Now on Display in the Math Library: Tondeur Lecture Series Speaker Spotlight!<\/strong><\/p>\n

This month we have some of the works of Andr\u00e9 Neves and Philippe Tondeur on display. Neves will be delivering his lecture “Recent progress on existence of minimal surfaces,” the 9th through the 11th of April.<\/p>\n

Abstract:<\/strong> A long standing problem in geometry, conjectured by Yau in 1982, is that any\u00a03<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>-manifold admits an infinite number of distinct minimal surfaces. The analogous problem for geodesics on surfaces led to the discovery of deep interactions between dynamics, topology, and analysis. The last couple of years brought dramatic developments to Yau\u2019s conjecture, which has now been settled due to the work of Marques-Neves and Song. In the first talk I will survey the history of the problem and the several contributions made. In the second talk I will talk about the Weyl law for the volume spectrum (Marques-Neves-Liokumovich) and how it can be used to prove denseness and equidistribution of minimal surfaces in the generic case (Irie-Marques-Neves and Marques-Neves-Song). In the third talk I will survey the recent breakthroughs due to Song, Zhou, and Mantoulidis-Chodosh.<\/p>\n
