The talk introduces the Kazhdan-Lusztig equivalence between the Kazhdan-Lusztig category of representations of affine algebra and category of modules over the quantum group.

Originating in the work of Hadamard in the 1890’s on the coding of geodesic flow, symbolic dynamics has become a key tool for studying topological, smooth, and measurable dynamical systems. The automorphism group of a symbolic system capture its...

Dr. Monica Vazirani is a professor at UC Davis.  She received her PhD from UC Berkeley in 1999, after which she had an NSF postdoc she spent at UC San Diego and UC Berkeley, as well as postdoctoral positions at MSRI and Caltech.  Dr. Vazirani's...

I'll discuss joint work with Zhiwei Yun constructing a natural functor from the automorphic category of a nodal curve to the automorphic category of a smoothing. The results depend on the microlocal geometry of sheaves with nilpotent singular...

Algorithms make predictions about people constantly.  The spread of such prediction systems has raised concerns that algorithms may exhibit unfair discrimination, especially against individuals from minority groups.  While it's easy to speculate on...
