Abstract
In this talk I will outline the recent result together with Vesa Julin and Lauri Viitasaari concerning a characterization of the Eyring-Kramers formula that works also at degenerate saddle points, without resorting to Taylor expansions. I will explain how we used the ideas from geometric function theory to prove a very general capacity estimate.
