From Fourier Restriction to Number Theory, Combinatorics, and Fractal Geometry
Dominique Maldague
9:30am|Simonyi Hall 101

Abstract: Fourier series are classically used to construct solutions to partial differential equations such as the wave and Schrödinger equations. In Fourier restriction theory, additional conditions are imposed on the frequencies of these series...

What KdV Teaches us About Waves
Monica Visan
11:00am|Simonyi Hall 101

Abstract: In this course, we will use the Korteweg-de Vries equation as a model to understand the behavior of dispersive partial differential equations. Through this lens, we will discuss dispersion, well-posedness, and solitons.  We will also...

On Superorthogonality
Lillian Pierce
5:00pm|Simonyi Hall 101

Abstract: How do we check if two vectors are orthogonal? We compute their dot product, which by definition takes two vectors as inputs. How do we check if two functions are orthogonal? We compute their inner product, which by definition takes two...
