Dear colleagues, we are happy to announce the hybrid - that is, in person with online streaming - talk of the (PMS)^2 series: Speaker: Luca Scarpa (Politecnico di Milano) Title: Variational methods for doubly nonlinear stochastic evolution equations. Abstract: We give an overview of some recent results for doubly nonlinear stochastic evolution equations in Hilbert spaces. In the first part of the talk we introduce the prototypes of the problems in consideration and we discuss the main existence results.Secondly, we provide alternative proofs of existence which rely on convex minimisation techniques, such as the Weighted-Energy-Dissipation (WED) and the Energy-Dissipation principles (EDP). Eventually, we discuss some current open problems, focusing above all on the direction of uniqueness-by-noise for doubly nonlinear evolutions. The works presented in the talk are based on joint collaborations with Prof. Ulisse Stefanelli (University of Vienna, Austria). Date and time: Monday November 15, 14:30-15:30 (Rome time zone). Place: Aula Seminari - III piano (third floor), Dipartimento di Matematica, Politecnico di Milano, Piazza Leonardo da Vinci, 32 – 20133 Milano - Ed. 14 “Nave” Campus Bonardi. (Accesso pedonale da: Via A.M. Ampère, 2 - Milano, Via E. Bonardi, 9 - Milano, Via G. Ponzio, 31 - Milano).
