TopMath Talk with Timo Ziereis: Polycrystalline structures in an ionic particle system
TopMath Talks |
In this Top Math Talk I will present ongoing work with L. Kreutz about a discrete-to-continuum limit by means of Gamma-convergence. After a quick summary of the main results, I will focus on the discrete model. Here a crystal corresponds to an oriented portion of the integer lattice with charges. In particular, we will take a closer look at the boundaries of two such crystals, where different phenomena appear depending on the mismatch of the orientation.
TopMath Talks
As part of the TopMath talks, TopMath students and doctoral students present parts of their research. They provide an understandable insight into their current area of interest, enabling students and staff from different research fields to broaden their mathematical background knowledge. The talks are open to the public and last about an hour, followed by discussion. You are cordially invited!
