Floer homology is a fundamental construction relating dynamical properties of Hamiltonian flows on symplectic manifolds to the topology of the manifold. Although this construction is global in nature, when the Hamiltonian flow is supported on a...

A binary code is simply any subset of 0/1 strings of a fixed length. Given two strings, a standard way of defining their distance is by counting the number of positions in which they disagree. Roughly speaking, if elements of a code are sufficiently...

I will explain a proof of a joint with D. Alvarez-Gavela and D. Nadler theorem which allows to make a Lagrangian submanifold transverse to a given Lagrangian distribution in exchange for making them piecewise smooth with canonical singularities...

We consider variational principles related to V. I. Arnold's stability criteria for steady-state solutions of the two-dimensional incompressible Euler equation. Our goal is to investigate under which conditions the quadratic forms defined by the...

I will present an elementary introduction to the regularity/uniqueness issues for the Navier-Stokes equations. Thanks to the convex integration technique, the h-principle is starting to take shape for the uniqueness problem. It might be possible...

We will discuss embeddings of manifolds with a view towards applications in contact and symplectic category.

A fundamental problem in the theory of compressible fluid is to provide a precise description of shock formation and development from smooth initial data. In this talk, I will present recent work in collaboration with Drivas, Shkoller and Vicol on...
