Daniel Tataru: Low regularity and long time solutions in quasilinear dispersive flows The Abel Prize 2024-01-26 | Abstract: Both the study of low regularity solutions and the study of the long time dynamics for quasilinear pde's are challenging fundamental questions in dispersive flows. Usually these are considered separately, but recent research shows that it is instead natural to study them together. The talk will provide an overview of several new ideas an results in this direction, ranging from water waves and nonlinear wave equation to nonlinear Schroedinger flows. This is joint work with Mihaela Ifrim, and also in part with Albert Ai.Daniel Ioan Tătaru is a Romanian mathematician at University of California, Berkeley. This lecture was part of the bi-annual Abel Symposium.This year the title of the symposium was Partial Differential Equations waves, Nonlinearities and Nonlocalities.The symposium was funded by- The Norwegian Academy of Sciences and Letters via the Abel board and The Norwegian Mathematical Society- NTNU Norwegian University of Science and Technology- Research Council of Norway via the grant Waves and Nonlinear Phenomena- Trond Mohn Foundation
Enno Lenzmann: Turbulence in completely integrable PDEs: The Calogero-Moser derivative NLS The Abel Prize 2024-01-19 | Abstract: I will discuss a new type of a derivative nonlinear Schrödinger equation, which can be seen as a continuum version of completely integrable Calogero-Moser many-body systems in classical mechanics. The resulting NLS exhibits many intriguing features such as a Lax pair structure on Hardy spaces, L2-criticality, and turbulent solutions. In this talk, I will focus on dynamics of multi-soliton solutions, which exhibit an unbounded growth of Sobolev norms (turbulence). This is based on joint work with Patrick Gérard (Orsay).This lecture was part of the bi-annual Abel Symposium.This year the title of the symposium was Partial Differential Equations waves, Nonlinearities and Nonlocalities.The symposium was funded by- The Norwegian Academy of Sciences and Letters via the Abel board and The Norwegian Mathematical Society- NTNU Norwegian University of Science and Technology- Research Council of Norway via the grant Waves and Nonlinear Phenomena- Trond Mohn Foundation
A variational regularity theory for optimal transportation and its application to matching The Abel Prize 2024-01-12 | Abstract: A couple of years ago, with M. Goldman we devised a new approach to the regularity theory for Optimal Transportation that mimics De Giorgi's approach to the regularity theory of minimal surfaces in the sense that a harmonic approximation result is at its center: Under a non-dimensional smallness condition, the displacement is close to the gradient of a harmonic function.Probably the main advantage of this variational regularity theory over the one based on maximum principle — and attached to the name of Caffarelli — is that it does not require any regularity of the involved measures. Hence it can be applied to the popular matching problem, where it provides regularity on large scalesThis lecture was part of the bi-annual Abel Symposium.This year the title of the symposium was Partial Differential Equations waves, Nonlinearities and Nonlocalities.The symposium was funded by- The Norwegian Academy of Sciences and Letters via the Abel board and The Norwegian Mathematical Society- NTNU Norwegian University of Science and Technology- Research Council of Norway via the grant Waves and Nonlinear Phenomena- Trond Mohn Foundation
Gigliola Staffilani: Some recent developments in wave turbulence theory The Abel Prize 2024-01-05 | Abstract: In this talk I will present two different approaches in the study of wave turbulence theory. The first, introduced by Bourgain, consists in analyzing the long time behavior of high Sobolev norms for the defocusing, cubic NLS equation on 2D tori (periodic solutions). In this context I will emphasize how the rationality or irrationality of the torus affects the analysis. The second approach deals with the rigorous derivation of the 3-wave kinetic equation from a weakly nonlinear multidimensional KdV type equation.Gigliola Staffilani is an Italian-American mathematician who works as the Abby Rockefeller Mauze Professor of Mathematics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Her research concerns harmonic analysis and partial differential equations, including the Korteweg–de Vries equation and Schrödinger equation.This lecture was part of the bi-annual Abel Symposium.This year the title of the symposium was Partial Differential Equations waves, Nonlinearities and Nonlocalities.The symposium was funded by- The Norwegian Academy of Sciences and Letters via the Abel board and The Norwegian Mathematical Society- NTNU Norwegian University of Science and Technology- Research Council of Norway via the grant Waves and Nonlinear Phenomena- Trond Mohn Foundation
Jalal Shatah: Recent Advances in Wave Turbulence Theory and Practice The Abel Prize 2023-12-28 | Abstract: Wave Turbulence Theory is widely used across several areas of physics to describe the statistical behavior of dispersive waves. It was formulated throughout the twentieth century by Peierls, Hasselman and Zakharov. Central to this theory is the derivation of the Wave Kinetic Equation which describes energy cascades between waves. In recent years a rigorous mathematical proof of the derivation of the Wave Kinetic Equation and its range of applicability started to emerge, a feat that has taken a long time since the theory was first proposed. In this expository talk I will be discussing rigorous results and mathematical techniques that lead to proving the validity of the kinetic description of waves. I will also discuss the range of parameters where the kinetic description is valid.Jalal M. I. Shatah is a Silver Professor of Mathematics at Courant, New York University. His research focuses on the problem of global existence and asymptotic behavior of small solutions to nonlinear hyperbolic and dispersive equations.The YouTube description does not allow for correct formating.

Patrick Gérard: Explicit formula and zero dispersion limit for the Benjamin-Ono equation The Abel Prize 2023-12-21 | Abstract: I will show how the Lax pair structure of the Benjamin-Ono equation on the line leads to an explicit formula for general initial data in the Sobolev space H1. Applications to the zero-dispersion limit will be discussed.Patrick Gérard is a French mathematician interested in partial differential equations, in particular microlocal analysis, control theory and nonlinear dispersive equations in connection with the notion of weak turbulence.

Roman Shvydkoy: Generic alignment conjecture and the problem of emergence of collective behavior The Abel Prize 2023-12-14 | Abstract: Emergence is a phenomenon of formation of collective outcomes in systems where communication between agents has local range. For a wide range of applications, such as swarming behavior of animals or exchange of opinions between individuals, such outcomes result in a globally aligned state or congregation of aligned clusters. The classical result of Cucker and Smale states that alignment is unconditional in flocks that have global communication with non-integrable radial tails. Proving a similar statement for purely local interactions is a challenging mathematical problem. In this talk we will overview three programs of research directed on understanding the emergent phenomena: statistical approach to generic alignment for agent-based systems, kinetic approach based on relaxation and hypocoercivity, and hydrodynamic models incorporating a novel way of interaction based on topological communication.Roman Shvydkoy is a professor of mathematics at University of Illinois at Chicago. His research interests include fluid dynamics, Euler, Navier-Stokes systems; Non-local parabolic equations; Collective behavior, emergent dynamics, flocking; Turbulence, Onsager conjecture, convex integration, vanishing viscosity limit; Instability in ideal fluids, linearization method, WKB analysis, geometric optics; Spectral theory, pseudo-differential, harmonic and functional analysis.This lecture was part of the bi-annual Abel Symposium.This year the title of the symposium was Partial Differential Equations waves, Nonlinearities and Nonlocalities.The symposium was funded by- The Norwegian Academy of Sciences and Letters via the Abel board and The Norwegian Mathematical Society- NTNU Norwegian University of Science and Technology- Research Council of Norway via the grant Waves and Nonlinear Phenomena- Trond Mohn Foundation
Sijue Wu: The Quartic Integrability and Long Time Existence of Steep Water Waves in 2d The Abel Prize 2023-12-07 | Abstract: It is known since the work of Dyachenko & Zakharov in 1994 that for the weakly nonlinear 2d infinite depth water waves, there are no 3-wave interactions and all of the 4-wave interaction coefficients vanish on the resonant manifold. In this talk I will present a recent result that proves this partial integrability from a different angle.We construct a sequence of energy functionals Ej(t), directly in the physical space, that involves material derivatives of order j of the solutions for the 2d water wave equation, so that ddtEj(t) is quintic or higher order.We show that if some scaling invariant norm, and a norm involving one spatial derivative above the scaling of the initial data are of size no more than ε, then the lifespan of the solution for the 2d water wave equation is at least of order O(ε−3), and the solution remains as regular as the initial data during this time. If only the scaling invariant norm of the data is of size ε, then the lifespan of the solution is at least of order O(ε−5/2).Our long time existence results do not impose size restrictions on the slope of the initial interface and the magnitude of the initial velocity, they allow the interface to have arbitrary large steepnesses and initial velocities to have arbitrary large magnitudes.The YouTube description does not allow for correct formating.

We present some rigidity results (showing that certain stationary solutions must be either zonal or rotated zonal solutions) and some stability results of low-mode Rossby-Haurwitz stationary solutions. This is joint work with Pierre Germain (Courant Institute, New York).Adrian Constantin is a Romanian-Austrian mathematician who does research in the field of nonlinear partial differential equations.
