报告主要内容:Degenerate partial differential equations (PDEs) constitute a particular challenge in the general theory of PDEs. This is despite the fact that they often arise in applications. The usual approach to PDEs consists in assigning a type to an equation (like elliptic, hyperbolic, and parabolic) and then to study whole classes of equations simultaneously. In the degenerate case, this approach does not work any longer, as certain characteristics defining these classes of PDEs degenerate (or become singular) at certain points of the underlying domain. This has, for instance, the effect that certain constants in estimates fundamental for the theory explode at those special points.In this talk, we will discuss a number of strategies still to deal with degenerate PDEs and to reach conclusive results.
