Analysis and Mathematical Physics

Probabilistic Scaling, Propagation of Randomness and Invariant Gibbs Measures
Andrea Nahmod
2:30pm|Simonyi Hall 101 and Remote Access

In this talk, we will start by describing how classical tools from probability offer a robust framework to understand the dynamics of waves via appropriate ensembles on phase space rather than particular microscopic dynamical trajectories. We will...

Joint PU/IAS Number Theory

The Shintani–Faddeev Modular Cocycle
Gene Kopp
4:30pm|Simonyi 101 and Remote Access

We ask the question, “how does the infinite $q$-Pochhammer symbol transform under modular transformations?” and connect the answer to that question to the Stark conjectures. The infinite $q$-Pochhammer symbol transforms by a generalized factor of...

Mathematical Conversations

Lambda Rings, Random Matrices, and L-Functions
6:00pm|Birch Garden, Simons Hall

Classical probability theory is set up to handle random variables whose values are a single complex number. What happens if our random variable is instead a multi-set of complex numbers? For example, on the group of n by n orthogonal matrices, you...

Special Seminar on Sphere Packing

Sphere Packings, Spectral Gaps and the Conformal Bootstrap
Dalimil Mazac
4:30pm|Simonyi Hall 101 and Remote Access

I will discuss infinite-dimensional linear programs producing bounds on the spectral gap in various settings. This includes new bounds on the spectral gap of hyperbolic manifolds as well as the Cohn+Elkies bound on the density of sphere packings...

Special Year Seminar

The Analytic de Rham Stack
Juan Esteban Rodriguez Camargo
2:00pm|Simonyi 101 and Remote Access

In this talk, we introduce the analytic de Rham stack for rigid varieties over $Q_p$ (and more general analytic stacks). This object is an analytic incarnation of the (algebraic) de Rham stack of Simpson, and encodes a theory of analytic D-modules...
