    Extractions: Calculus of Variations In 1904 the University of Chicago Press published Oskar Bolza 's Lectures on the Calculus of Variations. We give below the Preface to the book:- The principal steps in the progress of the Calculus of Variations during the last thirty years may be characterized as follows: 1. A critical revision of the foundations and demonstrations of the older theory of the first and second variation according to the modern requirements of rigour, by Weierstrass, Erdmann, Du Bois-Reymond, Scheeffer, Schwarz, and others. The result of this revision was: a sharper formulation of the problems, rigorous proofs for the first three necessary conditions, and a rigorous proof of the sufficiency of these conditions for what is now called a "weak" extremum. 2. Weierstrass's extension of the theory of the, first and second variation to the case where the curves under consideration are given in parameter- representation. This was - in advance of great importance for all geometrical applications of the Calculus of Variations; for the older method implied - for geometrical problems - a rather artificial restriction. 3. Weierstrass's discovery of the fourth necessary condition and his sufficiency proof for a so-called "strong" extremum, which gave for the first time a complete solution, at least for the simplest type of problems, by means of an entirely new method based upon what is now known as Weierstrass's construction."

Minimization of functionals defined on classes of surfaces, depending on the area and the curvature of the surface. These functionals arise in the study of minimal surfaces, surfaces with prescribed mean curvature, Willmore's conjecture, non-linear shell theory, image segmentation and surface reconstruction. Methods of geometric measure theory, as Caccioppoli sets, BV functions, rectifiable currents and varifolds are used.

    Extractions: MPI MIS home Many problems in physics, biology, engineering are governed by a maximization or minimization principle (for example for energy, entropy, fitness, ...). The corresponding optimality conditions (called Euler-Lagrange equations) usually are Nonlinear Partial Differential Equations and one can apply pde methods to study the minimizers. It has become clear, however, that often much more powerful methods are available if one exploits the minimization principle directly. The corresponding branch of mathematics is called the calculus of variations (because originally the Euler-Lagrange equation was derived by studying small variations of supposed minimizer). One example for the power of minimization principle arises when one studies a family of minimization problems (e.g. posed on a sequence of increasingly thinner three-dimensional structures). There is a general theory due to DeGiorgi, called Gamma-convergence, which shows that there exists a limiting minimization problem. No similarly flexible notion is known on the level of the corresponding Euler-Lagrange equations. Our research projects address both fundamental problems in the calculus of variations and applications, e.g. in nonlinear elasticity. The study of

    Extractions: In recent years the optimal transportation problem of Monge and Kantorovich has been a focal point for exciting mathematical developments combining calculus of variations, partial differential equations, convexity and geometric measure theory, as well as interesting applications to models from physics, geometry, computer vision, earth science and economics. Our aim is to bring together experienced and young researchers working in a diversity of related areas to share their discoveries and discuss open problems and perspectives for the future of this blossoming field. The conference is supported by a U.S. National Science Foundation Focused Research Group on Optimal Transportation, and will be hosted by the Fields Institute for Mathematical Sciences in Toronto, Canada, Monday August 20 - Saturday August 25, 2001. Some funding is available to defray the local expenses of young researchers and scientists without grants.
