Title: The Parallel Wall Theorem for CAT(0) even 2-complexes
Thursday, October 30, 2025, 11:00am–12:00pm, 2001 McGill College, room 650
Title: The Schrodinger bridge problem for regime-switching jump diffusions and its applications to the unbalanced problem.
Title: Maximizing Laplace eigenvalues with density in higher dimensions
Abstract: We will discuss the problem of maximizing the k-th Laplace eigenvalue with density on a closed Riemannian manifold of dimension m ≥ 2. The Euler–Lagrange equation identifies critical densities with the energy densities of harmonic maps into spheres, linking spectral optimization to harmonic-map theory. Unlike the case m = 2, where a priori multiplicity bounds yield existence and regularity, higher dimensions allow unbounded multiplicities.
