Representation Theory & Categorification
In modern representation theory we often study the category of
modules over an algebra, in particular its intrinsic and
combinatorial structures. Vice versa one can ask the question:
which categories have a given combinatorics? This is the
basic...
Representation Theory & Combinatorics of the Symmetric Group and Related Structures
Monica Vazirani
With an eye toward coordinating with the advanced course, we
will start with the representation theory of the symmetric group
and related combinatorics. We will focus on the functors of
induction and restriction. We will then consider related...
Chelsea Walton
Abstract: This is a tale about my adventures of being trained as
a Ring Theorist to now using Category Theory in my work. This is
something that I certainly did not predict when I defended my
thesis 10 years ago, but the best stories are...
Geometric Categorifications of the Hecke Algebra
Laura Rider
Abstract: In the first part of this talk, I'll explain a
geometric categorification of the Hecke algebra in terms of
perverse sheaves on the flag variety. In the second part, we'll
study the affine Hecke algebra. In this case, there are two...

The Schrodinger equations as inspiration of beautiful mathematics
In the last two decades great progress has been made in the
study of dispersive and wave equations. Over the years the toolbox
used in order to attack highly nontrivial problems related to these
equations has developed to include a collection of...
