Hermann Weyl Lectures

Fourier Uniqueness and Interpolation I, II, III
11:00am|Simonyi Hall 101 and Remote Access - see Zoom link below

Can we reconstruct a function by knowing only a subset of its values and a subset of the values of the function's Fourier transform?
How many values do we need to know for such a reconstruction? Can we interpolate a given subset of values? What are...

Joint IAS/Princeton Arithmetic Geometry Seminar

What is the K-theory of the Complex Numbers?
Dustin Clausen
4:30pm|Simonyi Hall 101 and Remote Access

I will explain what the question means and how to make it precise. Then I will give a conjectural answer. This is based on joint work with Peter Scholze.

Members' Colloquium

On the Birational Geometry of Matroids
2:00pm|Simonyi 101 and Remote Access

The theory of matroids provides a unified abstract treatment of the concept of dependence in linear algebra and graph theory. In this talk we explain Bergman fans of matroids, and we investigate isomorphisms of Bergman fans for different fan...

Symplectic Geometry Seminar

Locally Maximal Closed Orbits of Reeb Flows
Marco Mazzucchelli
12:30pm|Simonyi 101 and Remote Access

A compact invariant set of a flow is called locally maximal when it is the largest invariant set in some neighborhood. In this talk, based on joint work with Erman Cineli, Viktor Ginzburg, and Basak Gurel, I will present a "forced existence" result...

Special Seminar on Homological Stability and Number Theory

Uniform Twisted Homological Stability
Dan Petersen
4:00pm|Simonyi Hall101

Homological stability is now well established as an organizing principle and computational tool in algebraic topology and other areas. In many cases it is of interest to obtain homological stability with twisted coefficients, and the standard choice...

Condensed Learning Seminar

Analytic Rings
2:30pm|Princeton University, Fine Hall 314

This talk is an introduction to analytic rings. Some examples and non-examples will be covered. Some nice properties of the module categories will be proved.

Analysis and Mathematical Physics

Optimization Problem Over the Space of Functions with Second Order Bounded Variation
Camillo Brena
2:30pm|Simonyi Hall 101 and Remote Access

This talk is a discussion about the extremal points of the unit ball with respect to the Hessian-Schatten variation seminorm, i.e. the total variation of the second distributional differential with respect to the Schatten matrix norm. The main...

Joint IAS/Princeton/Montreal/Paris/Tel-Aviv Symplectic Geometry Zoominar

The Subleading Asymptotics of Symplectic Weyl Laws,
Oliver Edtmair
9:15am|Remote Access

Spectral invariants defined via Embedded Contact Homology (ECH) or the closely related Periodic Floer Homology (PFH) satisfy a Weyl law: Asymptotically, they recover symplectic volume. This Weyl law has led to striking applications in dynamics...

Joint PU/IAS Number Theory

Moments of Families of Quadratic L-Functions Over Function Fields Via Homotopy Theory
Dan Petersen
4:30pm|Institute for Advanced Study, Simonyi Hall, Room 101

This is a report of joint work with Bergström-Diaconu-Westerland and Miller-Patzt-Randal-Williams.

Based on random matrix theory, Conrey-Farmer-Keating-Rubinstein-Snaith have conjectured precise asymptotics for moments of families of quadratic L...
