| Title: | Evolution problem in General Relativity |
| Seminar: | Department of Mathematics Colloquium |
| Speaker: | Igor Rodnianski, Princeton University |
| Abstract Link: | http://www.math.princeton.edu/WebCV/RodnianskiCV.pdf |
| Abstract: |
| The talk will introduce basic mathematical concepts of General
Relativity and review the progress, main challenges and open problems,
viewed through the prism of the evolution problem. I will illustrate
interaction of Geometry and PDE methods in the context of General
Relativity on examples ranging from incompleteness theorems and
formation of trapped surfaces to geometric properties of black holes
and stability problems. |
