If X is a smooth proper rigid variety over C_p and L is a Z_p-local system on X, the cohomology groups H*(X,L) are finitely generated Z_p-modules by a basic result of Scholze. If L is merely a Q_p-local system, its cohomology groups are still finite...

Geometric and functional inequalities are fundamental in various mathematical areas, such as the calculus of variations, partial differential equations, and geometry. Classic examples encompass the isoperimetric inequality, Sobolev inequalities, and...

A principal challenge in realizing the potential of quantum computing lies in our ability to perform computations fault-tolerantly, in the presence of the noise inherent to quantum devices. Non-Clifford quantum gates, which are analogous to the...

I will discuss recent results for algebraicity of critical values of Spin L-functions for GSp_6. I will also discuss ongoing work toward the construction of p-adic L-functions interpolating these values. I will explain how this work fits into the...

In the 1970s, Viro's method paved an important path in the study of the topology of real algebraic varieties and became a precursor to tropical geometry. This method involves subdividing an integer polytope and using the information from each of its...

After a short crash course in using Lean to formalize mathematics, we will discuss potential applications to and implications for mathematics education, publication, and research.

Torus-orbit closures in Grassmannians or flag varieties are closely related to matroid theory. I will review some known properties of these torus-orbit closures, with an emphasis on some open problems which are related to Schubert calculus.

In 1999, Pitman and Stanley introduced the polytope bearing their name along with a study of its faces, lattice points, and volume. This polytope is well-studied due to its connections to parking functions, lattice path matroids, generalized...

The plan of the talk is to describe joint work with A. Brown and Z. Wang on the smooth classification of actions of lattices in $\mathrm{SL}(n,\mathbb{R})$ on $n-1$ dimensional manifolds. The method is also amenable to show rigidity for some...

A minimal partition is a decomposition of a manifold into disjoint sets that minimizes a spectral energy functional. In the bipartite case minimal partitions are closely related to eigenfunctions of the Laplacian, but in the non-bipartite case they...
