Event Details
Seminario de Geometría
Conferenciante: Sebastiano Nicolussi Golo
Centro de procedencia: University of Trento (Italy) and University of Jyvaskyla (Finland)
Fecha y hora: Viernes 3 de noviembre de 2017, 11:30
Lugar: Seminario 2ª planta IEMath-GR
Título: Minimal surfaces in the Heisenberg group
Abstract: The Heisenberg group has a well studied sub-Riemannian structure. Geometric measure theory in the sub-Riemannian setting is still in development and several fundamental questions are still open. One reason is that sets of finite sub-Riemannian perimeter may have fractal behaviours. I will present the state of art (in my knowledge) of the study of minimal surfaces in this setting, with some recent results about contact variations of the area functional.
