In this talk we will review some known resul ts and present some new ones on properties of the semi-infinite geodesics and shock-like structures. Connections are made to Busemann functions and competition interfaces. Joint work with Chris Janjigian (Utah) and Timo Se ppalainen (Madison-Wisconsin).\n DTSTART:20190429T180000Z DTEND:20190429T190000Z LOCATION:Room 920\, Burnside Hall\, CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3A 0B9\, 805 rue Sherbrooke Ouest SUMMARY:Charlie Smart (University of Chicago) URL:/mathstat/channels/event/charlie-smart-university- chicago-296475 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
