Abstract
We consider a free boundary problem representing one of the simplest mathematical descriptions of the growth and death of a tumour. The mathematical model takes the form of a closed interface evolving via forced mean curvature flow where the forcing depends on the solution of a PDE that holds in the domain enclosed by the interface. We derive sharp interface and diffuse interface finite element approximations of this model and present some numerical results
