Speaker Intro
Krzysztof Ciosmak defended his doctoral thesis on Optimal transport and 1-Lipschitz maps at the University of Oxford, where he also had a postdoctoral position. Afterwards, he held the Fields-Ontario Postdoctoral Fellowship at the Fields Institute and at the University of Toronto, supervised by Prof. Robert McCann. In September, he joined the Beijing Institute of Mathematical Sciences and Applications as a tenure-track Assistant Professor. His main interests lie in the optimal transport theory, applications thereof to geometric and functional inequalities, as well as in problems concerning of extensions of functions and potential theory.
Member Seminar Intro
The BIMSA member seminar is a weekly event during which researchers engage in discussions about their extensive research interests, addressing a diverse audience that includes fellow researchers and all postdoctoral scholars within the institute. This forum provides a unique privilege and an invaluable opportunity for each research faculty member, serving as a speaker, to introduce their research field, promote the subject within the institute, and ignite the potential for future collaborations with other research groups within the institute.
The lecture format consists of a 30-minute colloquium-style presentation, thoughtfully tailored to be accessible to postdoctoral scholars and researchers from diverse disciplines within the institute. Following the presentation, a 15-minute discussion session is anticipated, involving active participation from postdocs representing various fields.
It is mandatory for all postdocs at the institute to actively participate in this event. The enthusiastic involvement of faculty members is greatly valued and will prove mutually beneficial for both the speaker and the junior audience.
