Geometry & Topology Seminar: Austere matrices, austere submanifolds and Dupin hypersurfaces

Speaker: Jianquan Ge, Beijing Normal University

Abstract: We introduce a recent work joint with Yi Zhou about austere matrices and austere submanifolds, which is motivated from isoparametric theory and related to Bryant’s austere space and Dupin hypersurfaces. In particular, we solve a problem proposed by Thorbergsson in his 2000 survey paper.
