Una dimostrazione della disuguaglianza di Penrose riemanniana per mezzo della teoria del potenziale nonlineare

Discuterò la disuguaglianza di Penrose riemanniana in una 3-varietà asintoticamente piatta, con curvatura scalare non negativa, e i punti principali di una nuova dimostrazione per mezzo di una formula...

K3 hypergeometric modular forms

In 1977 at the Cortona Conference on several complex variables the speaker proposed to make studies on "the K3 modular function". That is the explicit expression of the inverse of the period map for a...

Yamabe type problems and singular Riemannian foliations

The Yamabe problem is a classical problem about how to find Riemannian metrics of constant scalar curvature. This problem can be written as a PDE with unique positive solutions. On the other hand, the...

Mixing of the Averaging process on graphs

The Averaging process (a.k.a. repeated averages) is a mass redistribution model over the vertex set of a graph. Given a graph G, the process starts with a non-negative mass associated to each vertex. ...

Long time asymptotic of action functionals

I will provide a self-contained variational approach to state some classical and new results in the framework of Aubry-Mather theory. More precisely, I will discuss the expansion by Gamma-convergence ...

On the cost of covering a fraction of a macroscopic body by a simple random walk.

In this talk we aim at establishing large deviation estimates for the probability that a simple random walk on the Euclidean lattice (d>2) covers a substantial fraction of a macroscopic body. It tu...

Travelling through turnpikes in the Kinetic Schrödinger Problem

The Schrödinger problem consists in finding the most likely evolution of a system of i.i.d. particles, conditionally on their initial and final configurations. In the last decade this problem has beco...

Sul numero di punti critici di soluzioni di problemi ellittici

A.MA.CA. Si parlerà di proprietà qualitative di soluzioni di equazioni ellittiche su domini limitati con dato al bordo di Dirichlet. In particolare ci si soffermerà sul numero dei punti critici in re...

Green functions for a quasilinear operator and applications

We discuss existence, uniqueness and “regularity” issues for the Green function of the quasi-linear operator u \to -\Delta_p u-\lambda...

Stochastic homogenisation of free-discontinuity problems

In this talk we discuss the stochastic homogenisation of free-discontinuity functionals. Assuming stationarity for the random volume and surface integrands, we prove the existence of a homogenised ran...

Large blowup-sets for Q-curvature equations

On a bounded domain of the Euclidean space R2m,m>1, Adimurthi, Robert and Struwe pointed out that, even assuming a volume bound ∫e2mudx≤C, some blow-up solutions for prescribed Q-curvature equation...

Robust Fourier fingerprints for crystals and generalizations

I will start by giving an introductory overview of different notions of generalized crystals (including quasicrystals), unified by the requirement that their Fourier transforms are atomic. Then we stu...
