Joint IAS/Princeton University Number Theory Seminar

On the arithmetic of elliptic curves over quintic fields
Michele Fornea
4:30pm|*Princeton University, Fine 214*

Bhargava showed that 100% of quintic fields have non-solvable Galois closure. For this reason, the arithmetic of elliptic curves over such fields is beyond the reach of methods based on Heegner points. In this talk we will report on a joint work in...

Joint IAS/Princeton University Number Theory Seminar

Taking the Hecke algebra to its limits
Raphael Steiner
4:30pm|Simonyi Hall 101

We parametrise elements in the full Hecke algebra in a way such that the parametrisation represents a generic automorphic form. By convolving, we then arrive at pre-trace formulas which are modular in three variables. From here, various identities...

PCTS Seminar Series: Deep Learning for Physics

Toward theoretical understanding of deep learning
11:45am|*Princeton University, McDonnell A-02*

“Deep learning” refers to use of neural networks to solve learning problems, including “learning” hidden structures in large and complex data sets. The theory for this field is still in its infancy. Lately physical and biological scientists have...

Scalar Curvature Seminar

Symmetries of Cosmological Cauchy Horizons with Non-Closed Orbits
Jared Speck
2:30pm|Simonyi Hall 101

I will describe my recent works, some joint with M.\,Disconzi and J.\,Luk, on the compressible Euler equations and their relativistic analog. The works concern solutions with non-vanishing vorticity and entropy, under any equation of state. The...
