Research in Retirement: Blake Temple
Recent emeritus Blake Temple is keeping busy reporting on new results. He recently gave a talk in Taiwan about his joint work with prior UC Davis graduate and long time collaborator Moritz Reintjes, “On the Essential Regularity of Singular Connections in Geometry.” The talk featured work for an upcoming paper focused on Regularity Transformation Equations (RT-equations), an elliptic, non-invariant system of equations which determine the Jacobians of coordinate transformations which (locally) lift the regularity of a connection to one derivative above the regularity of its Riemann curvature tensor.

Blake’s work can be found on the arXiv, including some recent papers published this past academic year.
Recent works include Time-periodic solutions of the compressible Euler equations and the Nonlinear Theory of Sound with Robin Young, and Shock-Wave Refinement of the Friedmann-Robertson-Walker Metric with Christopher Alexander and Joel Smoller.
