DESCRIPTION:Prof. Emanuele SPADARO - MPI für Mathematik in den Naturwisse
 nchaften\nThe study of minimal surfaces has been central in many problems 
 in geometric analysis and partial differential equations. In particular\, 
 the questions of the existence and regularity have played a crucial role i
 n this regard. However\, despite their relevance\, some basic issues have 
 been settled recently and many remain still open.\n\nIn this talk I will d
 iscuss some of the main questions on the regularity of surfaces minimizing
  the area (in the class of rectifiable currents in geometric measure theor
 y). Differently from the case of hypersurfaces\, our knowledge of the sing
 ularities in higher codimension is much poorer and\, in its most general f
 orm\, it consists of an estimate on the dimension of the singular set due 
 to Almgren and proved in his "Big regularity paper".\n\nI will present som
 e new results on this line obtained in collaboration with Prof. C. De Lell
 is (University of Zurich)\, which eventually lead to a new simplified proo
 f of Almgren's partial regularity result.
