Abstract:
The lecture will be about some recent advances in the non-linear Calderon Zygmund theory for degenerate parabolic PDEs. A method will be introduced that allows to prove local higher integrability results. The key analytic tool is a metric that locally depends on the solution and as such allows to quantitatively capture the variation of the ellipticity in space-time. We will discuss the regime of fast diffusion as well as the regime of finite speed of propagation.
