I will discuss the Green-Tao proof for existence of arbitrarily long arithmetic progressions in the primes. The focus will primarily be on the parts of the proof which are related to notions in complexity theory. In particular, I will try to...

Quantum chaos is concerned with properties of eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of "quantized Hamiltonians". For instance, can classical chaos be detected by looking at the spacings between eigenvalues? Another problem is if classical ergodicity forces...

Research in the area of privacy of data analysis has been flourishing recently, with a rigorous notion such as differential privacy regarding the desired level of privacy and sanitizing algorithms matching the definition for many problems. Most of...

Simple cell decompositions of surfaces are in one to one correspondence with certain conjugacy classes of subgroups of the modular group. Polycrystalline structures in 2 dimensional materials give rise to statistical simple cell decompositions of...

We discuss the distribution of the extreme eigenvalues for several classes of large (N X N) Hermitian random matrices. For a class of sparse matrices, the distribution is approximately Tracy--Widom. For band matrices with band width W(N) , the...

In the 21st-century approach to p-adic Hodge theory, one studies local Galois representations (and related objects) by converting them into modules over certain power series rings carrying certain extra structures (Frobenius actions and derivations)...
