In this talk, we will present some recent results in the study of the nonlinear wave equation with cubic defocusing nonlinearity, describing the completion of a program to establish global well-posedness and scattering in the energy-supercritical...

The classical result on the uniqueness of black holes in GR, due to Hawking, which asserts that regular, stationary solutions of the Einstein vacuum equations must be isometric to an admissible black hole Kerr solution, has at its core a a highly...

For 2D Euler equation, we prove a double exponential lower bound on the vorticity gradient. We will also discus some further results on the singularity formation for other models.

Let $\Omega$ and $\tilde{\Omega}$ be domains in the hyperbolic plane with smooth boundary. Assume that both domains are uniformly convex, and have the same area. We show that there exists an area-preserving, orientation-preserving diffeomorphism $f...

If we deform a submanifold along its mean curvature vector, which is called mean curvature flow (MCF), the area will decrease most rapidly. Being Lagrangian is preserved along MCF in Kahler-Einstein manifolds. We can thus try to construct special...

We investigate the Bilinear Hilbert Transform in the plane and the pointwise convergence of bilinear averages in Ergodic theory, arising from Z^2 actions. Our techniques combine novel one and a half dimensional phase-space analysis with more...

In 1975 Szemeredi proved that every subset of the integers with positive density contains arbitrarily long arithmetic progressions. Bergelson and Leibman showed in 1996 that the common difference of the arithmetic progression can be a square, a cube...

In this talk I will consider actions of non-abelian groups on n-dimensional tori, explain the notions of stiffness and stationary measures, and show how under fairly general assumptions stationary measures can be classified. A key ingredient is a...
