Four-dimensional Einstein metrics
Abstract: In this talk I will discuss some recent rigidity and classification results for positive Einstein metrics in dimension four. I will begin with a short survey of this rich subject, then talk about recent work with Andrea Malchiodi where we prove estimates for the Green's function of an operator associated to an Einstein metric. Assuming the sectional curvature is positive, I will explain how these estimates give a classification result under certain topological conditions.

Obstructions to the existence of compact minimal submanifolds in noncompact manifolds.
Abstract: In this project we develop two complementary approaches to identifying obstructions to the existence of compact minimal submanifolds inside of noncompact spaces. We use techniques from conformal geometry and PDE. This is joint work with Jeffrey Case, Dawit Mengesha and Samuel Pérez-Ayala.
