VADOR Events Calendar
We frequently host one off lectures on topics relating to variational analysis, dynamics and operations research. In term-time, we host different speakers at our weekly AKOR seminar. Seminars take place most Thursdays in Sem. R. DB gelb 04. For 25/26 the start-time will move to 4pm. Once a month, the AKOR seminar will be replaced by the Vienna Seminar on Optimization, opens an external URL in a new window - a joint venture with Radu Bot and Yurii Malitskyi of the University of Vienna
We organise the Viennese Conference on Optimal Control and Dynamic Games, typically every three years. VC2025 took place in July 2025. For further details on this conference, and its forerunners, please visit the VC2025, opens an external URL in a new window website.
Topics and speakers for all forthcoming events will be posted below.
23. October 2025, 16:00 until 18:00
AKOR Seminar: Sobolev functions in spaces of (probability) measures and applications
Seminar
We show that the geometric and the metric approach to the definition of Sobolev spaces on spaces of (probability) measures coincide, provided suitable reference measures are chosen. For a specific (and in some way, canonical) choice of such a measure, we consider the induced Dirichlet form, which is naturally associated to a diffusion process on the space of non-negative measures endowed with the Hellinger–Kantorovich distance. Applications to image classification are also presented. This work has been done in collaboration with Lorenzo Dello Schiavo, Massimo Fornasier, and Pascal Heid.
