# Reading Seminar on Applied Analysis
這個 seminar 緣起於 Professor Aaron Nung Kwan Yip (Purdue University) 2019 年 12 月訪問成大時與幾位老師的討論。Professor Yip 分享他最近感興趣的幾個課題並構想暑假時舉辦 workshop 促進交流與合作的機會。

我們希望在這個 reading seminar 裡研讀一些介紹性文章學習相關的背景知識。Professor Yip 推薦的兩個題材與參考資料如下：
1. Homogenization of motion by mean curvature.
* Andrea Braides, [A Handbook of $\Gamma-$ Convergence](http://segnali-immagini.uniroma2.it/~braides/0607/Dottorato/Handbook.pdf)
* Andrea Braides, [Local Minimization, Variational Evolution and $\Gamma-$Convergence](http://cvgmt.sns.it/media/doc/paper/2094/Corso2013LN.pdf)
* Andrea Braides, [Gamma-Convergence for Beginners](https://global.oup.com/academic/product/gamma-convergence-for-beginners-9780198507840?cc=tw&lang=en&#)

2. Gradient flows of probability measures
