Professor Luis Lehner, Research Faculty Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics
Numerical Relativity, overview and its future challenges
Numerical simulations of Einstein equations are key to unravel consequences of General Relativity both for fundamental questions and for predictions necessary for detecting and decoding gravitational waves. The current success of this program relies on a healthy interplay between physics and mathematics. This talk will summarize some key aspects of this enterprise, illustrate with some examples and discuss some future challenges

The University of Waterloo acknowledges that much of our work takes place on the traditional territory of the Neutral, Anishinaabeg and Haudenosaunee peoples. Our main campus is situated on the Haldimand Tract, the land granted to the Six Nations that includes six miles on each side of the Grand River. Our active work toward reconciliation takes place across our campuses through research, learning, teaching, and community building, and is co-ordinated within the Office of Indigenous Relations.
