Abstrakt
In this talk, we aim to use minimal assumptions to arrive at the relevance of stochastic processes to describe nature on a particle-scale. That is, we start with the foundation of a physical theory and introduce assumptions that are shared by classical and quantum mechanical theory. Then, pointing out the single difference between both theories from the theoretical point of view, I present how we arrive at the setting of a quantum particle in space. Generalizing to multiple particles, this is the setting used to describe the Bose gas which will serve as my main illustration. At this point, we will only have seen the theory from the functional analysis point of view and the next step is rewriting one particular expression with the help of stochastic processes which is often referred to as 'Feynman--Kac formula'. Working out the relevance of rewritten expression for the theory we have derived so far, we have derived a complete picture starting at foundations of a physical theory and culminating on the relevance of stochastic processes to study this theory.

On stochastic homogenisation of integral functionals and differential operators

Weierstraß-Institut, Mohrenstr. 39, 10117 Berlin, 4. Etage, Raum: 405/406
Abstrakt
In this talk we look into a stochastic homogenisation result for integral functionals which, in the deformation variable, depend on a linear differential operator of order one. Assuming stationarity of the random intergrands in conjunction with with the Hörmander ellipticity condition on the operator, we show existence of a homogenised random integral functional. With the aid of Akcloglu-Krengel's ergodicity theorem we further characterise the limiting integrand in terms of an asymptotic cell formula. This result extends the classical qualitative result of Dal Maso and Modica for the full gradient case.

Nonlocal analysis of energies in micromagnetics

Weierstraß-Institut, Hausvogteiplatz 5-7, 10117 Berlin, R411
Abstrakt
In this talk we provide conditions in order to formally justify a nonlocal analysis of energies in Micromagnetics. Specifically, we first consider a nonlocalto-local approximation of exchange energy functionals, extending the wellknown Bourgain--Brezis--Mironescu formula to encompass the scenario where antisymmetric contributions are encoded. The key points are a pointwise convergence result and a Gamma-convergence argument. After the nonlocal approximation, we investigate the existence and qualitative properties of minimizers, focusing on the competition between a nonlocal symmetric exchange interaction, which penalizes spatial variations in magnetization, and a magnetostatic self-energy term that accounts for long-range dipolar interactions. For spherical domains, we generalize Brown's fundamental results by identifying critical radii such that uniform magnetizations are preferable for the small-body regime, while non-uniform magnetization configurations become dominant in the large-body regime. This is joint work with E. Davoli, G. Di Fratta and L. Lombardini.

Weierstraß-Institut, Mohrenstr. 39, 10117 Berlin, 4. Etage, Raum: 405/406
Abstrakt
In this talk I will show that every solution of a KdV-Burgers--Sivashinsky type equation blows up in the energy space, backward in time, provided the solution does not belong to the global attractor. This is a phenomenon contrast to the backward behavior of the 2D Navier--Stokes equations, subject to periodic boundary condition, studied by Constantin, Foias, Kukavica and Majda, but analogous to the backward behavior of the Kuramoto--Sivashinsky equation discovered by Kukavica and Malcok. I will also discuss the backward behavior of solutions to the damped driven nonlinear Schrödinger equation, the complex Ginzburg--Landau equation, and the hyperviscous Navier--Stokes equations. In addition, I will provide some physical interpretation of various backward behaviors of several perturbations of the KdV equation by studying explicit cnoidal wave solutions. Furthermore, I will discuss the connection between the backward behavior and the energy spectra of the solutions. The study of backward behavior of dissipative evolution equations is motivated by a conjecture of Bardos and Tartar which states that the solution operator of the two-dimensional Navier--Stokes equations maps the phase space into a dense subset in this space.

Centered Subgraph Counts in Dense Random Graphs

Weierstraß-Institut, Mohrenstr. 39, 10117 Berlin, 4. Etage, Raum: 405/406
Abstrakt
Complex networks appear in many fields, from social media to biology, and understanding their structure often boils down to studying how frequently small subgraphs (such as triangles or squares) appear. In this talk, I will introduce the idea of centered subgraph counts: a way of measuring subgraph occurrences that corrects for the dependence that we observe among regular subgraph counts. By focusing on these centered counts, we can describe and quantify the natural 'fluctuations' in dense random networks via tools first developed by Janson and Nowicki in the study of generalised U-statistics in the 90s. I will explain how these theoretical results lead to practical methods for assessing how well a given network fits a chosen statistical model--often referred to as a goodness-of-fit analysis.
