Abstract
Spatial random graphs provide an important framework for the analysis of relations and interactions in networks. In particular, the random geometric graph has been intensively studied and applied in various frameworks like network modeling or percolation theory. In this talk we focus on approximation results for a generalisation of the random geometric graph that consists of vertices given by a Gibbs process and (conditionally) independent edges generated from a connection probability function. We introduce a new graph metric between finite spatial graphs of possibly different sizes that is built on the OSPA metric for point patterns, but penalizes both vertex and edge structures. We develop Stein's method for general integral probability metrics that compare the distributions of spatial random graphs. We then focus on the Wasserstein distance with respect to the new graph metric to obtain improved rates of convergence for a suitable type of convergence in distribution of spatial random graphs. Finally, we give an application of our results to the discretisation of a generalised random geometric graph. Joint work with Dominic Schuhmacher (University of Göttingen).

Abstract
In my talk we consider elliptic systems in divergence form, potentially perturbed by a multiplicative perturbation from the left, with measurable, elliptic coefficients. I will first explain why we should care for non-smooth coefficients and why they are difficult to treat. Afterwards, we will turn our focus to elliptic systems that are defined in rough domains and subject to mixed boundary conditions, I will introduce our geometric framework by virtue of examples and present which positive results we can obtain in this scope, both L2 theory and (the optimal range of) Lp theory. Finally, I will conclude with some open questions (and what we expect to obtain for them).

Estimates for operator functions

Weierstraß-Institut, Mohrenstr. 39, 10117 Berlin, 4. Etage, Raum: 405/406

Abstract
In several branches of mathematics and mathematical physics estimates for operator functions are of high interest. On one hand, this is the case in quantum chemistry, in particular in the analysis of the Kohn--Sham system. Here we present an elementary proof of the Birman--Solomyak theorem - which was an open problem for a long time. The second item of the talk affects operator functions for second order divergence operators. We give an impoved estimate for the angle of the sector which contains the numerical range and draw several consequences of this.
