Exploring Symplectic Embeddings and Symplectic Capacities
Speakers o Alex Gajewski o Eli Goldin o Jakwanul Safin o Junhui Zhang Project Leader: Kyler Siegel Abstract: Given a domain (e.g. a ball) in Euclidean space, we can ask what is its volume. We can also ask when one domain can be embedded into another one without distorting volumes. These

Symmetries show up everywhere in physics. But what is a symmetry? While the symmetries of shapes can be interesting, a lot of times, we are more interested in symmetries of space or symmetries of spacetime. To describe these, we need to build "invariants" which give a mathematical represen

Symplectic fillings and star surgery - Laura Starkston
Laura Starkston University of Texas, Austin September 25, 2014 Although the existence of a symplectic filling is well-understood for many contact 3-manifolds, complete classifications of all symplectic fillings of a particular contact manifold are more rare. Relying on a recognition theor
