Analysis/Mathematical Physics Seminar

Universality in numerical computations with random data. Case studies.
Percy Deift
11:00am|S-101

This is joint work with Govind Menon, Sheehan Olver and Thomas Trogdon. The speaker will present evidence for universality in numerical computations with random data. Given a (possibly stochastic) numerical algorithm with random input data, the time...

Length and width of Lagrangian cobordisms
3:10pm|S-101

In this talk, I will discuss two measurements of Lagrangian cobordisms between Legendrian submanifolds in symplectizations: their length and their relative Gromov width. The Gromov width, in particular, is a fundamental global invariant of...

Monotone Lagrangians in cotangent bundles
Luis Diogo
1:30pm|S-101

We show that there is a 1-parameter family of monotone Lagrangian tori in the cotangent bundle of the 3-sphere with the following property: every compact orientable monotone Lagrangian with non-trivial Floer cohomology is not Hamiltonian...
