Abstract: The Oxygen Depletion problem is an implicit free boundary value problem. The dynamics allow topological changes in the free boundary. We show several mathematical formulations of this model from the literature and give a new formulation based on a gradient flow with constraint. All formulations are shown to be equivalent. We explore the possibilities for the numerical approximation of the problem that arise from the different formulations. We show a convergence result for an approximation based on the gradient flow with constraint formulation that applies to the general dynamics including topological changes. More general (vector, higher order) implicit free boundary value problems are discussed. Several open problems are described.
