## A fast blow-up solution and degenerate pinching arising in an anisotropic crystalline motion

The asymptotic behavior of solutions to an anisotropic crystalline motion is investigated. In this motion, a solution polygon changes the shape by a power of crystalline curvature in its normal direction and develops singularity in a finite time. At the final time, two types of singularity appear: one is a single point-extinction and the other is degenerate pinching. We will discuss the latter case of singularity and show the exact blow-up rate for a fast blow-up or a type II blow-up solution which arises in an equivalent blow-up problem.
