GLobal C1,α Nash-Kuiper theorems

Speaker:Cao Wentao
Schedule: Mon & Wed 15:20-16:55, 2019-11-25 ~ 12-4
Venue:Conference Room 1, Jin Chun Yuan West Bldg.

Description

I will first take about 45 minutes to talk about the background of isometric embedding and outline of my 6-hour talks about our work on global   Nash-Kuiper theorems and Monge-Ampere equation.
Then I will take the rest time to give the presentation about the celebrated Nash-Kuiper theorem and its proof.

Prerequisite

Basic theory about Rieman manifold, PDE, and functional analysis
