Consider the flow of ideal incompressible fluid in a bounded 2-d domain $M$ (say, $M= 3DT^2$, the 2-d torus). In the Lagrange formulation, the flow is a geodesic $f_t$ on the group $SDif f(M)$ of volume-preserving diffeomorphisms of $M$ with respect...

For modern SAT solvers based on DPLL with clause learning, the two major bottlenecks are the time and memory used by the algorithm. This raises the question of whether this memory bottleneck is inherent to Resolution based approaches, or an artifact...

Pseudo-holomorphic curves play a fundamental role in the study of symplectic manifolds. Compactness and gluing theorems allow to extract algebra out of analysis. The focus of this talk are certain invariants which are constructed using pseudo...

Given two monotone polynomials f,g, their unifier is a pair of monotone polynomials u,v such that f=cu+v and g=u+cv, for some c>0. The problem I will discuss is: can we have monotone polynomials f,g which have a unifier, they can be computed by a...

A bihermitian metric (or generalized Kahler structure) involves a pair of complex structures and a metric compatible with both. The study of these is closely related to that of holomorphic Poisson structures on a manifold. A deformation theorem for...

We consider a generalization of Serre's conjecture for irreducible, conjugate self-dual Galois representations rho : G_F --> GL_3(\bar F_p), where F is an imaginary quadratic field in which p splits. We previously gave a conjecture for the possible...
