Computer Science/Discrete Mathematics Seminar II

On the Complexity of Matrix Multiplication and Other Tensors
Joseph Landsberg
10:30am|S-101

Many problems from complexity theory can be phrased in terms of tensors. I will begin by reviewing basic properties of tensors and discussing several measures of the complexity of a tensor. I'll then focus on the complexity of matrix multiplication...

Members’ Seminar

Univalent Foundations
2:00pm|S-101

This talk is intended for a general audience. The recent discovery of an interpretation of constructive type theory into abstract homotopy theory has led to a new approach to foundations with both intrinsic geometric content and a computational...

Joint IAS/Princeton University Symplectic Geometry Seminar

Abstract Analogues of Flux as Symplectic Invariants
4:30pm|S-101

This talk is part of a circle of ideas that one could call ``categorical dynamics''. We look at how objects of the Fukaya category move under deformations prescribed by fixing an odd degree quantum cohomology class. This is an analogue of moving...

Galois Representations for Regular Algebraic Cuspidal Automorphic Forms
4:30pm|S-101

To any essentially self-dual, regular algebraic (ie cohomological) automorphic representation of GL(n) over a CM field one knows how to associate a compatible system of l-adic representations. These l-adic representations occur (perhaps slightly...
