    Title: Geometric inequalities for axisymmetric black holes Abstract: In general relativity, isolated, dynamical black holes arise from asymptotically flat initial data for the Einstein equations. Such data are characterized by invariants such as the ADM mass and angular momentum. When angular

    Asymptotically Anti-de Sitter Gravitational Solitons In this talk, I will consider the stability of asymptotically anti-de Sitter gravitational solitons. These are globally stationary, asymptotically (globally) AdS spacetimes with positive energy but without horizons. I will introduce my ongoing project investigating

    Title: Factorization of positive definite functions through convolution and the Turàn problem Abstract: If $G$ is a finite abelian group, we call a subset $S\subset G$ symmetric if $0\in G$ and $-x\in S$ whenever $x\in S$. We also let $S^*=(G\setminus

    Title: Some tame or wild Cantor dynamical systems Abstract: A topological dynamical system is a pair $(X,T)$ where $X$ is a compact metric spaces and $T$ is a group or semigroup acting continuously on $X$. One algebraic invariant of a

    Outer entropy equals Bartnik-Bray inner mass, and the gravitational ant conjecture Jinzhao Wang (ETH Zurich) Entropy and energy are found to be closely tied on our quest for quantum gravity. We point out an interesting connection between the recently proposed
