About Manuel del Pino

Manuel del Pino currently holds the position of Professor in the Department of Mathematical Sciences at the University of Bath, UK. In 2018, he was honored with a Royal Society Research Professorship, the Society’s top research award, allowing exceptional scientists to focus on research by relieving them of teaching and administrative duties.

Previously, Professor del Pino worked at the Universidad de Chile, and has made significant contributions to the theory of asymptotic patterns in nonlinear partial differential equations. He is also a member of the Chilean Academy of Science and was the recipient of Chile’s National Prize of Science in 2013.

Research interests:

  • Analysis of nonlinear partial differential equations
  • Blow-up patterns in nonlinear evolution problems
  • Singular limits in variational problems with loss of compactness

Manuel’s work deals with the analysis of singularity formation in non-linear partial differential equations. Of central interest is the construction of families of solutions with blow-up patterns in evolution problems in geometry, fluid dynamics and chemotaxis. A closely connected topic in his research is the analysis of singular limits in variational problems with loss of compactness.

Continuity for maximal operators at the derivative level

Past seminar

Speaker: Cristián González Riquelme
ICTP Trieste, Italy

Date: January 6, 2022 at 16:15 Santiago time

Abstract: Maximal operators are central objects in harmonic analysis. The oscillatory behavior of such objects has been an important topic of study over the last decades. However, even in the dimension one there are interesting questions that remain open. In this talk we will discuss recent developments and open questions about this topic, particularly about the boundedness and continuity for such operators at the derivative level.

The fibering method applied to the level sets of a family of functionals

Abstract:  Given an one-parameter family of C1-functionals, Φμ : X →R, defined on an uniformly convex Banach space X, we describe a method that permit us find critical points of Φμ at some energy level c ∈ R. In fact, we show the existence of a sequence μ(n,c), n ∈N, such that Φμ(n,c) has a critical level at c ∈ R, for all n ∈ N. Moreover, we show some good properties of the curves μ(n,c), with respect to c (for example, they are Lipschitz), and as a consequence of this analysis, we recover many know results on the literature concerning bifurcations of elliptic partial differential equations. Furthermore we prove new results for a large class of elliptic partial differential equations, which includes, for example, Ouyang, Lane-Enden, Concave-Convex, Kirchhoff and Schrödinger-Bopp-Podolsky type equations.

Maximal function estimates and local well-posedness for the generalized Zakharov–Kuznetsov equation

Past seminar

Speaker: Felipe Linares
IMPA, Brazil

Date: December 9, 2021 at 16:15 Santiago time

Abstract: In this talk we will discuss recent results regarding local well-posedness for the generalized Zakharov–Kuznetsov equation. We prove a high-dimensional version of the Strichartz estimates for the unitary group associated with the free Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation. As a by-product, we deduce maximal estimates which allow us to prove local well-posedness for the generalized Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation in the whole subcritical case whenever d\ge 4, k\ge 4 complementing the recent results of Kinoshita and Herr-Kinoshita. Finally, we use some of those maximal estimates in order to prove pointwise convergence results for the flow of the generalized Zakharov–Kuznetsov equation in any dimension, in the same spirit of a recent manuscript by Compaan, Lucà and Staffilani.
