Rado Lecture: Geometry & Physics
Title: Geometry and PhysicsSpeaker: Shing-Tung Yua (Harvard University) Abstract: The recent discovery of gravitational waves is a triumph of the theory of Einstein who proposed that gravity should be looked at as effects of curvature of space-time. We will discuss how the interplay of geometry and physics has lead to stunning advances of our understanding of space.The Radó Lectures were established to honor the memory of Tibor Radó, who was a member of the mathematics department from 1930 until his death in 1965.
