Explore the extension of classical transport theory to k-currents in R^d in this 31-minute seminar by Paolo Bonicatto at the Hausdorff Center for Mathematics. Delve into the Lie transport equation and its applications in modeling defects in plastic materials. Examine the challenges and recent results of extending transport/continuity equations to generalized k-dimensional surfaces. Learn about the Lie derivative of currents, the relationship between continuity and transport equations, and the ongoing research project with Giacomo Del Nin and Filip Rindler. Cover topics including the theory of currents, subclasses of currents, the lead derivative, and rectifiability. Gain insights into this cutting-edge mathematical research and its potential implications for understanding complex material behaviors.
