DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/Geolis/110/"
 >From electrostatics to geodesics in K3 surfaces</a>\nby Gonçalo Oliveira
  (Instituto Superior Técnico\, Universidade de Lisboa) as part of Geometr
 ia em Lisboa (IST)\n\n\nAbstract\nMotivated by some conjectures originatin
 g in the Physics literature\, I have recently been looking for closed geod
 esics in the K3 surfaces constructed by Lorenzo Foscolo. It turns out to b
 e possible to locate several such with high precision and compute their in
 dex (their length is also approximately known). Interestingly\, in my view
 \, the construction of these geodesics is related to an open problem in el
 ectrostatics posed by Maxwell in 1873.\n
