Mini-Workshop: Nonlocal Analysis and the Geometry of Embeddings (hybrid meeting)
Workshop
2048cPeriod
22 Nov - 28 Nov 2020Abstract
Both self-avoidance and self-contact of geometric objects can be modeled
using repulsive energies
that separate isotopy classes.
Giving rise to nonlocal operators, they are interesting objects in their own right.
Moreover, their analytical structure allows for devising
numerical schemes enjoying robust features such as
energy stability.
This workshop aimed at discussing recent trends in this
matter, including potential applications to modeling.
