Talk at 12:15 PM in 511 Lake


 

Abstract: We give a a strong version of a classic inequality of Łojasiewicz; one which collapses to the usual inequality in the complex analytic case. We show that this inequality for tuples of real analytic functions allows us to construct a real Milnor fibration. For those familiar with my usual, complex analytic talks, which use the derived category and other advanced machinery, this will NOT be one of those talks. This talk should be accessible to a much more general audience.



Here are some directions to Northeastern University. Lake Hall can be best accessed from the entrance on the corner of Greenleaf Street and Leon Street.
