Abstract

The aims of the 2019 workshop Heat Kernels, Stochastic Processes and Functional Inequalities were: (a) to provide a forum to review recent progresses in a wide array of areas of analysis (elliptic, subelliptic and parabolic differential equations, transport, functional inequalities), geometry (Riemannian and sub-Riemannian geometries, metric measure spaces, geometric analysis and curvature), and probability (Brownian motion, Dirichlet spaces, stochastic calculus and random media) that have natural common interests, and (b) to foster, encourage and develop further interactions and cross-fertilization between these different directions of research.
