Mathematical Physics Seminar

Supercritical Wave Equations

Avy Soffer, Rutgers University

Location:  HILL 705
Date & time: Thursday, 16 November 2017 at 12:00PM - 1:00PM

Abstract: I will review the problem of Global existence for dispersive equations, in particular, supercritical equations. These equations which play a fundamental role in science, have been , and remain a major challenge in the field of Partial Differential Equations. They come in various forms, derived from Geometry, General Relativity, Fluid Dynamics , Field Theory. I present a new approach to study the asymptotic behavior of wave equations, supercritical and others,  and construct global solutions with large initial data.I will then describe current extensions to Nonlinear Schroedinger Equations. 

THERE WILL BE A BROWN BAG LUNCH FROM 1-2PM!
