Prof. Fabio Cipriani
(Politecnico di Milano)

will hold 2 seminars at SISSA as follows:

1.

Title: Dirichlet forms and Noncommutative Geometry

Abstract. The seminar is intended to illustrate the geometrical aspects 
underlying the notion of energy.

Examples will include:

i)  Markovian semigroups and Dirichlet forms on the Clifford algebra of 
a Riemannian manifold and on the algebras
of observables in quantum statistical mechanics;

ii)  derivations on algebras of dynamical systems, others appearing in 
free probability and in rigidity-deformation theory.

Thu. 17 december at 15.30 in lecture room G (ground floor)


2.

Title: The geometry of the Sierpinski gasket

Abstract. The purpose of the seminar is to show the construction of non 
trivial Fredholm modules on self-similar fractal spaces and
Dirac operators on the gasket based on Kigami harmonic structures and 
associated Dirichlet forms.

Fri. 18 december at 15.00 in lecture room C (lower ground floor)
