Quantitative Runge approximation in the context of an inverse problem
Abstract: The Calderón problem is one of the classic examples of an inverse problem. It is about determining the conductivity of a medium by making voltage and current measurements on its boundary. Some of the main questions of interest are about uniqueness and stability of this reconstruction.
In this talk, we will consider a related source-to-solution type inverse problem. One way of proving stability for such type of inverse problems is via a quantitative Runge approximation. We will investigate and prove a qualitative and a quantitative version of this approximation result. If time allows, we will then also argue how this can lead to stability estimates for the inverse problem.

Comparison Of Surface Energies In Scaling Laws
Abstract: The objective of this talk is to compare different surface energies for two-well singular perturbation problems associated with martensitic phase transformations. We show that scaling laws in the singular perturbation parameter are robust in the choice of the surface energy.
Building on Modica-Mortola type arguments we show that Lp based diffuse surface energies can always be bounded from below by a (L1 based) sharp interface penalization. We complement this by an almost matching upper bound.
