  Title: Self-repulsive curvature energies for curves and surfaces: regularity theory and relation to harmonic maps Abstract:  I will talk about a class of curvature energies for curves, the O'Hara energies, that are nonlocal in nature. In particular, I will present an approach for regularity theory of minimizers and critical points for these curves which is based on a relation to (fractional) harmonic maps. Then I will present some…
