Abstract:
In this talk, titled "The Question Mark Function, Welding, and Complex Dynamics," Prof. McMullen will explore a fascinating interplay of ideas drawn from number theory, conformal geometry, and dynamical systems. While the abstract remains intentionally open-ended, the colloquium promises a thought-provoking look at mathematical structures that defy easy categorization.
