Does a smooth proper variety in positive characteristic know the Hodge number of its liftings? The answer is "of course not". However, it's not that easy to come up with a counter-example. In this talk, I will first introduce the background of this...

Suppose an agent is in an unknown Markov environment in the absence of a reward signal, what might we hope that an agent can efficiently learn to do? One natural, intrinsically defined, objective problem is for the agent to learn a policy which...

In 1987, Barry Mazur and John Tate formulated refined conjectures of the "Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer type", and one of these conjectures was essentially proved in the prime conductor case by Ehud de Shalit in 1995. One of the main objects in de...

Given a bounded domain $\Omega$, the harmonic measure $\omega$ is a probability measure on $\partial \Omega$ and it characterizes where a Brownian traveller moving in $\Omega$ is likely to exit the domain from. The elliptic measure is a non...

Given a domain, the harmonic measure is a measure that relates any boundary function to its harmonic extension; it is also the hitting probability of the boundary for a Brownian motion moving inside the domain. We will talk about the relationship...
