Computer Science/Discrete Mathematics Seminar II

Optimization, Complexity and Math (or, Can We Prove P!=NP by Gradient Descent?).
Avi Wigderson
10:30am|Simonyi Hall 101 and Remote Access

This talk will summarize a project I was involved in during the past 8 years. It started with attempts to understand the PIT (Polynomial Identity Testing) problem - a central problem involving randomness and hardness. It has led us to pursue many...

Special Seminar

Arthur Packets and Ramanujan Conjecture
Freydoon Shahidi
4:30pm|Simonyi Hall 101 and Remote Access

We start by relating a result on the reducibility of induced representations of a reductive group through local Langlands correspondence to Artin L-functions. Such a result is of interest in the study of the arithmetic theory of intertwining...

Integral Points on Curves via Baker’s Method and Finite ´etale Covers
Bjorn Poonen
12:00pm|Wolfensohn Hall and Remote Access

Abstract: We prove results in the direction of showing that for some affine curves, Baker's method applied to finite étale covers is insufficient to determine the integral points. This is joint work with Aaron Landesman.

Matrix Factorizations and Complete Intersection Rings
Irena Peeva
10:00am|Wolfensohn Hall and Remote Access

Abstract:

Motivated by applications in Invariant Theory, Hilbert introduced an approach to describe the structure of modules by free resolutions. Hilbert's Syzygy Theorem shows that minimal free resolutions over a polynomial ring are finite. Most...

The Spectrum of Elliptic Calabi-Yau Threefolds
Antonella Grassi
2:30pm|Wolfensohn Hall and Remote Access

Abstract: I will discuss a dictionary between the quantities in the spectrum of the string theory compactified on the Calabi-Yau and object in the Calabi-Yau. I will also discuss some properties.
