    • Uniqueness of p-local truncated Brown-Peterson spectra 

      Lee, David Jongwon (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2025-05)
      When p is an odd prime, we prove that the Fp-cohomology of BP⟨n⟩ as a module over the Steenrod algebra determines the p-local spectrum BP⟨n⟩. In particular, we prove that the p-local spectrum BP⟨n⟩ only depends on its ...

    • Characterizing microearthquakes and shallow structure with dense array and optical fibers 

      Chang, Hilary (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2025-05)
      Source properties of small earthquakes, such as source dimension and stress drop, help us to constrain source physics and assess seismic hazards. Small events carry information about the stress state in the subsurface. ...

    • New Regimes for Topology Optimization in Photonics 

      Chen, Mo (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2025-05)
      Inverse design is a powerful methodology to obtain non-trivial and non-intuitive photonic structures of unprecedented performance. Topology optimization is a particular class of inverse design method that has been increasingly ...
