DESCRIPTION: Grid Peeling is the process of taking the integer grid points 
 inside a convex region and repeatedly removing the convex hull vertices. By
  contrast\, the Affine Curve-Shortening Flow (ACSF) is defined as a particu
 lar deformation of a smooth curve. It has been observed in 2017 by Eppstein
 \, Har-Peled\, and Nivasch\, that\, as the grid is refined\, Grid Peeling c
 onverges to the Affine Curve-Shortening Flow.  As part of the M.Ed. thesis 
 of Moritz Rüber\, we have investigated the grid peeling process for special
  parabolas\, and we could observe some striking phenomena. This has lead to
  the precise value of the constant that relates the two processes. With Mor
 teza Saghafian from IST Austria\, we could prove the convergence of grid pe
 eling for the class of parabolas with vertical axis.
