Computer Science/Discrete Mathematics Seminar II

Geodesics and Minimal Surfaces in a Random Environment
10:30am|Simonyi Hall 101 and Remote Access

Endow the edges of the $Z^D$ lattice with positive weights, sampled independently from a suitable distribution (e.g., uniformly distributed on [a,b] for some b>a>0). We wish to study the geometric properties of the resulting network, focusing on the...

Institute for Advanced Study / Princeton University Joint Astrophysics Colloquium

A "Cloud-Scale" View of the Matter Cycle in Galaxies
Adam Leroy
11:00am|Peyton Hall Auditorium

The gas-star formation-feedback "matter cycle" acts in many ways as the engine of galaxy evolution. Over the last decade, the PHANGS surveys have carried out surveys across the electromagnetic spectrum aimed at resolving galaxies into the...

Princeton Center for Heliophysics Seminar

Energy Storage and Release in the Solar Atmosphere
Nicholeen Viall
2:00pm|Virtual Meeting

There have been remote observations of the solar atmosphere for centuries, and in situ measurements of the heliosphere for almost 60 years. Computer simulation capabilities have vastly improved, and simulation techniques of the coupling between the...

Princeton University Donald R. Hamilton Colloquium Series

Free Probability Approaches to Quantum Dynamics
Silva Pappalardi
4:00pm|Jadwin Hall A-10

Abstract: Understanding how to characterize quantum chaotic dynamics is a longstanding question.

In this colloquium, I will discuss recent developments that identify Free Probability --  a generalization of probability theory to non-commuting objects...
