Chair of Geometric Analysis
Geometric Analysis has grown out of the study of calculus and differential equations involving curves and surfaces or domains with curved boundaries. Many mathematical disciplines such as Differential Geometry, Lie Group Theory and the Calculus of Variations, are subareas of Geometric Analysis.
The development of analysis on manifolds is fundamental to much of Applied Mathematics and Physics. Physics in particular, through theoretical developments in relativity theory, quantum mechanics and string theory, has spurred many exciting new research directions in geometric analysis.
The broad interplay between geometric reasoning, analytical methods, and physical motivations is characteristic of the activities of our chair members.
Professor Tudor Ratiu has retired from EPFL and moved to Shanghai Jiao Tong University.
The EPFL Chair of Geometric Analysis has ceased all activities in April 2015.
