Expander graphs have been perhaps one of the most widely useful classes of graphs ever considered. In this talk we will focus on a fairly weak notion of expanders called sublinear expanders, first introduced by Komlos and Szemeredi around 25 years...

A central topic in the theory of computation is derandomization: say we have an algorithm which flips coins to achieve some goal, and succeeds with high probability. Can we transform this algorithm into a deterministic procedure, while maintaining...

I will explain recent progress on computing approximate ground states of mean-field spin glass Hamiltonians, which are certain random functions in high dimension. While the asymptotic ground state energy OPT is given by the famous Parisi formula...

A Diophantine upper bound on the dimensions of certain spaces of holonomic functions was the main ingredient in our proof with Calegari and Tang of the 'unbounded denominators conjecture' (presented by Tang in last year's number theory seminar) from...
