Title: Random Minkowski Theorem
Speaker: Gregory Margulis, Yale University
Abstract: This is a joint work with J.S.Athreya. Let n>1. We prove that the measure of the set of unimodular lattices in R^n that does not intersect a "large" volume subset of R^n is "small". This can be considered as a "random" analog of the classical Minkowski theorem in the geometry of numbers.
