Abstract
The exhibition "Pretty Porous - Alles Porös" makes the fascinating micro-world of porous media tangible with many examples: But how can one make reliable predictions about the physical, chemical or biological effects shown, when the structure of the porous solid can be arbitrarily complicated, changes permanently and is actually not even exactly known? Mathematics can help to bring out a lot of (almost) nothing. The lecture will highlight the role of mathematics in the field of porous media research and give an insight into how conversely real porous materials inspire mathematics.
