- Feb 183:00 PMPDE/Analysis SeminarSpeakers: Dan Mangoubi (Hebrew University)Title: Multiplicity bounds for eigenvalues of the clamped circular plate.Abstract: Consider a vibrating circular membrane with its (Dirichlet) Laplacian eigenvalues. Bourget's hypothesis, proved by Siegel in 1929, says that there are no eigenvalues of non-trivial multiplicities. On the other hand, it is an open question whether there are non-trivial multiplicities in the vibrating clamped circular plate problem. I will report on progress in this direction where it is shown that no eigenvalue of the clamped circular plate has multiplicity greater than four.Based on joint work with Daniel Rosenblatt.
- Feb 184:00 PMWriting a Journal ArticleWriting a journal article can be a daunting task, characterized by frustration instead of progress. This four-part workshop series will breakdown the task of writing an empirical journal article into manageable pieces so that you can move your project forward. Led by WCC lecturer Adrienne Tierney, Ed.D, we will discuss how to approach each section and how to use writing as a problem-solving tool in creating a meaningful paper that conveys your research clearly and effectively. We encourage you to attend all sessions of the series, but you are also welcome to sign up for separate sessions.Part 1.

- Feb 185:30 PMMind-Body-Breath Yoga - Virtual ClassThis yoga practice provides the opportunity to relax and de-stress as well as to stretch, strengthen, and balance your body. The practice begins with a meditative centering followed by warm-ups, a posture flow, and a restful final relaxation. We conclude with a closing and some time for connecting with your fellow yogis.The yoga postures are led at a moderate intensity. Lower intensity modifications are always offered and there is absolutely no obligation to do any posture. The goal is to make the class accessible to beginners as well as experienced practitioners. Listening to your body is the key to safety, especially in this online format.Registration is required on our wellness class website. If you do not already have an account on this website, you'll need to create one. This is fee-based class and open to the entire MIT community.
