| Title: | Laplacian and dynamics in Finsler geometry |
| Seminar: | Center for Dynamics and Geometry Seminar |
| Speaker: | Thomas Barthelmé, Penn State |
| Abstract: |
| In Riemannian geometry, there are a lot of links between the geometry and dynamics of a metric and the Laplace-Beltrami operator.
In this talk, I will present Finsler geometry, a generalisation of Riemannian geometry, and introduce a well-suited Laplacian operator. I will then focus on negatively curve manifolds and give some results and questions on the relationships between geometry and Laplacian. |
