학부생을 위한 ε 강연회: Mathematics from the theory of entanglement
The notion of entanglement is now considered as a basic resource for the current quantum information and quantum computation theory. We discuss what kinds of mathematics are related to the theory. They include operator algebras, matrix theor...
The main topic of the talk is a determinantal formula for high dimensional tree numbers of acyclic complexes via combinatorial Laplace operators . This result is a generalization of Temperley's tree number formula for graphs, motivated by a ...
Fefferman's program and Green functions in conformal geometry
Motivated by the analysis of the singularity of the Bergman kernel of a strictly pseudoconvex domain, Charlie Fefferman launched in the late 70s the program of determining all local biholomorphic invariants of strictly pseudoconvex domain. T...
The mapping class group of a surface S is the component group of orientation-preserving homeomorphisms on S. We survey geometric and algebraic aspects of this group, and introduce a technique of using right-angled Artin groups to find geomet...
In 1980s, Donaldson discovered his famous invariant of 4-manifolds which was subsequently proved to be an integral on the moduli space of semistable sheaves when the 4-manifold is an algebraic surface. In 1994, the Seiberg-Witten invariant w...
Random conformal geometry of Coulomb gas formalism
Several cluster interfaces in 2D critical lattice models have been proven to have conformally invariant scaling limits, which are described by SLE(Schramm-Loewner evolution) process, a family of random fractal curves. As the remarkable achie...
A W-algebra is introduced as a symmetry algebra in 2-dimensional conformal field theory. Mathematical realization of a W-algebra was introduced by the theory of vertex algebras. Especially, W-algebras related to Lie superalgebras have been s...
<학부생을 위한 ɛ 강연> Geometry and algebra of computational complexity
학부생을 위한 이 강연에서는 고전적 튜링 기계의 기본적 정의로부터 시작하여 • 튜링기계를 비롯한 다양한 컴퓨터 모델의 복잡도 개념; • 계산(불)가능성 – 특히 디오판틴 방정식의 알고리즘적 해결법 (힐버트의 10번째 문제); • Non-deterministic 튜링 기계...
Ill-posedness for incompressible Euler equations at critical regularit
We obtain a quantitative and robust proof that incompressible fluid models are strongly ill-posed in critical Sobolev spaces, in the sense that norm inflation and even nonexistence occur for critical initial data. We then show how to use th...
WGAN with an Infinitely wide generator has no spurious stationary points
Generative adversarial networks (GAN) are a widely used class of deep generative models, but their minimax training dynamics are not understood very well. In this work, we show that GANs with a 2-layer infinite-width generator and a 2-layer...
<학부생을 위한 ɛ 강연> Symplectic geometry and the three-body problem
We describe some of the history of the three-body problem and how it lead to symplectic geometry. We start by sketching Poincare’s prize-winning work, and discuss how it lead to the birth of the fields of dynamical systems and symplec...
<정년퇴임 기념강연> Hardy, Beurling, and invariant subspaces
The invariant subspace problem is one of the longstanding open problem in the field of functional analysis and operator theory. It is due to J. von Neumann (in 1932) and is stated as: Does every operator have a nontrivial invariant subspace...
Diophantine equations and moduli spaces with nonlinear symmetry
A fundamental result in number theory is that, under certain linear actions of arithmetic groups on homogeneous varieties, the integral points of the varieties decompose into finitely many orbits. For a classical example, the set of integra...
Sufficient conditions for the Jensen polynomials of the derivatives of a real entire function to be hyperbolic are obtained. The conditions are given in terms of the growth rate and zero distribution of the function. As a consequence some r...
초록: Let X be a homogeneous space for a Lie group G. A (G,X)-structure on a manifold M is an atlas of coordinate charts valued in X, such that the changes of coordinates locally lie in G. It is a fundamental question to ask how many ways o...
