Colloquio del Dipartimento di Matematica
----------------------------------------------------------------------
when: Wednesday, May 18, at 4 pm
where: Dipartimento di Matematica, Aula Magna
speaker: Franck Barthe (Universitè Paul Sabatier, Toulouse)
title: Recent developments around the Brunn-Minkowski inequality
tentative abstract: The aim of this lecture is to present a few recent
developments around the classical Brunn-Minkowski inequality on the
volume of sum-sets. A classical tool of Euclidean geometry, it has
influenced several other topics. We will present proofs, extensions
and applications of the inequalities, thus showing connections with
convex geometry, harmonic analysis, optimal transport, the Heat
equation, or concentration of probability measures.
