with boundary contact energy as proposed by Owen and Sternberg. Second, we prove the weak-strong uniqueness and stability for this solution concept. The main ingredient for both results is a relative energy, which can also be interpreted as a tilt excess.
