Title: Can we geometrically sense the shape of a molecule?
Abstract: Can we hear the shape of a drum? This question was negatively answered decades ago by many authors including Gordon, Webb, Wolpert, who constructed non-isometric planar shapes that have the identical eigenvalues of the Laplace operator (Bull.

Tuesday is the day that people first feel immersed in the current week鈥檚 work.

Weddings are planned many months鈥搊r even years鈥搃nto the future, and that can clash with other aspects of the couple鈥檚 lives. When taking on a new job in the months leading up to such a major life event, it鈥檚 tricky to know when to tell your new employer that you鈥檒l need time off in the first months of your tenure. 鈥淢y advice is to wait until you鈥檝e received a formal job offer before discussing it,鈥� says Associate Professor Jean-Nicolas Reyt in The Globe and Mail鈥檚 Nine to Five column.

Historically, pension funds managed their portfolios using a strategic asset allocation approach. Fundamentally, this meant buying a mix of asset classes with the highest probability of achieving the necessary returns, at a level of risk that was acceptable 鈥� or buying and holding. But since the mid-2000s, some large pension funds have adopted a total portfolio approach strategy, which seeks to maximize returns while keeping a portfolio鈥檚 volatility low.
