MaPSS: Maths Postgraduate Seminar Series: Bednarek -- Scalar Curvature in the Kahler-Ricci Flow

Hi everyone, 

The next MaPS (the Mathematical Postgraduate Society) Seminar will be on this Tuesday.
Pizza (with vegetarian options) will be provided after.  

Alex is a first-year Ph.D. student at the School of Mathematics and Statistics, advised
by Associate Professor Zhou Zhang.  Alex’s area of research is geometric analysis,
more precisely, the Kahler-Ricci flow.  

Time and date: Tuesday 10 October at 5pm.  

Location: Carslaw 173 and online.

Title: Scalar Curvature in the Kahler-Ricci Flow.  

Abstract: This talk will begin by introducing Kahler manifolds and some of their basic
properties.  We will give a historical introduction to the topic of Kahler-Ricci flow,
discussing Yau’s proof of the Calabi conjecture and the existence of Kahler-Einstein
metrics and H.D.  Cao’s use of the Kahler-Ricci flow as an alternate proof of the
conjecture.  Then we will examine the flow in a more general setting and analyze results
by Z.  Zhang concerning the behaviour of the scalar curvature in the cases of infinite
and finite time singularities.

group at MaPS@maths.usyd.edu.au.  Looking forward to seeing you soon!
