Titles of Main Lectures

Boguslaw Zegarlinski
Linear and nonlinear problems in infinite dimensions
  1. Gradient bounds, monotone functionals and ergodicity [for generators with Hormander or Levy principal part]
  2. Coercive and isoperimetric functional inequalities, and how to prove them, with some applications.
  3. Entropy bounds for super and sub Gaussian distributions, and analysis on measure spaces. Ergodicity.
  4. Basic nonlinear probability [nonlinear jump type dynamics, entropy switch.]
Imre Leader
Isoperimetric inequalities
Francois Bolley
Mean field limits of stochastic interacting particle systems
David Kribs
Quantum information: a brief operator theoretic introduction
