AbstractFollowing a brief introduction to complex manifolds, the course will explore connections between general relativity, the Einstein equation,and complex geometry. Among the topics I would like to cover are manifestations of Kähler and Hermitian geometry in general relativity, as well as twistor theory and its applications in general relativity and field theory. The course will be accessib...
AbstractStagnation point in flows is an interesting phenomenon in fluid mechanics. It induces many challenging problems in analysis. We first derive a Liouville type theorem for Poiseuille flows in the class of incompressible steady inviscid flows in an infinitely long strip, where the flows can have stagnation points. With the aid of this Liouville type theorem, we show the uniqueness of solut...
