The conference will feature ten lectures delivered by Dr. Svitlana Mayboroda
Besides these lectures, we plan several 45-minute long lectures. We also plan a poster session (with posters printed at FSU for free!).

Title: Bourgain's constants for harmonic and caloric measures
Abstract: Bourgain’s constant is the largest number bn such that the dimension of harmonic measure on any n-dimensional domain is at most n − bn. Jones and Wolff (1988) proved that b2 = 1. When n ≥ 3, Bourgain (1987) proved that bn > 0 and Wolff (1995) proved that bn < 1. In recent work, joint with Alyssa Genschaw, we prove that Bourgain’s theorem on the dimension of harmonic measure persists in the setting of the heat equation. Further, refining Bourgain’s original outline, we prove asymptotic lower bounds on Bourgain’s constant in high dimensions and explicit lower bounds on Bourgain’s constant in dimensions 3 and 4.

Title: Higher order elliptic partial differential equations with lower order terms
Abstract: Operators of the form Lu = ∇ ⋅ (A∇u), that is, second order linear differential operators in divergence form, are by now very well understood. Two important generalizations are higher order operators Lu = ∇m ⋅ (A∇mu), for m ≥ 2 an integer, and operators with lower order terms Lu = ∇ ⋅ (A∇u) + ∇ ⋅ (Bu) + C ⋅ ∇u + Du. In this talk we discuss some first attempts to combine the two generalizations and study higher order operators with lower order terms.

Title: Exponential Decay Estimates for Fundamental Matrices of Generalized Schrödinger Systems
Abstract: In this work, we consider the behavior of the fundamental matrices associated to systems of generalized Schrödinger operators. The Schrödinger operators that we deal with have leading coefficients that are bounded and uniformly elliptic, and they have zeroth-order potentials that belong to certain reverse Hölder matrix classes. By exploring the properties of reverse H\"older matrices and building on the ideas of Shen, Mayboroda and Poggi, we establish the existence of fundamental matrices and prove upper and lower exponential decay estimates for them. This talk covers joint work with Josh Isralowitz.

Title: An elliptic operator on the four-corner Cantor set, with elliptic measure proportional to H1
Abstract: The lecture is about the construction, with S. Mayboroda, of an elliptic operator L = − div(a(x)∇) on the complement of a one-dimensional Cantor set E in the plane, so that the corresponding elliptic measure on E is the product of the length measure H1 by a function which is bounded and bounded from below. The main idea is to build the Green function by hand, deduce the function a, and use the fractal invariance to prove it is elliptic. I’ll try to explain why we care about such examples.

Title: Harmonic analysis tools for free boundary problems
Joseph Feneuil, Université Paris-Saclay
Title: Generalized Carleson perturbations of elliptic operators.
Abstract: Let L0=div A0 ∇ be a uniformly elliptic operator on a domain Ω, and we assume that the elliptic measure ωL0 is A∞-absolutely continuous with respect to a doubling measure σ on the boundary ∂Ω. We are interested in perturbations L1 of L0 that preserve the A∞-absolute continuity of the elliptic measure w.r.t. σ.
We shall discuss the literature on “Carleson perturbations of elliptic operators”, from the initial work of Fefferman, Kenig and Pipher in 1991, to the recent article of Bruno Poggi and the speaker. In the later paper, we proposed an extended notion of Carleson perturbations, and we worked on a wide range of domains and elliptic operators by assuming only a suitable elliptic theory.

Title: The regularity problem for the Laplace equation and boundary Poincaré inequalities in rough domains
Abstract: Given a bounded domain Ω ⊂ ℝn, one says that the Lp-regularity problem is solvable for the Laplace equation in Ω if, given any continuous function f defined in ∂Ω and the harmonic extension u of f to Ω, the non-tangential maximal function of the gradient of u can be controlled in Lp norm by the tangential derivative of f in ∂Ω. Up to quite recently this was only known to hold for Lipschitz domains (in some range of p’s). In my talk I will explain a recent result with Mihalis Mourgoglou where we show that the Lp-regularity is also solvable in more general domains, such as 2-sided chord-arc domains. In the solution of this problem, the Poincaré inequality in the boundary of the domain plays an important role. I will also discuss this issue and a related joint result with Olli Tapiola where we show that the boundaries of 2-sided chord-arc domains support 1-Poincaré inequalities.

The main part of the conference will be held at the HCB building.
There are several hotels within walking distance from campus. There are also plenty of Airbnb and Vrbo options.
The following hotels gave a discounted rate for the conference participants:
Aloft Tallahassee Downtown Reserve
Hampton Inn & Suites Reservation Link Reserve
Seminole Cafe and the Suwanee room, two buffet-style cafeterias, are located on Campus at five to ten minutes walking distance from the Department of Mathematics. Both places offer very good pricing and choice of food (in particular, vegetarian), and serve Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner. Moreover, there are many independent dining options within 1 mile from campus, serving a wide variety of food. We particularly encourage the participants to check out the restaurants located on and around Gaines Street.
Florida State University uses the eduroam network, and the participants will be able to join it. In addition, guest accounts for the FSU network will be created for the participants, which will provide high-speed internet access. Access to printers and computer lab will be provided as well, in case the participants will need to download, copy or print papers or other materials.
