Research

• Variational calculus, gradient flows
• Connections between analysis and stochastics
• The link between large deviations and gradient flows
• Pattern formation and pattern evolution

• Saeed Masroor (PhD),
• Mikola Schlottke (PhD),

• Alberto Montefusco
• Giovanni Comi

Here is a video of Giovanni Bonaschi explaining one of our papers, Quadratic and rate-independent limits for a large-deviations functional:

And here is another one, this time for a different audience and in Dutch:
