In this talkÌýwe willÌýfirst give a quick background overview of Bourgain's approach to prove the invariance of the GibbsÌýmeasure forÌýthe periodic cubicÌýnonlinear Schrodinger equation in 2DÌýand of the para-controlled calculusÌýofÌýGubinelli-Imkeller and PerkowskiÌýin the context ofÌýparabolic stochastic equations.ÌýWe will then presentÌýour resolution ofÌýthe long-standing problem ofÌýproving almost sure global well-posednessÌý(i.e. existenceÌýwith uniqueness) for the periodic nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLS) inÌý2D on the supportÌýof the Gibbs measure,Ìýfor any (defocusing and renormalized) odd power nonlinearity.ÌýConsequently we get theÌý¾±²Ô±¹²¹°ù¾±²¹²Ô³¦±ðÌýof the Gibbs measure.ÌýThis is achieved by a new methodÌýwe callÌýrandom averaging operatorsÌýwhichÌý±è°ù±ð³¦¾±²õ±ð±ô²âÌý³¦²¹±è³Ù³Ü°ù±ð²õÌýthe intrinsic randomnessÌýstructure of the problematic high-lowÌýfrequencyÌýinteractions at the heart of this problem.ÌýThis is joint work with Yu Deng (USC) and Haitian YueÌý(USC).
