  • CMSA Math-Science Literature Lecture: Nonlinear stability of Kerr black holes for small angular momentum

    Virtual

    Sergiu Klainerman (Princeton University) Title: Nonlinear stability of Kerr black holes for small angular momentum Abstract: According to a well-known conjecture,  initial data sets,  for the Einstein vacuum equations, sufficiently close to a Kerr solution with parameters $a, m$, $|a|/m <1$, have maximal developments with complete future null infinity and with domain of outer communication (i.e complement of […]

    CMSA Math-Science Literature Lecture – Karen Uhlenbeck

    Virtual

    Karen Uhlenbeck (Institute for Advanced Study) Title: The Noether Theorems in Geometry: Then and Now Abstract: The 1918 Noether theorems were a product of the general search for energy and momentum conservation in Einstein’s newly formulated theory of general relativity. Although widely referred to as the connection between symmetry and conservation laws, the theorems themselves […]
