Goals
The workshop strives to bring together researchers from infinite-dimensional Lie theory and researchers in related areas of functional analysis, to familiarize each other with their ways of thinking, recent progress and typical problems.
To assist these goals, there will be four introductory mini-courses, as well as several invited talks of an expository or survey character.
The programme is also apt to give an initiation to infinite-dimensional calculus and infinite-dimensional Lie groups, and we hope that many PhD-students (and mature researchers from neighbouring areas) will attend.
Topics covered
- infinite-dimensional Lie groups
- infinite-dimensional manifolds and geometry
- differential calculus in locally convex spaces (e.g., inverse and implicit function theorems; differentiability properties of non-linear mappings between spaces of interest like spaces of smooth or analytic functions, spaces of germs, weighted function spaces, Sobolev spaces)
- infinite-dimensional holomorphy and real analyticity
- properties of locally convex direct limits
- applications to PDEs (notably from fluid mechanics)
