Geometric Measure Theory–Recent Applications

Tatiana Toro

Geometric Measure Theory (GMT) is a vibrant area of research that provides a framework for addressing questions in many different areas of mathematics, including calculus of variations, geometric analysis, and potential theory. Tatiana Toro provides historic background for some of the questions that gave rise to the field, notes its milestone moments, and explores recent developments at the intersection of GM, potential theory, and harmonic analysis.

Interview with Abel Laureate Robert P. Langlands

Bjørn Ian Dundas and Christian Skau

In September 2018, Bjørn Ian Dundas and Christian Skau interviewed Robert P. Langlands, 2018 recipient of the Abel Prize of the Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters, for the Newsletter of the European Mathematical Society. Notices reprints their engaging interview here.

The Mirror’s Magic Sights: An Update on Mirror Symmetry

The 1980s and 1990s saw an astonishing entanglement of research in geometry and mathematical physics. String theorists, developing their candidate for a quantum theory incorporating gravity, introduced mathematical ideas of great power and prescience: none more so than mirror symmetry. Timothy Perutz delights in telling the story of the hidden connections in this dazzling phenomenon and looks with fascination to what is ahead.
