Local: Auditório – IMECC
O Centro Brasileiro de Geometria (CBG) convida a comunidade acadêmica para o primeiro encontro do ciclo de seminários Intersecções, coordenado pelo Professor Alberto Saa, uma iniciativa que busca aproximar as quatro verticais temáticas do Centro, destacando conexões entre diferentes áreas de pesquisa, métodos e conceitos, além de suas aplicações.
Voltado a pesquisadoras, pesquisadores, estudantes e ao público interessado em ciência, o ciclo pretende criar um espaço de troca de ideias, estimular colaborações e ampliar a compreensão do papel da geometria na matemática, nas ciências e na sociedade.
In this talk, we will first provide a brief introduction to Finsler geometry, focusing on its fundamental concepts and its potential for modeling anisotropic phenomena. We will then discuss wave propagation as an application of Finsler geometry in physics. In particular, we will present applications to three different problems: wildfire propagation, maritime Search and Rescue, and the study of black holes. These examples illustrate how geometric approaches can provide a unified framework for modeling wave propagation in different physical and environmental settings. Finally, we will discuss ongoing and future work, with particular emphasis on interdisciplinary collaborations and research connecting different areas and research groups.

This talk has two objectives. First, we present some concepts and results from geometric control theory, such as orbits and reachable sets. The second objective—following a brief overview of certain aspects of Finsler geometry—is to discuss how to travel along broken geodesics of a Finslerian submersion, based on joint work with M. Inagaki and F. Escobosa. This talk is aimed at a broad audience of students and researchers working in differential geometry.
