Can You Hear the Sound of a Drum

Alex Bartel (University of Glasgow)

Tuesday 2nd December 16:00-17:00
Maths 311B

Abstract

I will explain the mathematical formulation of this tantalising question, will give a bit of an overview of what is known about it, and will tell you what Aurel Page and I recently contributed to the area. In the spirit of the seminar, I will explain how I, as a number/representation theorist, became interested in this question.
 
This is part of the Fox & Hedgehog seminar, an AGQ seminar focused on maths, mathematical physics and theoretical physics, and the process of doing research.
