DESCRIPTION:Title: Extremal Problems in Discrete Geometry\n\nAbstract: What
  is the smallest total width of a collection of strips that cover a disk i
 n the plane? How many lines through the origin pairwise separated by the s
 ame angle can be placed in 3-dimensional space? What about higher-dimensio
 ns?\n\nThese extremal problems in Discrete Geometry look deceitfully simpl
 e\, yet some of them remain unsolved for an extended period or have been p
 artly solved only recently following great efforts. In this talk\, I will 
 discuss two longstanding problems: Fejes Tóth’s zone conjecture and a prob
 lem on equiangular lines with a fixed angle.\n\nNo specific background wil
 l be needed to enjoy the talk.\n
