  text: We consider the sharp interface limit for the scalar-valued and vector-valued
    Allen–Cahn equation with homogeneous Neumann boundary condition in a bounded smooth
    domain Ω of arbitrary dimension N ⩾ 2 in the situation when a two-phase diffuse
    interface has developed and intersects the boundary ∂ Ω. The limit problem is
    mean curvature flow with 90°-contact angle and we show convergence in strong norms
    for well-prepared initial data as long as a smooth solution to the limit problem
    exists. To this end we assume that the limit problem has a smooth solution on
    [ 0 , T ] for some time T &gt; 0. Based on the latter we construct suitable curvilinear
    coordinates and set up an asymptotic expansion for the scalar-valued and the vector-valued
    Allen–Cahn equation. In order to estimate the difference of the exact and approximate
    solutions with a Gronwall-type argument, a spectral estimate for the linearized
    Allen–Cahn operator in both cases is required. The latter will be shown in a separate
    paper, cf. (Moser (2021)).

  text: We extend the recent rigorous convergence result of Abels and Moser (SIAM
    J Math Anal 54(1):114–172, 2022. https://doi.org/10.1137/21M1424925) concerning
    convergence rates for solutions of the Allen–Cahn equation with a nonlinear Robin
    boundary condition towards evolution by mean curvature flow with constant contact
    angle. More precisely, in the present work we manage to remove the perturbative
    assumption on the contact angle being close to 90∘. We establish under usual double-well
    type assumptions on the potential and for a certain class of boundary energy densities
    the sub-optimal convergence rate of order ε12 for general contact angles α∈(0,π).
    For a very specific form of the boundary energy density, we even obtain from our
    methods a sharp convergence rate of order ε; again for general contact angles
    α∈(0,π). Our proof deviates from the popular strategy based on rigorous asymptotic
    expansions and stability estimates for the linearized Allen–Cahn operator. Instead,
    we follow the recent approach by Fischer et al. (SIAM J Math Anal 52(6):6222–6233,
    2020. https://doi.org/10.1137/20M1322182), thus relying on a relative entropy
    technique. We develop a careful adaptation of their approach in order to encode
    the constant contact angle condition. In fact, we perform this task at the level
    of the notion of gradient flow calibrations. This concept was recently introduced
    in the context of weak-strong uniqueness for multiphase mean curvature flow by
    Fischer et al. (arXiv:2003.05478v2).

  text: This paper is concerned with the sharp interface limit for the Allen--Cahn
    equation with a nonlinear Robin boundary condition in a bounded smooth domain
    Ω⊂\R2. We assume that a diffuse interface already has developed and that it is
    in contact with the boundary ∂Ω. The boundary condition is designed in such a
    way that the limit problem is given by the mean curvature flow with constant α-contact
    angle. For α close to 90° we prove a local in time convergence result for well-prepared
    initial data for times when a smooth solution to the limit problem exists. Based
    on the latter we construct a suitable curvilinear coordinate system and carry
    out a rigorous asymptotic expansion for the Allen--Cahn equation with the nonlinear
    Robin boundary condition. Moreover, we show a spectral estimate for the corresponding
    linearized Allen--Cahn operator and with its aid we derive strong norm estimates
    for the difference of the exact and approximate solutions using a Gronwall-type
    argument.
