Applied Math Seminar – Aaron Yip, Purdue University

Title: Dynamics on Inhomogeneous Medium Abstract: By means of two examples: (i) an ODE for the dynamics of a particle and (ii) a PDE for the motion by mean curvature of a surface, I will discuss some results, questions and recent attempts in the study of dynamical equations in inhomogeneous environment.

Analysis Seminar – Kabe Moen (University of Alabama)

346 Gordon Palmer Hall 505 Hackberry Lane, Tuscaloosa, AL, United States

Title: Connections between commutators and weighted inequalities Abstract: I will cover the Cauchy integral approach to the boundedness of commutators of Calderon-Zygmund operators and BMO functions.  I spoke about this approach and proved the basic commutator theorem of Coifman-Rochberg-Weiss in the fall of 2017.  In this talk I will go over some powerful extensions and

Title: Weak Solutions of Mean Field Game Master Equations. Abstract: In this talk we study master equations arising from mean field game problems, under the crucial monotonicity conditions. Classical solutions of such equations require very strong technical conditions. Moreover, unlike the master equations arising from mean field control problems, the mean field game master equations are

Title:  The covering method: an intuitive approach to the computation of p-divisibility of exponential sums   Abstract:  Exponential sums over finite fields are an important tool for solving mathematical problems and have applications to many other areas. However, some of the methods and proofs of the results are non-elementary.  The main purpose of this talk

Analysis Seminar – Chang Yu, University of Florida

Title: Global solutions of the compressible Navier-Stokes equations Abstract : In this talk, I will talk about the existence of global weak solutions for the compressible Navier-Stokes equations, in particular, the viscosity coefficients depend on the density. Our main contribution is to further develop renormalized techniques so that the Mellet-Vasseur type inequality is not necessary for

Title: Phase field method for geometric moving interface problems and their numerical approximations Abstract:  In this talk I shall first give a brief introduction to the phase field method for general geometric moving interface problems. The focus will be on presenting its idea, formulation,and relationship to other methods for moving interface problems such as the

Title: Bergman and Szego projections, Extremal Problems, and Square Functions Abstract: We study estimates for Hardy space norms of analytic projections. We first find a sufficient condition for the Bergman projection of a function in the unit disc to belong to the Hardy space $H^p$ for $1 < p < \infty$. We apply the result to prove

Title: The Fractional Porous Medium Equation on Manifolds with Conic Singularities Abstract: Due to the need to model long range diffusive interaction, during the last decade there has been a growing interest in considering diffusion equations involving non-local operators, e.g. the fractional powers of differential operators. In this talk, I will report some recent work
