Madhava Lecture Hall and Online
The question of understanding limits on the superconducting transition temperature Tc is of great fundamental and technological importance. I will give a pedagogical introduction to this question aimed at non-specialists. I will describe recent progress on deriving exact upper bounds on the Tc of...more

Modularity and hierarchy are fundamental and functionally critical features of neural circuits. However, their developmental emergence remains unclear. In this talk, I will demonstrate how simple bottom-up dynamical rules can give rise to structure in the cortex, with emphasis on modularity in grid...more

Madhava Lecture Hall
Every day, we encounter complex flows around us that are sensitive to their surrounding conditions. For example, pastes flow when squeezed, sudden mudslides and avalanches occur, grains get jammed in hoppers, and cells migrate during wound healing. I am interested in understanding how these complex...more
