contents We propose a structure-preserving parametric approximation for geometric flows with general anisotropic effects. By introducing a hyperparameter $α$, we construct a unified surface energy matrix $\hat{\boldsymbol{G}}_k^α(θ)$ that encompasses all existing formulations of surface energy matrices, and apply it to anisotropic curvature flow. We prove that $α=-1$ is the unique choice achieving optimal energy stability under the necessary and sufficient condition $3\hatγ(θ)\geq\hatγ(θ-π)$, while all other $α\neq-1$ require strictly stronger conditions. The framework extends naturally to general anisotropic geometric flows through a unified velocity discretization that ensures energy stability. Numerical experiments validate the theoretical optimality of $α=-1$ and demonstrate the effectiveness and robustness.
