Abstract
Abstract:In this note we shall discuss the heat equation and the eigenvalue problem for digital curves in the 3D Euclidean space. First, we shall introduce the derivative of a function along a digital curve by the weighted combination method. Then, we can define the Laplace of a function on a digital curve. The Frenet formulas for digital curves will also be discussed. Numerical simulations show our method will provide good estimations for the curvature and torsion.
