Compactness issues for Willmore surfaces

speaker: Paul Laurain (Université de Paris)

abstract: We will start by introducing the general framework of Willmore surfaces and the analytic tools devoted to their study. Then we will focus on the question of weak compactness for sequences of Willmore surfaces. This will allows me to introduce the residues issue from conservation laws. Then using those residues I will give some strong compactness results below 12\pi. Furthermore, I will present a blow-up example at the 16\pi level. Finally I will discuss the remaining cases.
