Title: Evolution Equations with Critical Nonlinearity: Global Dynamics and RG Method Speaker: Yuanwei Qi, University of Caliafonia at Santa Barbara Time and place: Apr. 17 3:30pm at REC 307 Abstract: In this talk, I shall demonstrate how to combine classical PDE techniques and the Renormalization Group method (RG) to derive global dynamics of a number of nonlinear parabolic equations with critical nonlinearity involving anomalous exponent.
