Min-max construction of anisotropic CMC surfaces

We prove the existence of nontrivial closed smooth surfaces with constant anisotropic mean curvature with respect to elliptic integrands in closed smooth 3-dimensional Riemannian manifolds. Joint work...

Chasing regularization by noise of 3D Navier-Stokes equations

Abstract: Global well-posedness of 3D Navier-Stokes equations (NSEs) is one of the biggest open problems in modern mathematics. A long-standing conjecture in stochastic fluid dynamics suggests th...

Variational Problems under topological constraints

Abstract: The seminal work of Brezis-Coron (1983) for 2-dimensional harmonic maps introduces an estimate that leads to the existence of harmonic maps minimizing in different homotopy classes. This had...

Normal form and dynamics of the Kirchhoff equation

Abstract: In this talk I will present some recent results on the Kirchhoff equation of nonlinear elasticity, describing transversal oscillations of strings and plates, with periodic boundary condition...

Three quick recipes with fully extended oriented 2d TQFTs

Abstract: It always happens: you have a talk for lunch and nothing prepared. Your signature dish never fails, but you have served it too many times already and you'd like to surprise your guests with ...

Radon measure-valued solutions of scalar conservation laws

Abstract: We present some results for Radon measure-valued solutions of first order scalar conservation laws. In particular we discuss the case in which the singular part of the initial datum is a sup...

The asymptotics of volume preserving geometric flows and a sharp quantitative Alexandrov inequality

Abstract: I will present a study on the asymptotic behavior of the volume preserving mean curvature and the Mullins-Sekerka flat flows in three dimensional space, for which we need to establish a ...

Classical W-algebras, Drinfeld-Sokolov hierarchies and tau functions

Abstract:  Classical W-algebras W(g,O) are a family of Poisson vertex algebras associated to a simple Lie algebra g and a nilpotent orbit O. For (almost) every W(g,O) it is possible to construct ...

Boundary effects in quantum system

Abstract:In this seminar I will present some of my research activities related to the rigorous analysis of a quantum particle confined in a bounded region of space. In the first part of the seminar I ...

A win-win interaction between conformal geometry and PDEs

Abstract:  In this talk I will present, in a very general way, some of my most recent works. I will show examples of how to use conformal geometry to prove some properties, including uniqueness, ...
