MiS Preprint Repository
We have decided to discontinue the publication of preprints on our preprint server end of 2024. The publication culture within mathematics has changed so much due to the rise of repositories such as ArXiV (www.arxiv.org) that we are encouraging all institute members to make their preprints available there. An institute's repository in its previous form is, therefore, unnecessary. The preprints published to date will remain available here, but we will not add any new preprints here.
Studying nonlinear pde by geometry in matrix space
Bernd Kirchheim, Stefan Müller and Vladimír ŠverákAbstract
We outline an approach to study the properties of nonlinear partial differential equations through the geometric properties of a set in the space of
This work draws heavily on Tartar's work on oscillations in nonlinear pde and compensated compactness and on Gromov's work on partial differential relations and convex integration. We point out some recent successes of this approach and outline a number of open problems, most of which seem to require a better geometric understanding of the different convexity notions.
