Spring 2019

Harmonic Analysis
AS.110.633 (01)

Fourier multipliers, oscillatory integrals, restriction theorems, Fourier integral operators, pseudodifferential operators, eigenfunctions. Undergrads need instructor's permission.

Riemannian Geometry
AS.110.646 (01)

The goal is to give a self-contained course on mean curvature flow, starting with the basic linear heat equation in Euclidean space and – hopefully – getting to topics of current research. Mean curvature flow is a geometric heat equation that shares many properties with Ricci flow, harmonic map heat flow, Yang-Mills flow and the Navier-Stokes equations. Recommended Course Background: AS.110.605 and an undergraduate course in differential geometry; AS.110.645 and AS.110.631

An introductory graduate course on fundamental topics in algebra to provide the student with the foundations for Number Theory, Algebraic Geometry, and other advanced courses. Topics include group theory, commutative algebra, Noetherian rings, local rings, modules, and rudiments of category theory, homological algebra, field theory, Galois theory, and non-commutative algebras.
