The mathematics of black holes: recent advances and conjectures for the future - (Lecture I: Black hole basics for mathematicians)
Speaker:
Mihalis Dafermos, Princeton University and University of Cambridge
Date and Time:
Tuesday, May 26, 2026 - 3:45pm to 4:45pm
Location:
Fields Institute, Room 230
Abstract:
I will introduce one of the main protagonists in general relativity-–the Schwarzschild and Kerr family of black holes–-and some of the basic mathematical questions we ask about them. The talk should be accessible without prior knowledge of the subject.
