Student Analysis Date:  Thursday, September 20, 2012 Location:  2866 East Hall (5:10 PM to 6:00 PM) Title:  Solving the Dirichlet Problem with Probability Abstract:   Given a domain D in R^n with nice boundary, and a nice function g(x) defined on its boundary, we will use Brownian motion to prove existence and uniqueness of solutions of the Laplace equation "Laplacian(h) = 0 on D, h=g on the boundary of D". No prior acquaintance with Brownian motion (or the Dirichlet problem) required. Speaker:  Elena Yudovina Institution:  UM Event Organizer:   Purvi Gupta      Edit this event (login required).
