Nonlinear Gibbs measures and quantum field theory

(Reading seminar Summer 2024)

Phan Thành Nam, Moodle (ID: 33922, pass: Gibbs%24)

General Information

Description: The nonlinear Gibbs measure has played a central role in constructive quantum field theory in the 1970s, and it has become a popular tool to study nonlinear dispersive equations with low-regular data as well as nonlinear stochastic PDEs with noise. In this seminar, we will discuss the construction of the nonlinear Gibbs measure for the cubic nonlinear Schrödinger equation and the connection to interacting Bose gases at high temperature.

Audience : Bachelor and Master students of Mathematics.

Credits: 3 ECTS.

Language: English.

Time and place: Friday, 14:15-16:00, B251.
