Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

The goal of this seminar is to build up working knowledge for research in geometric analysis. For a large part of the seminar, we will follow the book »Geometric Analysis« by Peter Li, which is available online through the university catalogue. In particular, we will cover the following topics from Li's book.

- Bochner-Weitzenböck formulas
- Poincare inequality and the first eigenvalue
- Gradient estimate and Harnack inequality
- Mean value inequality
- Reilly's formula and applications
- Isoperimetric inequalities and Sobolev inequalities
- Linear growth harmonic functions
- Polynomial growth harmonic functions
- L^q harmonic functions

Students will give presentations on these topics and answer related questions of their peers and the seminar conveners. Occasionally, students will be asked to submit written solutions to problems provided by the conveners.

Prerequisite for participation in this course is a working knowledge of Riemannian Geometry on the level of 250070 VO Riemannian Geometry (2023W).

Assessment and permitted materials

- 2-3 45-minute-presentations on the course material
- answering questions on their presentations by their peers and the course conveners
- cross-reading of each chapter before its presentation; preparation of thought-out questions
