DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Spurred by continued advances in computational method
 s\, nanofabrication\, and material synthesis\, development of general-purp
 ose electromagnetic solvers have been principally driven by the tantalizin
 g possibility of accessing the full wave physics contained in Maxwell’s 
 equations. Such developments have in turn raised questions pertaining to t
 he underlying physical limitations of optical devices. Functioning as comp
 lements to large-scale structural optimization or 'inverse design'\, the s
 tudy of fundamental limits on optical processes has grown from a disparate
  collection of situation-specific and heuristic results into sophisticated
  general-purpose optimization techniques aimed at understanding the interp
 lay of fundamental physics and optimal device performance. In this talk\, 
 we present an overview of recent developments in this area and their appli
 cations to light scattering\, light–matter interactions\, fluctuation ph
 enomena\, optical transformations\, and communication.\n\nSpeaker(s): Prof
