Intensive Period on ?Evolution Problems in Fracture Mechanics?
Monday 4 mar 2013 -- Friday 26 apr 2013
SISSA, Trieste
During the months March-April 2013 an intensive period on 

?Evolution Problems in Fracture Mechanics?

will take place at SISSA in Trieste in the framework of the ERC Advanced Grant ?Quasistatic and Dynamic Evolution Problems in Plasticity and Fracture?.

The activities will be organized around the following minicourses, with daily lectures.

Christopher J. Larsen, 4-8 March 2013:
Mathematical issues in globally minimizing, locally minimizing, and dynamic fracture evolutions

Gianpietro Del Piero, 11-15 March 2013:
The variational approach to fracture and other inelastic phenomena

Gilles Francfort, 3-13 April 2013:
Variational evolution problems in plasticity

Jay R. Walton, 15-19 April 2013:
A theory of fracture incorporating interfacial mechanics

Jean-Jacques Marigo, 22-26 April 2013:
Gradient damage models and their use in fracture mechanics

Talks on related subjects will be given by the participants and by other visitors. 

To participate in this activity, please contact Gianni Dal Maso (dalmaso at sissa.it).

The regularity problem for sub-Riemannian geodesics
Roberto Monti (Universit? di Padova)

Abstract. After a short introduction on sub-Riemannian geodesics, we shall present some recent results on the best regularity known
for length minimizing curves. We shall try to explain the reasons why the problem is still unsolved after more than 30 years.


--- Modified Papers ---

* Ambrosio, Gigli, Savar?: Metric measure spaces with Riemannian Ricci curvature bounded from below

* Schmidt: ${\rm W}^{2,1+\varepsilon}$ estimates for the Monge-Amp?re equation
