Title: Preserving Nature's Treasures: Biodiversity Conservation, Species Discoveries, and World Heritage Nomination in Mindanao

By Prof. Dr. Alma B. Mohagan from Central Mindanao University in Philippines

Analysis on Metric Spaces Seminar 2025 Speaker: Bae Jun Park, Sungkyunkwan University, Suwon, South Korea Title: Recent development in bilinear rough singular integrals

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
