I will review some recent progress on regularity properties of vortex and SQG patches. In particular, I will present an example of a vortex patch with continuous initial curvature that immediately becomes infinite but returns to (C2) class at all...

The loop equation for circulation PDF as functional of the loop shape is derived from the Hopf equation. This equation is exactly equivalent to the Schrödinger equation in loop space, with viscosity playing the role of Planck's constant. This...

We obtain new bounds on the additive energy of (Ahlfors-David type) regular measures in both one and higher dimensions, which implies expansion results for sums and products of the associated regular sets, as well as more general nonlinear functions...

I will talk about three interesting ingredients that goes into the results on H\"{o}rmander type operators I presented at Princeton (joint with Shaoming Guo and Hong Wang). They are all related to algebraic or geometric properties of multivariate...

There is a celebrated connection between minimal (or constant mean curvature) hypersurfaces and Ricci curvature in Riemannian Geometry, often boiling down to the presence of a Ricci term in the second variation formula for the area. The first goal...

In this talk I will present a general framework to establish the stability of  inequalities of the form >= F(u); where L is a positive linear operator and F is a 2-homogeneous nonlinear functional.

We will then see how this framework can be...

Lower scalar curvature bounds on spin Riemannian manifolds exhibit remarkable rigidity properties determined by spectral properties of Dirac operators. For instance, a fundamental result of Llarull states that there is no smooth Riemannian metric on...

I will discuss an upcoming result proving the full finite-codimension non-linear asymptotic stability of the Schwarzschild family as solutions to the Einstein vacuum equations in the exterior of the black hole region.

No symmetry is assumed. The...

A random planar map is a canonical model for a discrete random surface which is studied in probability theory, combinatorics, mathematical physics, and geometry. Liouville quantum gravity is a canonical model for a random 2D Riemannian manifold with...
