Prof. Jared Speck to deliver AMS Invited Address
Stevenson Chair Jared Speck will give one of three invited lectures at the Fall Southeastern Sectional Meeting of the American Mathematical Society, to be held at Florida State University, March 23-24, 2024. The title of his talk is Singularity Formation for the Equations of Einstein and Euler and the abstract is as follows:
In recent years, there has been an explosion of mathematical activity tied to the formation of singularities in solutions to two of the most revered physical systems of PDEs: Einstein’s equations of general relativity and Euler’s equations of fluid mechanics. In this talk, I will provide an overview of the progress with an eye towards describing profound mathematical connections between these two systems and the role that geometry has played in the analysis. I will also highlight some key challenges for the future.
