The NLS and its Gibbs measure | Department of Mathematics

Rademacher Lectures

Wednesday, November 6, 2019 - 3:30pm

Gigliola Staffilani

Massachusetts Institute of Technology

Location

University of Pennsylvania

A2 DRL

Tea will be served at 3:00pm in the Mathematics department lounge, 4E17 DRL

In this lecture I will present a probabilistic approach initiated by Bourgain to answer a question posed by Lebowitz-Rose-Speer [1989], that views the 2D periodic NLS as an infinite Hamiltonian system with its statistical ensemble.

How to get to Penn's Mathematics Department

Maps and Directions

We are about a 15 minute walk from the main 30th Street Station and 5 minutes from the University City Rail Station at 32nd and Spruce (=South Street & Convention Avenue). Coming from the airport by train (about 15 minutes): the University City Rail Station is the second stop after you leave the airport.

If you drive, the most convenient public parking is in the pay lot whose entrance is on 34th Street between Market and Chestnut Streets.
