Abstract:

The iconic photograph of Earth as a “pale blue dot,” captured by Voyager I, reveals our planet’s delicate presence against the vastness of space. Extending this perspective across time—from the Big Bang to the universe’s distant future—deepens our appreciationof humanity’s fleeting yet luminous moment in the cosmic story. Until the End of Time invites audiences on a visually rich journey to grasp our place in that cosmic unfolding.

      A constructive proof of finite time blowup of 3D incompressible Euler equations with smooth data

      Abstract:Whether the 3D incompressible Euler equations can develop a finite time singularity from smooth initial data is one of the most challenging problems in nonlinear PDEs. In this talk, we will present a new exciting result with Dr. Jiajie Chen in which we prove finite time blowup of the 2D Boussinesq and 3D Euler equations with smooth initial data and boundary. There are several essentia...
