Title : Scalar curvature comparison and rigidity of 3-dimensional weakly convex domains Abstract: I will discuss a comparison and rigidity result of scalar curvature and scaled mean curvature on the […]
Title: "On applications of Topology" Abstract: I will explain how knowledge of Topology helped with winning the Nobel Prize in Physics 2016. No familiarity with advanced math beyond Calculus will […]
Title: A characterization of uniruled Kähler manifolds.Abstract: We adapt Bost's algebraicity characterization to the situation of a germ in a compact Kähler manifold. As a consequence, we extend the algebraic integrability criteria […]
Title: A Comparison of Two Supercharacter TheoriesAbstract: In 2008, P. Diaconis and I.M. Isaacs introduced a generalization of classical character theory, which they called supercharacter theory. Let X be a […]
Title: Non-uniqueness of mean curvature flow Abstract: The smooth mean curvature flow often develops singularities, making weak solutions essential for extending the flow beyond singular times, as well as having […]
Title: Wait! That Cannot Be RightAbstract: In this talk proofs will be presented that contain an incorrect step or include an incorrect assumption. This will lead us to prove concepts […]
Title: The Utility of L-FunctionsAbstract: Following Serre, we will explain how L-functions and potential automorphy results enter the proof of the Sato–Tate conjecture for elliptic curves. If we have time remaining, […]
Title:Abstract:
This event will feature a panel of faculty from our math department to provide support for students seeking to learn more about the process of applying to graduate school in […]
