UW-PIMS Colloquia: Weak Solution Concepts for Nonlinear Elliptic PDE and Associated Regularity

  • Date: 04/16/2010
Lecturer(s):
Neil Trudinger (Australian National University)
Location: 

University of Washington

Description: 

We introduce and explore some concepts of weak solution for particular nonlinear partial differential equations.These notions have their roots in the fundamental work of A. D. Aleksandrov on the Monge-Ampere measure. We also consider applications to affine and complex geometry and to optimal transportation.

Schedule: 

2:30pm, Room 045, Electrical Engineering Building.
