On relations between geometry and topology of hyperbolic 3-manifolds

Monopoles and Maxwell

Sung to the tune of "Monorail" from the Simpsons:
What if they're not here at all?
Then the Standard Model falls.

Why are they so hard to find?
That's beyond my meager mind.

Why believe this incarnation?
It would explain charge quantization.

To bring Maxwell's symmetries forth,
we need a South without a North!

Monopole! (What's that word?)
Monopole! (That name again?)
MONOPOLE!

In this talk I'll give a quick and dirty derivation of Maxwell's equations, and discuss how they're almost symmetrical. I'll then mention how this "almost" problem can be fixed, and then derive an amazing result. Namely, that if there exists one magnetic monopole, anywhere in the universe, then it implies charge quantization!

Title

The goal of this Colloquium is to encourage interaction among graduate students, specifically between graduate students who are actively researching a problem and those who have not yet started their research. Speakers will discuss their research or a related introductory topic on a level which should be accessible to nonspecialists. The discussions will be geared toward graduate students in the beginning of their program, but all are invited to attend. This invitation explicitly includes undergraduate students.
