We introduce and study a new complexity function in combinatorics on words, which takes into account the smallest return time of a factor of an infinite word. We characterize the eventually periodic words and the Sturmian words by means of 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...

When a biological system is modeled using a mathematical process, the following step is normally to estimate the system parameters. Despite the numerous computational and statistical techniques, estimating parameters for complex systems can...

Persistent homology produces invariants which take the form of barcodes, or nite collections of intervals. There are various structures one can imposed on them to yield a useful organization of the space of all barcodes. In addition, there...

Fitch is a formal proof system recently gaining momentum in logic education due to its structural similarity to human reasoning. We introduce Fitch via its web-implementation at http://www.proofmood.com. Then we compare Fitch with more well-...

Sullivan sketched a proof of his structural stability theorem for differentiabl group actions satisfying certain expansion-hyperbolicity axioms. We relax Sullivan’s axioms and introduce a notion of meandering hyperbolicity for group a...

We present a mathematical justification of cloaking due to anomalous localized resonance (CALR). We consider the dielectric problem with a source term in a structure with a layer of plasmonic material. Using layer potentials and symmetrizati...

It has been more than thirty years since white noise analysis was launched systematically. It is now a good time to have an overview of the theory and to reflect on its advantages in order to anticipate further developments of this theory. O...

In this talk, numerical methods to solve second-order elliptic partial dierential equations will be presented. First, some of the existing methods, such as the standard Galerkin method, mixed nite element methods etc., will be briey discusse...

Sheaf quantization of Hamiltonian isotopies and non-displacability problems

국제수학자대회(ICM, International Congress of Mathematicians)는 1897년 쮜리히에서 처음 개최되었고, 매 4년마다 개최된다. 100여국 4천여 명 정도의 규모로 9일 동안 계속된다. 우리시대 최고의 수학자들이 참여하며, 필즈상(Fields Medal)을 개막식에서 ...

There are three Bieberbach theorems on flat Riemannian manifolds; characterization, rigidity and finiteness. These extend to almost flat manifolds. We discuss characterization, rigidity and finiteness of infra-nilmanifolds (almost flat manif...

Concordance is a relation which classifies knots in 3-space via surfaces in 4-space, and it is closely related with low dimensional topology. Satellite operators are one of the main tools in the study of knot concordance, and it has been wi...

In this talk, we will consider the hyperbolic Kac-Moody algebra associated to a certain rank 3 Cartan matrix and generalized Kac-Moody algebras that contain the hyperbolic Kac-Moody algebra. The denominator funtions of the generalized Kac-Mo...

Magnetic Resonance Electrical Impedance Tomography (MREIT) is a late medical imaging modality visualizing static conductivity images of electrically conducting subjects. When we inject current into the object, it produces internal distributi...

The original Riemann-Hilbert problem is to construct a liner ordinary differential equation with regular singularities whose solutions have a given monodromy. Nowadays, it is formulated as a categorical equivalence of the category of regular...

We will talk about the Fourier restriction theorems for non-degenerate and degenerate curves in Euclidean space Rd. This problem was first studied by E. M. Stein and C. Fefferman for the circle and sphere, and it still remains an unsolved pr...

There are some phenomena called "regularization by noise" in nonlinear evolution equations. This means that if you add a noise to the system, the system would have a better property than without noise. As one of examples, I will explain this...
