Date: September 16, 2026 (Wednesday) at 4PM (UK time)
Speaker: Emanuel Milman, Technion-Israel Institute of Technology, Haifa, Israel
Topic: Multi-Bubble Isoperimetric Problems
About the Talk: Prof. Emanuel Milman is a leading mathematician in geometric analysis, isoperimetric inequalities, and convex geometry. In this talk, he will discuss the multi-bubble isoperimetric problem, which asks how several regions of prescribed volumes can be enclosed while minimizing the total area of their interfaces. The talk will cover background and history of the problem, and then highlight major recent advances in Euclidean and spherical spaces, including results concerning double, triple, quadruple, and quintuple bubbles. It will also explain the geometric ideas behind these results and the main questions that remain open. See the blog announcement of this talk for more details.
