Loop Calculus in Statistical Physics and Information Theory
Misha Chertkov
Loop calculus is a new theoretical tool which allows to express
partition function of a statistical inference/physics problem on a
graph in terms of a series. Each term of the series is associated
with a loop on the graph. Utility of the loop...
On the Fundamental Lemma for Weighted Orbital Integrals
The first half of this talk will be devoted to describing
Arthur's variant of the fundamental lemma for weighted orbital
integrals. The second half will discuss a proof of the weighted
fundamental lemma for Sp(4).
Discrete Transitive Actions on the Vertices of Bruhat-Tits Buildings
4:30pm|Princeton University, Fine Hall 214
In this work, joint with A. Mohammadi, we try to classify all
the discrete transitive actions on the vertices of a Bruhat-Tits
Building over a local field of characteristic zero. There are lots
of such actions in the case of Bruhat-Tits tree, i.e...
Micea Mustata
This will be an informal working seminar, trying to understand
the recent paper of Birkar, Cascini, Hacon and McKernan on the
finite generation of canonical rings.
Filtrations in Cohomlogy and Geometry
On a topological space, algebraic topology and homological
algebra endow cohomology groups with various filtrations. In the
case of algebraic varieties, one may wonder if such filtrations,
e.g. the Grothendieck filtration, the Leray filtration, the...

Open Gromov-Witten Theory of the Quintic Threefold
Recently, I defined an open Gromov-Witten invariant for
Lagrangian submanifolds that arise as the real points of a real
symplectic manifold. In this talk, I will discuss a calculation of
the genus zero open Gromov-Witten theory of the Fermat type...

On Geometric Stabilization
I will formulate the geometric interpretation of the
stabilization of (a part) of the geometric side of the trace
formula for Lie algebra. The SL(2) case will be discussed in some
details.
