“The Courant Nodal Domains Theorem and all that”

Mikhail Sodin (Tel Aviv University)

Chebyshev Laboratory Colloquium

Thursday April 25 17:15 room 14 (14-th line V.I., 29)

Abstract

I plan to start my lecture with the celebrated Courant theorem which bounds the
number of nodal domains of Laplace eigenfunctions, and then to turn to open
questions and recent results lying at the crossroads of analysis, topology and
probability theory inspired by Courant’s theorem.
