Extremal set theory typically asks for the largest collection of sets satisfying certain constraints. In the first talk of these series, I'll cover some of the classical results and methods in extremal set theory. In particular, I'll cover the...

"I will discuss some history and new results about the forced mean curvature flow in inhomogeneous media.  It is a model for interface propagation in quenched randomness in various physical settings, e.g. contact lines, phase interfaces in porous...

We will discuss work from https://arxiv.org/abs/1908.04227 on a homological mirror symmetry result for a complex genus 2 curve. We will first note how the result fits into the broader framework of HMS examples. Then we will describe the geometric...

Open Gromov-Witten (OGW) invariants should count pseudoholomorphic maps from curves with boundary to a symplectic manifold, with various constraints on boundary and interior marked points. The presence of boundary poses an obstacle to invariance. In...

In this work, we exploit the ill-posedness of linear inverse
problems to design algoithms to release differentially private data or
measurements of the physical system. We discuss the spectral
requirements on a matrix such that only a small amount...

Every area-minimizing hypercone having only an isolated singularity fits into a foliation by smooth, area-minimizing hypersurfaces asymptotic to the cone itself. In this talk I will present the following epsilon-regularity result: every minimal...

Courant's theorem states that the k-th eigenfunction of the Laplace operator on a closed Riemannian manifold has at most k nodal domains. Given a ball of radius r, we will discuss how many of nodal domains can intersect a ball (depending on r and k)...
