Topic:
Symmetry and rigidity in sandpiles
Description:
The Abelian sandpile growth model has a fascinating fractal structure. I will give an overview of what we know on deterministic and random lattices and discuss several open questions.
There are connections to circle packings, rational approximation, and stochastic homogenization.
Joint work with William Cooperman and Paul Dario.
