Wave decay on asymptotically flat spacetimes

Peter Hintz (MIT)
Monday 15 June 2020 16:00–17:00 Zoom (contact Jacob Schach Møller for details)
Mathematics Seminar

The focus of this talk is the study of asymptotic expansions of linear waves propagating on stationary and asymptotically flat spacetimes. On the spectral side, I will describe a hands-on approach to resolvent expansions near zero energy based on recent work by Vasy. I will discuss two main applications: first, sharp decay for scattering by short range potentials on $\mathbb R^3$; second, strengthening of Price's Law on Kerr spacetimes.


This talk is part of series of talks affiliated with the virtual Mittag-Leffler workshop "Scattering, microlocal analysis and renormalization", organized by Claudio Dappiaggi, Jacob Schach Møller and Michal Wrochna. The full schedule can be found at:
