DESCRIPTION:Title: Convexity and High-Dimensional Phenomena\n\nOnline Octob
 er 1\, 2021 at 11am\n\nThis lecture is aimed at a general mathematical aud
 ience.\n\nAbstract: High-dimensional problems with a geometric flavor appe
 ar in a number of branches of mathematics and mathematical physics. A prio
 ri\, it seems that the immense diversity observed in high dimensions would
  make it impossible to formulate general\, interesting theorems that apply
  to large classes of high-dimensional geometric objects. In this talk we w
 ill discuss situations in which high dimensionality\, when viewed correctl
 y\, induces remarkable order and simplicity rather than complication. For 
 example\, Dvoretzky's theorem demonstrates that any high-dimensional conve
 x body possesses nearly-Euclidean sections of large dimension. Another exa
 mple is the central limit theorem for convex bodies\, according to which a
 ny high-dimensional convex body has approximately-Gaussian marginals. Ther
 e are strong motifs in high-dimensional geometry\, such as the concentrati
 on of measure\, which appear to compensate for the large number of differe
 nt configurations. Convexity allows us to harness these motifs in order to
  formulate elegant and non-trivial theorems.\n\nhttps://us06web.zoom.us/j/
