A closest point penalty method for evolution equations on surfaces

<p>This thesis introduces and analyses a numerical method for solving time-dependent partial differential equations (PDEs) on surfaces. This method is based on the closest point method, and solves the surface PDE by solving a suitably chosen equation in a band surrounding the surface. As it us...
