• Time: 14:00 - 15:30
• Address:
  Sokolovská 83, Praha
• Room: K3
• Speaker: Martin Brokate

We give an introduction to basic rate independent evolutions like those defined by the play and stop operator. We then discuss the question whether these operators, which are nonsmooth operators between suitable function spaces, have directional derivatives.
