In this talk we will discuss global well-posedness and scattering for the defocusing, cubic 3D problem with radial data. To prove this it is useful to use hyperbolic coordinates.

We give an introduction to parking functions, give basic counts, and discuss a generalization to trees. In this latter setting we look at using generating functions to help efficiently count the number of these parking functions.

If you add an edge to a random graph, do its conductance properties almost always get better? Perhaps surprisingly the answer is no, and I will discuss how this is connected to delocalization properties of eigenvectors. This is based on joint work with Ronen Eldan and Tselil Schramm.
