"Curvature evolution of lens-shaped domains"

I will discuss curvature flow of planar nonconvex lens-shaped domains, considered as special symmetric networks with two triple junctions. In particular, I'll show that the evolving domain becomes convex in finite time, and then shrinks homothetically to a point. Such result is the analog of a theorem by Grayson for curvature flow of planar embedded curves.
