Lehrinhalte
We will study models for spatially extended systems of many interacting particles that are subject to noise. The most prominent example is the Ising model, but we will also consider other models like the Potts model. For these models, we will consider the question of infinite volume limits, phase transitions, correlation inequalities, thermodynamic variables, and alternative (e.g. Random walk) representations.

Lehrinhalte
Investigation of existence, uniqueness and regularity of linear and nonlinear partial differential equations with methods of functional analysis. The emphasis lies on consideration of partial differential equations with applications, for example in hydrodynamics or material science. The contents of the lecture depends partially on the field of research of the lecturer.
