Verlinde Dimension Formula for the Space of Conformal Blocks and the moduli of G-bundles
10:15am|Simonyi 101 and Remote Access

Let G be a simply-connected complex semisimple algebraic group and let C be a smooth projective curve of any genus. Then, the moduli space of semistable G-bundles on C admits so called determinant line bundles. E. Verlinde conjectured a remarkable...

Experimental Evaluation of Computer-Assisted Human Decision Making: A Missing Data Approach
Kosuke Imai
11:55am|Virtual

Abstract: In today’s data-driven society, human beings still make most critical decisions and yet they are increasingly utilizing recommendations produced by statistical and machine learning methods. Given the prevalence of this approach in many...

Causal inference with binary outcomes subject to both missingness and misclassification
Grace Yi
1:30pm|Virtual

Abstract: Causal inference has been widely conducted in various fields and many methods have been proposed for different settings. However, for noisy data with both mismeasurements and missing observations, those methods often break down. In this...

Regularization and spurious correlations in sparse single-cell transcriptomes
Mickey Atwal
2:45pm|Virtual

Abstract: Recent advances in biotechnology and genomics have generated dizzying amounts of large, noisy, and sparse datasets that require concomitant development of machine learning methods. The analyses of single-cell RNA-seq data have driven the...

Modular Perverse Sheaves on the affine Flag Variety
Laura Rider
3:00pm|Wolfensohn Hall and Remote Access

There are two categorical realizations of the affine Hecke algebra: constructible sheaves on the affine flag variety and coherent sheaves on the Langlands dual Steinberg variety. A fundamental problem in geometric representation theory is to relate...

The integral coefficient geometric Satake equivalence in mixed characteristic
4:30pm|Wolfensohn Hall and Remote Access

The geometric Satake equivalence establishes a link between two categories: the category of spherical perverse sheaves on the affine Grassmannian and the category of representations of the Langlands dual group. It has found many important...

Coherent categorification of quantum loop sl(2)
8:00am|Wolfensohn Hall and Remote Access

We explain an equivalence of categories between a module category of quiver Hecke algebras associated with the Kronecker quiver and a category of equivariant perverse coherent sheaves on the nilpotent cone of type A. This provides a link between two...

The Picard group of the stable module category of a finite group
9:30am|Wolfensohn Hall and Remote Access

The Picard group of the stable module category of a finite group plays a role in many parts of modular representation theory. It was calculated when the group is an abelian $p$-group, by pioneering work of Dade in the 1970's, and a classification...

Path isomorphisms between quiver Hecke and diagrammatic Bott-Samelson endomorphism algebras
Amit Hazi
11:00am|Wolfensohn Hall and Remote Access

We construct an explicit isomorphism between certain truncations of quiver Hecke algebras and Elias-Williamson's diagrammatic endomorphism algebras of Bott-Samelson bimodules. As a corollary, we deduce that the decomposition numbers of these...

2-Verma modules
Gregoire Naisse and Pedro Vaz
2:00pm|Wolfensohn Hall and Remote Access

Categorification of integrable representations of quantum Kac--Moody algebras is a relatively well-developed subject nowadays, which has found several applications, in particular to low-dimensional topology. The story outside of the integrable world...

Stability and Periodicity in Modular Representation Theory
5:00pm|Wolfensohn Hall and Remote Access

I will review certain stabilization phenomena in the characteristic zero representation theory of general linear and symmetric groups as the rank tends to infinity. Then I will give a survey of some results and conjectures about analogs of these in...

Cohomology of line bundles on flag varieties in positive characteristic
6:30pm|Wolfensohn Hall and Remote Access

Let $G$ be a semi-simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field $k$ of positive characteristic and let $B$ be a Borel subgroup. The cohomology of line bundles on the flag variety $G/B$ induced by characters of $B$ are important objects...

Reverse Plane Partitions and Modules for the Preprojective Algebra
11:30am|Wolfensohn Hall and Remote Access

Reverse plane partitions - or RPPs for short - are order reversing maps of minuscule posets in types ADE. We report on joint work in progress with Elek, Kamnitzer, Libman, and Morton-Ferguson in which we give a type independent proof that RPPs form...

Unitriangularity and Decomposition Matrices of Unipotent Blocks
1:00pm|Wolfensohn Hall and Remote Access

For a finite group $G$ one has a process of modular reduction which takes a $KG$-module, over a field $K$ of characteristic zero, and produces a $kG$-module, over a field $k$ of positive characteristic. Starting with a simple $KG$-module its modular...

Generalized affine Grassmannian slices, truncated shifted Yangians, and Hamiltonian reduction
Joel Kamnitzer
2:30pm|Wolfensohn Hall and Remote Access

Given a representation of a reductive group, Braverman-Finkelberg-Nakajima defined a Poisson variety called the Coulomb branch, using a convolution algebra construction. This variety comes with a natural deformation quantization, called a Coulomb...

Macdonald polynomials and decomposition numbers for finite unitary groups
Olivier Dudas
2:00pm|Wolfensohn Hall and Remote Access

(work in progress with R. Rouquier) I will present a computational (yet conjectural) method to determine some decomposition matrices for finite groups of Lie type. These matrices encode how ordinary representations decompose when they are reduced to...
