Title: The Concentration Compactness/Rigidity Method for Critical Dispersive\r\nand Wave Equations
Speaker: Professor Carlos Kenig

Brief Description:
Special Note:
Abstract:

In a series of joint works with F.Merle, we have developed a method to study the global existence and scattering of solutions to nonlinear dispersive and wave equations. In this lecture I will describe the method and some of its applications to non-linear Schrodinger equations, non-linear wave equations, corotational wave maps into the sphere and radial Yang-Mills in 4 dimensions, all in critical spaces.
