Title: Existence of solutions to the stochastic Ericksen-Leslie system in a 3-D bounded
domain 

Abstract: Motivated by experimental evidence on the effect of thermal fluctuations in
liquid crystal flows, we consider the stochastic Ericksen-Leslie system with general
Oseen-Frank energy in a three-dimensional bounded domain.  Utilising the classical
Ginzburg-Landau approach, we prove the convergence of solutions to the stochastic
approximation and prove the existence of martingale solutions that are strong in the
sense of PDEs up to a maximal existence time.  

Chair: Ben Goldys (Professor @ The University of Sydney, Australia) 

The format of the seminar: 
- The Seminar is held in form of a 45 minutes lecture in a
Zoom Webinar.  
- The talk is followed-up by a 15 minutes Q&A discussion guided by the
chair of the talk.  
- Attendees please say "Hello, I am from University X!" in the
Chat upon entering the Webinar.  Since the Zoom Webinar does not provide a "list of
attendees" to the attendees, please identify yourself in the "Chat" upon entering the
Zoom Webinar with a short sentence!
