Dear Colleagues,

With this, I would like to advertise the following talk by Max Sauerbrey (MPI Leipzig), which will be held at Sapienza University of Rome in "Sala di Consiglio" at *14:00* on *Tuesday*, *May 20th*.

Kind regards, Antonio Agresti

*Max Sauerbrey* (Max Planck Institute, Leipzig) *Title:* Solution theory for the stochastic thin film equation with spatially colored noise *Abstract:* We present recent results on the local in time well-posedness of stochastic thin-film equations driven by Gaussian noise, which is white in time and colored in space, with strictly positive initial data. After introducing the underlying model, we state the local well-posedness and instantaneous regularization result in any space dimension, including corresponding blow-up criteria. Then we comment on the one-dimensional situation in which global in time well-posedness can be obtained under consideration of intermolecular van der Waals forces between the fluid and the substrate. The talk is based on joint work with Antonio Agresti: https://arxiv.org/abs/2403.12652.
