中文简介:
Stefan的问题可以追溯到19世纪,旨在描述水中冰块融化的演变过程。它的数学分析几乎没有进展,直到20世纪70年代,Duvaut将其重新表述为一个漂亮的凸函数的梯度流。1977年,Caffarelli证明了冰水界面是某个闭集之外的光滑表面:即所谓的奇异集。这是一个巨大的突破。然而,20世纪70年代可用的方法不允许对奇异集的结构进行精细描述。在接下来的20年里,Almgren发展了他的最小曲面分支奇点理论,并于2008年将这些方法应用于不太为人所知的“薄障碍问题”。这导致近年来Almgren的方法在研究Stefan问题中的奇点方面取得了丰硕的成果。但即使有了这些强大的新工具,我们也只差一半就可以获得对冰水界面上非光滑点的完全满意的描述。
课程简介: Stefan’s problem, dating back to the XIX century, aims to describe the evolution of a block of ice melting in water. Its mathematical analysis experienced few progress until the 1970’s, when Duvaut reformulated it as the gradient flow of a nice convex functional. In 1977, Caffarelli proved that the ice-water interface is an smooth surface outside of a certain closed set: the so-called singular set. This was as huge breakthrough. However, methods available back in the 1970’s did not allow for a fine description of the structure of the singular set. During the following 20 years, Almgren developed his theory of branching singularities of minimal surfaces, and in 2008 these methods were applied to the not-so-well-known “thin obstacle problem”. This induced, in recent years, a fruitful use of Almgren’s methods to study singularities in Stefan’s problem. But even with these powerful new tools in hand, we were only halfway to obtaining a fully satisfying description of the non-smoothness points on an ice-water interface...
