Workshop I: Aspects of Optimal Transport in Geometry and Calculus of Variations
Overview
This workshop will be devoted to the interplay between the theory of optimal transport, geometrical inequalities and nonlinear partial differential equations. Specific topics will include optimization and evolution problems arising in geometry, urban planning, mathematical biology, kinetic theory, and fluid flows. A major emphasis will be pinpointing new research directions and applications.
