On structure results for intertwining operators
The intertwining wave operators are basic objects in the
scattering theory of a Hamiltonian given as the sum of a Laplacian
with a potential. These Hamiltonians are the classical Schroedinger
operators of quantum mechanics. For the three dimensional...
Applications of twisted technology
Christoph Thiele
Recently we proved with Durcik, Kovac, Skreb variational
estimates providing sharp quantitative norm convergence results for
bilinear ergodic averages with respect to two commuting
transformations. The proof uses so called twisted technology...
Homological mirror symmetry for the pair of pants
Homological mirror symmetry postulates a derived equivalence
between the wrapped Fukaya category of an exact symplectic manifold
and a category of coherent sheaves or matrix factorizations on a
mirror space. This talk will provide an introduction to...
Mirror symmetry for $T^*P^1$ and conjectural models for Khovanov homology
Consider $T^*P^1$ as the B-model of a mirror equivalence. It
turns out that the A-model mirror depends on choices and I will
describe two of these mirrors: one with underlying symplectic
manifold the complement of a conic in $T^*S^2$, and the
other...
Applications of monotone constraint satisfaction
Recently, a certain "monotone" version of the constraint
satisfaction problem has proved an extremely useful tool for
attacking problems in circuit, communication, and proof complexity
theory. In this talk we discuss this version of the
constraint...
Extremal problems in combinatorial geometry
Orit Raz
Combinatorial geometry is a field that studies combinatorial
problems that involve some simple geometric objects/notions, such
as: lines, points, distances, collinearity. While such problems are
often easy to state, some of them are very difficult...

Continuous covers on symplectic manifolds
François Lalonde
In this talk, we first introduce the notion of a continuous
cover of a manifold parametrised by any compact manifold
endowed with a mass 1 volume-form. We prove that any such cover
admits a partition of unity where the usual sum is replaced
by...
