In other words\ , the areas of these surfaces must cover the whole unit sphere after a pro per rearrangement. We refer to this lower bound of total areas as the Sphe re Covering Inequality. This inequality and its generalizations are applie d to a number of open problems related to Moser-Trudinger type inequalitie s\, mean field equations and Onsager vortices\, etc\, and yield optimal re sults. In particular we confirm the best constant of a Moser-Truidinger ty pe inequality conjectured by A. Chang and P. Yang in 1987. This is a joint work Changfeng Gui.\n\nJoin Zoom Meeting\n\nhttps://umontreal.zoom.us/j/8 9528730384?pwd=IF10Cg8C0YfogaBlL6F1NboPaQvAaV.1\n\nMeeting ID: 895 2873 03 84\n\nPasscode: 077937\n\n \n DTSTART:20240913T180000Z DTEND:20240913T190000Z SUMMARY:Amir Moradifam (UC Riverside) URL:/mathstat/channels/event/amir-moradifam-uc-riversi de-359561 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
