I will discuss results by R. Latala concerning tail behaviour of multivariate polynomials in independent Gaussian variables and show how when combined withclassical functional inequalities they give estimates for polynomials and more generally smooth functions with bounded derivatives of higher order for a more general class of non-necessarily p...

The Gromov-Hausdorff distance between two metric spaces is an important tool in geometry, but it is difficult to compute. For example, the Gromov-Hausdorff distance between unit spheres of different dimensions is unknown in nearly all cases. I will introduce recent work by Lim, Mémoli, and Smith that finds the exact Gromov-Hausdorff distances be...

Suppose ball-shaped sensors wander in a bounded domain. A sensor doesn't know its location but does know when it overlaps a nearby sensor. We say that an evasion path exists in this sensor network if a moving intruder can avoid detection. Vin de Silva and Robert Ghrist give a necessary condition, depending only on the time-varying connectivity d...

Consider a Vietoris-Rips complex of the circle with the geodesic metric. This simplicial complex has an infinite number of vertices, one for each point in the circle. A theorem of Jean-Claude Hausmann implies that for small connectivity parameter, the Vietoris-Rips complex is homotopy equivalent to a circle. What happens as the connectivity para...

Consider the Vietoris-Rips complex for n evenly-spaced points around a circle. For small choices of the connectivity parameter, this complex is homotopy equivalent to a circle. For n even and for a connectivity parameter slightly less than the diameter of the circle, this complex is the boundary of a cross-polytope and is homeomorphic to the (n/...

Each of these three posters contains a piece of digital art depicting an aspect of life during the COVID-19 pandemic. The creator describes the posters in the following way: "These images were made by me through my experience with living in these times. I have noticed all the conspiracy theories that come out, the addition of masks to your 'what...

This item contains two posters and seven pages of sketches in a notebook, all related to life during the COVID-19 pandemic. The creator describes the piece: "These images are my own hindsights about Covid. They [...] deal with my experience of the online semester during a global pandemic, mental illness, unemployment, etc." The first poster cont...
