I derive a new set of bounds on the percolation threshold of a class of continuum percolation models consisting overlapping convex hyperparticles in d-dimensional Euclidean space. The bounds converge to one another as the space dimension increases...

I present some of the very fundamental notions in game theory, with emphasis on their role in the theory of mechanism design and implementation. Examples include (1) normal-form games: Nash equilibrium and full implementation, dominant strategy...

Patching methods are usually used to construct global objects from more local ones. On the other hand, algebraic objects can sometimes be understood from their local behavior, i.e., they satisfy a local-global principle. In this talk, we explain a...

The question of what conditions guarantee that a symplectic circle action is Hamiltonian has been studied for many years. In 1998, Sue Tolman and Jonathon Weitsman proved that if the action is semifree and has a non-empty set of isolated fixed...
