Efficient verification of computation is fundamental to computer science and is at the heart of the P vs. NP question. Recently it has had growing practical significance, especially with the increasing popularity of blockchain technologies and cloud...

In this talk, I will describe the construction of contact structures on higher-dimensional spheres with exotic fillability properties. These can then me implemented on more general manifolds via connected sum, yielding a host of exotic higher...

Let p be a prime. I want to explain how to use the geometry of modular curves at infinite level and the Hodge–Tate period map to study regular de Rham p-adic Galois representations appearing in the p-adically completed cohomology of modular curves...

I will discuss exact solvability results (in a sense) for scaling limits of interface crossings in critical random-cluster models in the plane with various general boundary conditions.

The results are rigorous for the FK-Ising model, Bernoulli...

In the second half of the 19th century, it was discovered that algebra and geometry had nothing to do with each other. I will discuss this fact and some consequences.

Solitons are particle-like solutions to dispersive evolution equations whose shapes persist as time evolves. In some situations, these solitons appear due to the balance between nonlinear effects and dispersion, in other situations their existence...

The "intersectivity lemma" states that if a ∈ (0,1) and A_n, n ∈ N,  are measurable sets in a probability space (X,m) satisfying  m(A_n) ≥ a for all n, then there exist a subsequence n_k, k ∈ N, which has positive upper density and such that the...

It is an open question as to whether the prime numbers contain the sum A+B of two infinite sets of natural numbers A, B (although results of this type are known assuming the Hardy-Littlewood prime tuples conjecture).  Using the Maynard sieve and the...
