VAPS51:"Long-range phase transitions"

Speaker: Serena Dipierro, University of Western Australia
Abstract: Phase transitions are a classical topic of investigation. They represent a complex phenomenon which needs to be attacked with different methodologies and different perspectives. I will discuss some rigidity and symmetry results for a long-range phase coexistence equation, their close relation with surfaces of minimal perimeter and a famous conjecture by Ennio De Giorgi.
