Abstract: "We study the limiting behavior of solutions to appropriately rescaled versions of the Allen-Cahn equation, a model for phase transition in polycrystalline material. We rigourously establish the existence in the limit of a phase-antiphase interface evolving according to mean curvature motion. This assertion is valid for all positive time, the motion interpreted in the generalized sense of Evans-Spruck and Chen-Giga-Goto after the onset of geometric singularities."
