In this talk, we introduce some recent regularity results of free boundary in optimal transportation. Particularly for higher order regularity, when densities are Hölder continuous and domains are C^2, uniformly convex, we obtain the free boundary is...

Categorical Message Passing Language (CaMPL) is a functional style concurrent programming language with a categorical semantics. In this talk, we explore the categorical semantics, programming syntax, and proof theory representations for CaMPL. This...

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...
