Venerdì 28 Novembre 2014 alle ore 14:00 in Aula S presso il Dipartimento di Matematica "G. Peano" dell'Università degli Studi di Torino, Via Carlo Alberto 10,

Il Dott. MICHAEL HINZ (Department of Mathematics, Bielefeld University)

terrà un seminario dal titolo

CALCULUS, STOCHASTIC PROCESSES AND GEOMETRY WITHOUT SMOOTHNESS

Abstract:

The talk deals with analysis and stochastic processes on fully singular spaces (i.e. singular at every or almost every point). In the first part we give a brief introduction to the subject which was started in the late eighties and early nineties by Goldstein, Kusuoka, Barlow, Bass, Kigami and others and is now referred to as 'Analysis on fractals'. Markov processes and their energy functionals (Dirichlet forms) play a key role. In the second part we explain some interrelations between stochastic analysis and items of differential geometry, point out some recent results and applications.

Tutti gli interessati sono invitati a partecipare.
