[Insalate Di Matematica]

Dear all,

For the *next appointment* of the series of seminars "Insalate di
Matematica", *Giacomo Cozzi* (Università degli Studi di Padova) will give a
talk.
The speaker will deliver the talk *in presence* and the meeting will also
be broadcasted *online* (see below for more information).

Here the details:

*Date and time*: *5th of November 2024, 4:30 pm (CET) (Notice the change of
date)*

*Title*: "Optimal Transport and Sliced Wasserstein Gradient Flow"

*Abstract*: In this talk we will introduce the theory of optimal transport,
which in the last decades has proven to be a very useful tool in several
branches of mathematics. The aim of the presentation is twofold: on one
hand we will define (Wasserstein) gradient flows, and on the other we will
introduce the Sliced Wasserstein distance, an useful-for-application
distance defined on spaces of probabilities via optimal transport (and the
better known Wasserstein distance). Finally, we  will present a recent
result obtained in collaboration with Filippo Santambrogio (Univ. Lyon 1)
concerning the Sliced Wasserstein Flow, which is the gradient flow of the
Sliced Wasserstein distance in Wasserstein spaces.

*Keywords:* Optimal transport, Wasserstein spaces, Gradient flow, Sliced
Wasserstein distance

*Information to attend in room 3014*
The seminar will take place in room 3014, at the building U5-Ratio,
Università degli Studi di Milano Bicocca.
