DESCRIPTION:Isoperimetric inequalities quantify the maximum amount of a fi
 eld one can enclose\, given a certain amount of fence. The answer to this 
 problem on a nice flat field is solving by arranging the fence into a circ
 le\, but as fellow Northeners will know\, fields can get quite bumpy\, whi
 ch demands that we pursue the subject of isoperimetric inequalities on mor
 e general manifolds. \nIn this talk I will introduce the subjects of geome
 tric flows (in particular Mean Curvature flow) and isoperimetric inequalit
 ies on manifolds\, and delve a little into how each can help us with study
 ing the other.
