Title: Maximal Subellipticity Abstract: The theory of elliptic PDE stands apart from many other areas of PDE because sharp results are known for very general linear and fully nonlinear elliptic PDE. […]

Title: Pyknotic setsAbstract: In this talk, I will introduce the idea of Pyknotic/Condensed sets and how they can potentially be used to solve the problem of the category of topological […]
Title: On the cone conjecture for log Calabi-Yau threefolds.Abstract: Let $Y$ be a smooth projective threefold admitting a $K3$ fibration $f: Y rightarrow mathbb{P}^{1}$ with $-K_{Y} = f^{ast} mathcal{O}(1)$. Then the extremal […]
Title: Modularity of trianguline Galois representations Abstract: The Fontaine-Mazur conjecture (proved by Kisin and Emerton) says that (under certain technical hypotheses) a Galois representation rho: Gal_Q -> GL2(Qp) is modular […]
Title: Speculations on Computing with the Relative Trace FormulaAbstract: I will discuss and motivate the problem of computing statistics of automorphic representations. Many statistics have been computed previously using "explicit" forms […]
Title: A Generalization of the Geroch Conjecture with Arbitrary EndsThe Geroch conjecture (proven by Schoen-Yau and Gromov-Lawson) says that the torus T^n does not admit a metric of positive scalar […]
Title: Tannaka duality for algebraic 2-groupsAbstract: The Tannakian formalism is a web of statements which, in its most basic form, attempts to recover a group G from its symmetric monoidal […]
Title: Pyknotic/condensed sets II Abstract: We will continue the discussion of pyknotic sets, and introduce the notion of condensed sets.
Title: Symmetries of Fano varieties.Abstract: A landmark result of Birkar, Prokhorov, and Shramov shows that automorphism groups of Fano (or more generally rationally connected) varieties over C of a fixed dimension are […]
Title: An introduction to Hopf Rings.Abstract: An old guy’s perspective on what homotopy theory used to be about and why complex cobordism has become central to the study.And, I’ll show […]
Title: Dirac geometryAbstract: Whatever it is that animates anima and breathes life into higher algebra, this something gives the homotopy groups of a commutative algebra in spectra the structure of […]
