[Alta-Logic] Peripatetic seminar on Tuesday

[Florian Schwarz]

Dear all,

On Tuesday September 10th we will start the peripatetic season this fall 
with a talk by Minona Schäfer (Julius-Maximilian-University Würzburg).

It will take place at 3:30 pm in ICT 616.

*Title:* The sheaf of Distributions

*Abstract:* Originally, distributions were introduced in PDE-theory to 
generalize the notion of functions. However, this analytic concept also 
has some purely algebraic properties, which are worth to be considered.

In particular, they are an important example of sheaves in differential 
geometry. In this talk, we are going to discuss two views on 
distributions and their connections. On one hand, distributions can be 
considered as generalized densities (a broader concept of the 
determinant) and on the other hand as generalized functions. The latter, 
as we are going to show, form a sheaf, which gives us an insight on the 
sheaf-structure of distributions.

Hope to see you all there! Don't worry if it doesn't show on the 
website, we are just having some technical issues with the website.

All the Best,

Florian Schwarz
