Oktober 2007
Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren,
Die ÖAW-Vortragsreihe
> > Johann Radon Lectures 2007/2008 <<
widmet sich aktuellen Themen der angewandten Mathematik.
Der erste Vortrag findet am 17. Oktober 2007 im Festsaal der ÖAW, 1010 Wien, Dr.
Ignaz Seipel-Platz 2 statt.
Der französische Mathematiker Pierre-Louis Lions (Collège de France, Paris)
spricht zum Thema
> > Analysis, Models and Simulations <<
Der Vortrag wird sich Anwendungen der Mathematik in der Industrie widmen: Im
Mittelpunkt wird die numerische Simulation komplexer industrieller Systeme
stehen und die Rolle, die Partielle Differentialgleichungen dabei spielen.
Abstract:
In this talk, we shall first present several examples of numerical simulations
of complex industrial systems. All these simulations rely upon some mathematical
models involving Partial Differential Equations and we shall briefly explain the
nature, the history and the role of such equations. Then, some examples showing
the importance of the mathematical analysis (i.e. understanding) of those models
will be presented. And we shall conclude indicating a few trends and
perspectives.

"A duality theory for set-valued convex functions with
applications to set-valued convex risk measures"
Abstract:
Duality for extended real-valued convex functions is a well-studied,
even classical subject based on works of Fenchel, Moreau, Rockafellar,
among many others. A corresponding satisfying theory for functions
mapping into the power set of a partially ordered locally convex space
is still missing. Such a theory seems to be very desirable since it has
already been observed e.g. by Luc in 1989 that the dual of a convex
vector optimization problem 'is set-valued in nature'. Moreover, the
concept of convex set-valued risk measures has been defined recently in
financial mathematics which asks for a corresponding dual representation
theory.
We shall present a duality concept that is based on a new notion of
affine minorants for set-valued functions and show that almost every
concept (e.g. properness, sublinearity, conjugates, inf-convolution) and
result (e.g. biconjugation and Fenchel-Rockafellar duality theorems)
known in the scalar convex analysis can be established within the new
set-valued framework.
A special feature of the methodology is that proofs do not rely on the
corresponding scalar theory - as in almost every previous duality theory
for vector optimization problems. Finally, we shall show the theory at
work when applied to set-valued convex risk measures in order to give
dual representation results.
