Abstract
The use of continuum phase-field models to describe the motion of well-defined interfaces is discussed for a class of phenomena that includes order-disorder transitions, spinodal decomposition and Ostwald ripening, dendritic growth, and the solidification of eutectic alloys. The projection operator method is used to extract the "sharp-interface limit" from phase-field models which have interfaces that are diffuse on a length scale xi. In particular, phase-field equations are mapped onto sharp-interface equations in the limits xi(kappa)<<1 and xi(v)/D<<1, where kappa and v are, respectively, the interface curvature and velocity and D is the diffusion constant in the bulk. The calculations provide one general set of sharp-interface equations that incorporate the Gibbs-Thomson condition, the Allen-Cahn equation, and the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang equation.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
