title: Inverse mean curvature flow
text: In the mathematical fields of differential geometry and geometric analysis, inverse mean curvature flow (IMCF) is a geometric flow of submanifolds of a Riemannian or pseudo-Riemannian manifold. It has been used to prove a certain case of the Riemannian Penrose inequality, which is of interest in general relativity. Formally, given a pseudo-Riemannian manifold and a smooth manifold S, an inverse mean curvature flow consists of an open interval I and a smooth map F from I × S into M such that wher
