Special Year Seminar I

Combinatorics in Quantum K-theory Schubert Calculus
Cristian Lenart
2:00pm|Simonyi 101

I will discuss various applications of a combinatorial model for the (torus equivariant) quantum K-theory of flag manifolds G/B, called the quantum alcove model. This is a uniform model for all Lie types, based on Weyl group combinatorics. It first...

Joint IAS/PU Groups and Dynamics Seminar

Aspects of the large scale geometry of $\operatorname{Out}(F_n)$
Lee Mosher
4:30pm|Simonyi 101

The theory of hierarchically hyperbolic groups, due to Behrstock, Hagen, and Sisto, was developed by abstracting work of Masur and Minsky on mapping class groups. Study of the large scale geometry of the outer automorphism group $\operatorname{Out}...

Joint IAS/PU Arithmetic Geometry

Strongly compatible systems associated to abelian varieties
3:35pm|Simonyi 101 and Remote Access

Let A be an abelian variety over a number field E ⊂ ℂ. We prove that, after replacing E by a finite extension, the action of Gal(Ē/E) on the ℓ‑adic Tate modules of A gives rise to a strongly compatible system of ℓ‑adic representations valued in the...

Computer Science/Discrete Mathematics Seminar I

Coboundary Expansion Inside Chevalley High-Dimensional Expanders
Ryan O'Donnell
10:30am|Simonyi Hall 101 and Remote Access

In theoretical computer science, an increasingly important role is being played by sparse high-dimensional expanders (HDXs), of which we know two main constructions: "building" HDXs [Ballantine'00, ...] and "coset complex" HDXs [Kaufman--Oppenheim...

Local Persistence of Lagrangian Intersections
Rémi Leclercq
9:15am|Remote Access

Given a Lagrangian L, I will discuss the existence of a neighborhood W of L with the following property: for any Hamiltonian diffeomorphism f, if f(L) is contained inside W, then f(L) intersects L. On the one hand, for any symplectic manifold of...

Joint PU/IAS Number Theory

On the Geometry and Arithmetic of Non-Spherical Maass Forms
3:30pm|Simonyi 101 and Remote Access

Central predictions of arithmetic quantum chaos such as the Quantum Unique Ergodicity conjecture and the sup-norm problem ask about the mass distribution of automorphic forms, most classically in terms of their weight or Laplace eigenvalue (for...
