Modular forms and optimization in Euclidean space
Maryna Viazovska
4:30pm|Fine 214, Princeton University

In this talk we will show how modular forms can be applied to energy minimization problems in Euclidean space. Namely, we will explain Cohn-Elkies linear programming method and present explicit constructions of corresponding certificate functions...

HMS started with Kontsevich's 1994 ICM address. By now, it is a mature area of mathematics in its own right, but still one that can be approached from many...

Divisibility of coefficients of modular forms
4:30pm|Fine 214, Princeton University

I will explain two recent results concerning non-zero coefficients of modular forms modulo a prime $p$. The first result, a joint work with K. Soundararajan, gives an asymptotic equivalent for the number of such coefficients. The second is concerned...
