A classical problem in linear algebra is to understand what are the linear subspaces of the space of $m\times n$ matrices such that no matrix in the space has full rank. This problem has connections to theoretical computer science, more precisely...

Kantorovich Initiative Seminar: Robert McCann
July 23, 2024
University of British Columbia
While Einstein’s theory of gravity is formulated in a smooth setting, the celebrated singularity theorems of Hawking and Penrose describe many physical situations in which this smoothness must eventually breakdown. In positive-definite signature...
