Computer vision and machine learning tools offer an exciting new way to automate analyzing and categorizing information from complex computer simulations. In my talk, I will discuss our current efforts in designing new computer vision tools for the...

We give a gentle introduction to rational and Du Bois singularities in algebraic geometry. Through examples, we will see how birational geometry comes into play with the theory of differential operators. Time permitting, we discuss the sheaf...

Weak gravitational lensing provides an immense opportunity to test the standard cosmological model and to probe astrophysics. Over the last decade, it has matured as a high-precision tool with on-going surveys like the Dark Energy Survey, which has...

Spherical varieties play an important role in the study of periods of automorphic forms. But very closely related varieties can lead to very distinct arithmetic problems. Motivated by applications to relative trace formulas, we discuss the natural...

For roughly three decades, astronomers anticipated that the launch of JWST would portend new discoveries and the potential upending of long-held notions for early galaxy formation. JWST did not disappoint! Within weeks of the start of science...

Abstract: I will discuss the general framework of effective theories obtained via exact path integration of a complete theory over some sector of its degrees of freedom.Theories constructed this way contain multi-integrals which couple fields...
