The Positive Mass Theorem in Arbitrary Dimensions

Speaker: Yipeng Wang, Princeton University

Location: Warren Weaver Hall 512

Date: Friday, September 11, 2026, 11 a.m.

Synopsis:

We present an inductive scheme for proving the positive mass theorem in arbitrary dimensions, extending the Schoen–Yau argument from dimensions at most 7 to the general case. This is a joint work with Simon Brendle.
