Special Year Workshop on p-adic Arithmetic Geometry

Generic Character Sheaves for Parahoric Subgroups
Charlotte Chan
10:00am|Simonyi 101 and Remote Access

Lusztig's theory of character sheaves for connected reductive groups is one of the most important developments in representation theory in the last few decades. In this talk, we will describe a construction which extends this "depth zero" picture to...

Special Year Workshop on p-adic Arithmetic Geometry

Cristallinity of Rigid Flat Connections Revisited
Hélène Esnault
4:30pm|Simonyi 101 and Remote Access

We develop on a new strategy based on point-set topology, which allows us to produce a purely p-adic statement for the crystallinity properties of rigid flat connections. 

Joint with Michael Groechenig.

Special Year Workshop on p-adic Arithmetic Geometry

The p-adic Simpson Correspondence for Torsors under Commutative Rigid Groups
2:30pm|Simonyi Hall 101 and Remote Access

Let X be a proper, smooth rigid space and G a commutative rigid group. We study the relationship between G-representations of the fundamental group of X and G-Higgs bundles on X. This is joint work with Ben Heuer and Mingjia Zhang.

Symplectic Geometry Seminar

Symplectic Capacities of Domains Close to a Ball and Geodesics in the Space of Contact Forms
Alberto Abbondandolo
12:30pm|Rubenstein Commons | Meeting Room 5

An old open question in symplectic geometry asks whether all normalised symplectic capacities coincide for convex domains in the standard symplectic vector space. I will show that this question has a positive answer for smooth convex domains which...

Special Year Workshop on p-adic Arithmetic Geometry

Algebraic Frobenius Structures
12:00pm|Simonyi Hall 101 and Remote Access

Given a family of motives, the de Rham realization (a certain vector bundle with integrable "Gauss-Manin" connection) can be compared to the crystalline realizations for various primes p, but the resulting Frobenius structures cannot be directly...

Computer Science/Discrete Mathematics Seminar I

A Definition of Spectral Gap for Nonreversible Markov Chains
11:15am|Wolfensohn Hall and Remote Access

While the notion of spectral gap is a fundamental and very useful feature of reversible Markov chains, there is no standard analogue of this notion for nonreversible chains. In this talk, I will present a simple proposal for spectral gap of...

Analysis and Mathematical Physics

Probabilistic Scaling, Propagation of Randomness and Invariant Gibbs Measures
Andrea Nahmod
2:30pm|Simonyi Hall 101 and Remote Access

In this talk, we will start by describing how classical tools from probability offer a robust framework to understand the dynamics of waves via appropriate ensembles on phase space rather than particular microscopic dynamical trajectories. We will...

Solid Abelian Groups
Juan Esteban Rodriguez Camargo
2:30pm|Princeton University, Fine Hall 314

We will discuss the notion of solid abelian groups.
