We consider "local-update" Markov chains for sampling from independent sets and proper 3-colourings of a graph. An example of such a chain is the well-known Glauber dynamics, which updates the state of at most one vertex of the graph at each step...

In this talk, I will give applications of Kedlaya's recent results on p-adic differential equations. In particular, I will give a new proof of Colmez-Fontaine's theorem which describes semistable p-adic representations.

I will discuss some (very) recent results showing how techniques from the theory of Gaussian Hilbert spaces can be used in order to solve a number of open problems regarding boolean functions with low influences. I will survey some of the background...

We will discuss a new construction of space-times in the title with $\Lambda > 0$ or $\Lambda = 0$ based on solving the Cauchy problem for a conformally invariant system of equations formed from the Fefferman-Graham (ambient obstruction) tensor.

"We give an overview of the ideas and techniques relating these seemingly different subjects. I will start from the classical examples, such as enumeration of triangulations by means of one matrix model and counting of colored graphs (Ising model on...

Suppose E is an elliptic curve defined over a number field K, and p is a prime where E has good ordinary reduction. The usual methods of Iwasawa theory give a single Iwasawa module from which one can recover the Selmer groups of E over all finite...

A low-distortion embedding between two metric spaces is a mapping which preserves the distances between each pair of points, up to a small factor called distortion. Low-distortion embeddings have recently found numerous applications in computer...
