In this paper, a numerical approach is proposed to find a semi analytical solution for a prescribed anisotropic mean curvature equation modeling the human corneal shape. The method is based on an integral operator that is constructed in terms of Green’s function coupled with the implementation of Picard’s or Mann’s fixed point iteration schemes. Using the contraction principle, it will be shown that the method is convergent for both fixed point iteration schemes. Numerical examples will be presented to demonstrate the applicability, efficiency, and high accuracy of the proposed method.

We study the prescribed mean curvature equation with Neumann boundary conditions in domains of Riemannian manifold. The main goal is to establish the gradient estimates for solutions by the maximum principle. As a consequence, we obtain an existence result.

In this paper, we study the asymptotic behavior of Palais-Smale sequences associated with the prescribed mean curvature equation on a compact manifold with boundary. We prove that every such sequence converges to a solution of the associated equation plus finitely many “bubbles” obtained by rescaling fundamental solutions of the corresponding Euclidean boundary value problem.
