I will begin with a gentle introduction to hyperrings and hyperfields (originally introduced by Krasner for number-theoretic reasons), and then discuss a far-reaching generalization, Oliver Lorscheid’s theory of ordered blueprints. Two key examples...

An atom is made of a positively charged nucleus and negatively charged electrons, interacting with each other via Coulomb forces. In this talk, I will review what is known, from a mathematical perspective, about this paradigmatic model, with a...

The purpose of the talk is to explain how additive combinatorics plays a role in recent work on the dimension of self-affine measures generated by maps satisfying a diophantine condition. Under low-entropy or separation assumptions, this problem is...

We will present the project of using the Willmore elastic energy as a quasi-Morse function to explore the topology of immersions of the 2-sphere into Euclidean spaces and explain how this relates to the classical theory of complete minimal surfaces...

This is a survey talk. The goal is to describe recent developments in Celestial Mechanics obtained with techniques from Symplectic Dynamics, and discuss open problems. Emphasis will be given to the construction of transverse foliations and their...

A translator for mean curvature flow is a hypersurface $M$ with the property that translation is a mean curvature flow. That is, if the translation is $t\rightarrow M+t\vec{v}$, then the normal component of the velocity vector $\vec{v}$ is equal to...
