Sharp Rates of Convergence to Singular SPDEs

Rhys Steele
(Max Planck Institute for Mathematics in the Sciences)
Abstract

For subcritical singular SPDEs, solutions are typically exhibited as the limit of solutions of regularised and renormalised PDEs as the regularisation scale goes to 0. Existing general solution theories typically yield a very small exponent for the rate of convergence. This suggests the question of identifying the sharpest possible rate of convergence that can be achieved in some space of distributions. 

In this talk, I will discuss recent work with Máté Gerencsér and Yueh-Sheng Hsu in which we identify the sharp rate of convergence in the case of the KPZ equation.

Venki Ramakrishnan (University of Cambridge) - Why We Die: The New Science of Ageing and the Quest for Immortality

In this lecture Venki Ramakrishnan will discuss with Marcus du Sautoy the fundamental facts and promising approaches to combat ageing, as well as the social and ethical consequences of extending life.

Venki Ramakrishnan works in the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology in Cambridge. He shared the 2009 Nobel Prize in Chemistry.
