Ahlfors finiteness theorem

In the mathematical theory of Kleinian groups, the Ahlfors finiteness theorem describes the quotient of the domain of discontinuity by a finitely generated Kleinian group. The theorem was proved by Lars Ahlfors , apart from a gap that was filled by . The Ahlfors finiteness theorem states that if Γ is a finitely-generated Kleinian group with region of discontinuity Ω, thenΩ/Γ has a finite number of components, each of which is a compact Riemann surface with a finite number of points removed.

Introduction to additive combinatorics lecture 10.8 --- A weak form of Freiman's theorem

In this short video I explain how the proof of Freiman's theorem for subsets of Z differs from the proof given earlier for subsets of F_p^N. The answer is not very much: the main differences are due to the fact that cyclic groups of prime order do not have lots of subgroups, so one has to

Applications of analysis to fractional differential equations

I show how to apply theorems from analysis to fractional differential equations. The ideas feature the Arzela-Ascoli theorem and Weierstrass' approximation theorem, leading to a new approach for solvability of certain fractional differential equations. When do fractional differential equ

When do fractional differential equations have maximal solutions?

When do fractional differential equations have maximal solutions? This video discusses this question in the following way. Firstly, a comparison theorem is formulated that involves fractional differential inequalities. Secondly, a sequence of approximative problems involving polynomials
