Über Operator adaptierte Hardy Räume
In 2005 haben Duong et al. zum ersten Mal Operator adaptierte Hardy Räume eingeführt, um die schönen Eigenschaften, die die klassischen Hardy Räume mit dem Laplace Operator verbinden, auf allgemeinere Operatoren zu übertragen. In diesem Vortrag betrachten wir sektorielle Operatoren
auf
, wobei
ein Raum von homogenen Typ ist, die einen beschränkten holomorphen Funktionalkalkül auf
haben und deren Wärmeleitungshalbgruppe,
, Davies-Gaffney Abschätzungen erfüllt. Nach einem kurzen Ausflug in die von Coifman, Meyer und Stein eingeführten Tent spaces, werden wir uns den Operator adaptierten Hardy Räumen
zuwenden. Für
definieren wir diese dann auf verschiedene Weisen und werden sehen, dass die verschiedenen Definitionen äquivalent sind. Ähnlich zu den klassischen Hardy Räumen werden wir zuletzt zeigen, dass die zu
assoziierte Riesz Transformation beschränkt von

Quasilinear Maxwell Equations with Anisotropic Material Laws
We consider Maxwell equations with pointwise, fully anisotropic material laws. The characteristic surface is given by the Fresnel surface, which contains conical singularities. We prove Strichartz estimates for Hölder-continuous coefficients, which allows us to solve quasilinear Maxwell equations in the fully anisotropic case for rough initial data.

An invitation to the regularity of maximal functions
The Hardy–Littlewood maximal inequality bounds maximal functions on Lebesgue spaces, but it does not reveal much about the behaviour of their gradients. Following a 1997 paper of Kinnunen, an area of research has developed that is concerned with the behaviour of maximal functions on Sobolev spaces. In this talk, we give an overview of this theory and use plenty of examples to illustrate its key features. We also present some recent results and open questions.

Strichartz and dispersive estimates for equations with structured Lipschitz coefficients
We shall discuss Strichartz estimates for both Schrödinger and wave equations with structured Lipschitz coefficients. The arguments are based on Phillips calculus, which allows to deduce dispersive estimates from the constant coefficient case. For fixed time
estimates we require a more refined wave packet analysis.

Local wellposedness of Maxwell systems with scalar-type retarded material laws
In the first part of the talk, local wellposedness of an abstract retarded evolution equation is studied using the concept of a mild solution and Banach's fixed point theorem. The second part is an application to Maxwell equations in the context of a model from nonlinear optics.

Strichartz estimates for Maxwell equations on domains with perfectly conducting boundary conditions
We consider Maxwell equations on a domain with perfectly conducting boundary conditions in isotropic media. In the charge-free case we recover Strichartz estimates due to Blair-Smith-Sogge for wave equations on domains. We shall also consider the quasilinear case of the Kerr nonlinearity, in which case we recover the Strichartz estimates and well-posedness results from Euclidean space. This is joint work with Nicolas Burq (Universite Paris-Sud).

Almost sure scattering for the energy-critical cubic nonlinear Schrödinger equation with supercritical data
The local and global wellposedness theory of nonlinear dispersive equations with randomized data has attracted a lot of interest over the last years. In particular in the scaling-supercritical regime, where a deterministic wellposedness theory fails, randomization has become an important tool to study the generic behaviour of solutions.
In this talk we study the energy-critical NLS on
with supercritical initial data. We present a randomization based on a unit-scale decomposition in frequency space, a decomposition in the angular variable, and a unit-scale decomposition in physical space. We then discuss the resulting (almost surely) improved space-time estimates for solutions of the linear Schrödinger equation with randomized data and how these estimates yield almost sure scattering for the energy-critical cubic NLS.

Exponential Decay of the quasilinear Maxwell system due to surface conductivity
We consider a quasilinear Maxwell system on a bounded domain with absorbing boundary conditions and derive an estimate for the normal traces of the electric and magnetic field. This allows us to strengthen a result on exponential decay for small initial data.

A Fourier Integrator for the cubic Schrödinger equation at
regularity
In this talk I will present the topic of my master thesis which is based on a paper by Ostermann, Rousset and Schratz. They introduced a new exponential-type time integration method for the cubic Schrödinger equation. While only assuming
regularity of the solution,
-Convergence with order strictly larger than 1/2 was shown. An important ingredient in this context are discrete-time Strichartz estimates.

Resolvent estimates for time-harmonic Maxwell's equations
We prove resolvent estimates for time-harmonic Maxwell's equations in
-spaces with pointwise, spatially homogeneous, and possibly anisotropic material laws. These allow for the proofs of Limiting Absorption Principles and construction of solutions. In the fully anisotropic case, which is joint work with Rainer Mandel, the construction relies on new Bochner-Riesz estimates with negative index for non-elliptic surfaces.

Time integration of Maxwell equations with low regularity
The Peaceman-Rachford alternating direction implicit (ADI) scheme is very attractive for the time discretization of linear Maxwell equations on cuboids. Indeed, it is numerically stable and has optimal linear complexity. During the error analysis, it however turns out that the accuracy of the scheme heavily depends on the regularity of the solution of the Maxwell equations.
In the talk, we study linear time-dependent Maxwell equations on a heterogeneous cuboid, modelling a rectangular waveguide. The medium is assumed to consist of several small subcuboids with different material properties. Here the solution of the Maxwell equations is not
-regular. We hence construct a new directional splitting scheme for the time discretization, and we provide a rigorous time-discrete error estimate for the scheme in
.

Schrödinger operators with complex potentials
I will report on recent progress concerning eigenvalues of Schrödinger operators with complex potentials. We are interested in the magnitude and distribution of eigenvalues, and we seek bounds that only depend on an
norm of the potential.
These questions are well understood for real potentials, but completely new phenomena arise for complex potentials. I will explain how techniques from harmonic analysis, particularly those related to Fourier restriction theory, can be used to prove upper and lower bounds. We will also discuss some open problems. The talk is based on recent joint work with Sabine Bögli (Durham).

Eigenvalue bounds and spectral stability of Lamé operator with complex potential
In this talk I will show how to get quantitative bounds on the location of eigenvalues, both discrete and embedded, of the non-self-adjoint Lamé operator of elasticity in terms of suitable norms of the potential. In order to do that we will use a nowadays well-oiled machinery based on the use of the Birman-Schwinger principle together with suitable uniform resolvent estimates. To emphasise the challenging feature of problems involving non-self-adjoint operators, we will show how, in the self-adjoint framework, such spectral enclosures are easily obtained as a consequence of the variational characterisation of the spectrum (no-longer available in a complex-valued context) and Sobolev inequalities.
The talk is based on the following two works:

Duality for outer
spaces and relation to tent spaces
The theory of
spaces for outer measures, or outer
spaces, was introduced by Do and Thiele to encode the proof of boundedness of certain multilinear operators in a streamlined argument. Therefore, it was developed in the direction of the real interpolation features, e.g. Hölder's inequality and Marcinkiewicz interpolation, while other questions remained untouched. For example, whether the outer
quasi-norms are equivalent to norms and satisfy any reasonable (Köthe) duality property.
In this talk, we will answer these questions, with a particular focus on two settings in the upper half plane
and in the upper half space
that are relevant in harmonic analysis. This allows us to clarify the relation between the outer
spaces and the tent spaces introduced by Coifman, Meyer and Stein, and to get a glimpse at the use of the outer
machinery in the proof of boundedness of multilinear operators mentioned above.

Large sets without Fourier restriction theorems
Fourier restriction inequalities associated to submanifolds form a major area of research in harmonic analysis and are connected to problems in many other fields. Around 25 years ago, Mockenhaupt and Mitsis showed that the restriction of the Fourier transform to a fractal (instead of a submanifold) can also behave interestingly. But the class of fractals is vast and necessary conditions for restriction inequalities are not well understood. In this direction, I will show that Fourier restriction sets avoid a certain universal set of full Hausdorff dimension.

Hardy's inequality associated with orthogonal expansions
Let
be a measure space, where
and
is doubling, and choose an orthonormal basis
in
. Hardy’s inequality on
,
, associated with
has the following form
where
, the symbol
stands for the inner product in
, and
denotes an appropriate Hardy space. Here
is a positive number referred to as the admissible exponent.
I will discuss a method of proving Hardy’s inequality for a large class of orthogonal bases, which I established in my PhD thesis. It relies on study of the corresponding semigroup (usually heat or Poisson semigroup). The strength of this method is evidenced by its generality and sharpness. This means that it can be applied in most (if not all) of the classical systems (e.q. Hermite, Laguerre, Jacobi) and it leads to the smallest possible admissible exponent.
If there is time left, I will mention my other projects, both finished and ongoing.

Continuity properties of semigroups in real interpolation spaces
Starting from a bi-continuous semigroup (which might actually be strongly continuous) in a Banach space
we investigate continuity properties of the semigroup that is induced in real interpolation spaces between
and the domain
of the generator. Of particular interest is the case with second index infinity. We obtain topologies with respect to which the induced semigroup is bi-continuous, among them topologies induced by a variety of norms, and indicate applications.

On off-diagonal behavior of the generalized Stokes operator
Let
denote a second-order elliptic operator in divergence form and let
denote the corresponding strongly continuous heat semigroup on
. If
denote measurable sets with
and if
is supported in
, then by the strong continuity of the semigroup, one finds that
An estimate that quantifies the convergence rate is often viewed as an off-diagonal estimate and it is well-known, that heat semigroups satisfy the following type of off-diagonal decay
In this talk, we study off-diagonal behavior of the generalized Stokes semigroup
that is generated on
by the generalized Stokes operator with bounded measurable coefficients
, formally given by
In contrast to the elliptic operator
, the operator
exhibits a non-local behavior due to the presence of the pressure function
. This non-locality affects the non-local behavior of the generalized Stokes semigroup
and it is not clear how fast the support of a divergence free vector field
that is supported in a set
is smeared out. In this talk, first results in this direction are presented. We further discuss how possible optimal estimates could look like and try to pinpoint what has to be improved in the existing proof.

The Control Problem for the heat equation on rectangular domains
We study the internal controllability of the heat equation on unbounded rectangular domains, for example the whole space, the half-space or the infinite strip, where the control set is a thick subset, meaning that it is well-distributed in the domain. We show that thickness is a sufficient condition for null-controllability of the system and that it is also possible to provide a sharp bound for the control cost in terms of the geometric parameters of the problem. We will also show that thickness is necessary for null-controllability.

Local Hardy spaces on measured metric spaces with local doubling property
After a short recap of the euclidean situation, we will introduce local Hardy spaces
for
and
on more general measured metric spaces
satisfying only some mild geometric assumptions. It will turn out, similar to the euclidean case, that the dual space of
is the space of functions with (local) bounded mean oscillation to the parameters
and
, which we will denote by
. We will then show, that both the local Hardy spaces
and the spaces
are independent of the parameters
and
, and will therefore all be denoted by
and
respectively. We will then conclude, that for
the function space
is a complex interpolation space between
and
. Therefore, we get by duality, that for
the space
is an interpolation space between
and
. With that in mind, we will finally give some criteria under which linear Operators are bounded from
