Consider a Brownian particle in a prescribed time-intependent incompressible flow in a bounded domain. We investigate how the strength of the flow and its geometric properties affect the expected exit time of the particle. The two main questions we analyze in this talk are as follows. 1. Incompressible flows are known to enhance mixing in...

To start, I will discuss Dirichlet's proof of infinitude of primes in an arithmetic progression. This leads up to the study of special values of L-functions and their arithmetic properties. If time permits, I will try to explain some conjectures and philosophy in this direction.

The classical Kauffman bracket is an invariant of knots in
space. It can be generalized to knots drawn on a surface. I will
discuss surprising properties of these generalized Kauffman
brackets.

In this talk, I will discuss the existence of a unique global weak solution
to the general Ericksen-Leslie system in $R^2$, which is smooth away from possiblyfinite many singular times, for any initial data. This is a joint work with Jinrui Huang and Fanghua Lin.
