While by a result of McDuff the space of symplectic embeddings of a closed 4-ball into an open 4-ball is connected, the situation for embeddings of cubes $C^4 = D^2 \times D^2$ is very different. For instance, for the open ball $B^4$ of capacity 1...

Mohan Swaminathan (Princeton),Super-rigidity and bifurcations of embedded curves in Calabi-Yau 3-folds

I will describe my recent work, joint with Shaoyun Bai, which studies a class of bifurcations of moduli spaces of embedded pseudo-holomorphic...

In his search for closed orbits in the planar restricted three-body problem, Poincaré’s approach roughly reduces to:

1. Finding a global surface of section;
2. Proving a fixed-point theorem for the resulting return map.

This is the setting for the...

I will discuss the construction of continuous solutions to the incompressible Euler equations that exhibit local dissipation of energy and the surrounding motivations. A significant open question, which represents a strong form of the Onsager...

Joint work with Luc Hillairet (Orléans) and Emmanuel Trélat (Paris). A 3D closed manifold with a contact distribution and a metric on it carries a canonical contact form. The associated Reeb flow plays a central role for the asymptotics of the...

K3 surfaces have a rich geometry and admit interesting holomorphic automorphisms. As examples of Calabi-Yau manifolds, they admit Ricci-flat Kähler metrics, and a lot of attention has been devoted to how these metrics degenerate as the Kähler class...
