A chapter in Conversations on Optimal Transport, 2024, pp 39-58 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract Welcome to the Springer Math Podcast. In this month’s podcast, Camillo De Lellis, a researcher at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, converses with Nicola Gigli from the Scuola Internazionale Superiore di Studi Avanzati in Trieste, Italy. They delve into Nicola Gigli’s personal journey in and out of mathematics, discussing his path to the topics of his research and his enthusiasm for them. In this conversation, they also explore the connection between the concepts of optimal transport and the curvature of space, a discovery that has given rise to a flourishing research field at the intersection of multiple areas of mathematics. Originally aired by the Springer Nature webinar series , this interview has been specifically adapted for the podcast format.
