Mode: In-Person Title: Global stability of Kaluza-Klein spacetimes Abstract: Spacetimes formed from the Cartesian product of Minkowski space and a flat torus play an important role as toy models for theories of supergravity and string theory. In this talk I … Read more
Mode: In-Person Title: A Non-Mathematical Introduction to the Mathematics of Closing the Control Theory-Computer Science Divide Abstract: Modern cars have hundreds of millions of lines of software code running on 100-200 processors embedded in them. They implement a variety of … Read more

Mode: In-person Title: Blow-ups and the quantum spectrum of surfaces Abstract: The cup product of ordinary cohomology describes how submanifolds of a manifold intersect each other. Gromov-Witten invariants give rise to quantum product and quantum cohomology, which describe how subspaces … Read more
