Joint IAS/Princeton University Number Theory Seminar

Spacing and a Large Sieve Type Inequality for Roots of a Cubic Congruence
Matthew Welsh
4:30pm|Princeton University, Fine 214

Proving the equidistribution of roots of quadratic congruences, with strong estimates on the Weyl sums, is one of the most spectacular applications of the spectral theory of automorphic forms to arithmetic. See for example Duke, Friedlander and...

Joint IAS/Princeton University Symplectic Geometry Seminar

Quantum footprints of symplectic rigidity
Leonid Polterovich
3:30pm|Simonyi Hall 101

We discuss interactions between quantum mechanics and symplectic topology including a link between symplectic displacement energy, a fundamental notion of symplectic dynamics, and the quantum speed limit, a universal constraint on the speed of...
