Let V be a finite dimensional vector space over a field. The collection of all subspaces of V of a fixed dimension can be viewed as a geometric object in the sense that it is a nice projective algebraic variety, known as Grassmann variety. When the base field is finite with q elements, the Grassmann variety can be viewed as the “moduli space” of q-ary linear (error correcting) codes of a fixed length and dimension. Some questions about codes can be profitably studied from this viewpoint. More interestingly, the Grassmann variety itself leads to a special class of linear codes…

In the first part of the talk, some known results on the explicit distributions of integral functionals of Brownian motion will be shown, as well as some open problems related to them. In the second part, it will be shown how such functionals emerge in the finite-time blowup problem of systems of Stochastic Partial Differential Equations (SPDEs) and the open problems in this field of stochastic calculus.

Interior controllability properties of multi-d fractional pdes: what is the state of the art? We make a complete analysis of the interior controllability/orbservability properties of multi-D fractional partial differential equations. We show what is so far known and what is still unknown.

We propose results that relate the two contexts. The problems that we discuss arise from the mathematical description of elastic materials displaying heterogeneous incompatibilities of strains that may be associated with growth, swelling, shrinkage, plasticity, etc. Our results and methods display the interaction of nonlinear pdes, geometry, analysis and mechanics of materials in the prediction of patterns and shape formation.
