The Mathematics of Liquid Crystals
In this talk, I will first discuss how to describe elastic deformations
in systems with partial translational orders and orientational orders.
I will then discuss how to incorporate the effects of thermal and quenched fluctuations into elasticity theory.
Finally I will address the anomalous elasticity of ideal nematic elastomers in presence of
thermal as well as quenched fluctuations.
