Analysis on Metric Spaces Seminar 2025 | Recent development in bilinear rough singular integrals, Professor Bae Jun Park Sungkyunkwan University, Suwon, South Korea
Abstract:
In this talk we will study the Lp1 × Lp2 → Lp boundedness for bilinear rough singular integral operators LΩ associated with Ω ∈ L(log L)α(S2n−1) with mean value zero. We will first review classical linear singular integrals and then study how the results have been extended and developed in the bilinear setting, presenting the most recent results. If time permits, general multilinear problems will be also discussed

Spontaneous Beach Cleaning Week [11-18 January]
Tancha beach is in a really sad state after the stormy seas washing up lots of trash. If you are looking for an excuse to be outdoors, please consider going to Tancha to help clean the shore! You can always go anytime you like, for as long or as short as you like, just leave what you find near the carpark at the bottom of the OIST hill! Spontaneous cleaning without previous planning with Onna Village Office is fine, just tell the resource centre afterwards where you left your collection! If you don't have beach cleaning bags to hand you can also use normal garbage bags. And if you don't have any bags handy, you can always pick up the large floats and leave those off the beach (especially the polystyrene ones). Every little bit helps! Spread the word!
