This afternoon there will be an
Analysis and Probability seminar talk by Kyle Kinneberg, a postdoc at Rice. Kyle will speak about conformal dimension. Hope to see you there!
Seminar Time & Location: 3:15pm in MSB 109A
Title: Conformal dimension of boundaries of planar domains
Abstract: The conformal dimension of a metric space is a quasisymmetric invariant
that is important in hyperbolic geometry. Motivated by quasiconformal
conjugation and equivalence problems for Kleinian limit sets, Julia
sets, and SLE curves, we investigate the conformal dimension of
boundaries of certain planar domains. We will focus primarily on the
boundaries of John domains and prove, building on some ideas developed
by M. Carrasco, that these have conformal dimension equal to 1.
