The talk introduces the Kazhdan-Lusztig categories of representations of affine Lie algebras

An exceptionally gifted mathematician and an extremely complex person, Floer exhibited, as one friend put it, a “radical individuality.” He viewed the world around him with a singularly critical way of thinking and a quintessential disregard for...

(This lecture is related to the preceding lecture, but I will try to make it self-contained as much as possible.) In this lecture I will elaborate on some of the existing mathematical approaches to the study of random CSPs, particularly involving...

I will present a finite-dimensional quiver algebra whose representations are equivalent to the category of Schubert-constructible perverse sheaves on the Grassmannian $Gr(k,n)$. The functor inducing the equivalence is constructed by analyzing the...

In the mid 80's, Bourgain asked the following question: Is there a universal constant $c>0$ such that every compact convex set $K$ in $R^n$, of unit volume, must contain a slice (namely, a set of the form $K \cap H$ for some affine hyperplane $H$)...

I will describe recent progress in determination of asymptotic behavior in random constraint satisfaction problems, including the independent set problem on random graphs, random regular NAE-SAT, and random SAT. The results include sharp phase...
