On the Stability Problem of Equilibrium Discrete Planar Curves
Keyword(s):
AbstractWe study planar polygonal curves with the variational methods. We show a unified interpretation of discrete curvatures and the Steiner-type formula by extracting the notion of the discrete curvature vector from the first variation of the length functional. Moreover, we determine the equilibrium curves for the length functional under the area-constraint condition and study their stability.
