Alex Youcis (University of Tokyo)
Geometric arc fundamental group (English)
[ Abstract ]
Unlike algebraic geometry, the correct notion for a ‘covering space’ of a rigid analytic variety is non-obvious to define. In particular, the class of finite etale covering spaces doesn’t encompass many real world examples of ‘covering space’-like maps (e.g. Tate’s uniformization of elliptic curves, or period mappings of Rapoport—Zink spaces). In de Jong’s seminal work on the topic he made great strides forward by studying a notion of covering space, suggested by work of Berkovich, which includes many previous ‘covering spaces’ which are not finite etale and is rich enough to support a theory of a fundamental group.

Unfortunately, de Jong’s notion of covering space lacks many of the natural properties one would expect from the notion of a ‘covering space’. In this talk we discuss recent work of Achinger, Lara, and myself which proposes a larger class of ‘covering spaces’ than those considered by de Jong which enjoys the geometric properties missing from de Jong’s picture. In addition, we mention how this larger category is related to work of Scholze on pro-etale local systems as well as work of Bhatt and Scholze on the pro-etale fundamental group of a scheme.

Global structure of steady-states for a cross-diffusion limit in the Shigesada-Kawasaki-Teramoto model (Japanese)
[ Abstract ]
In 1979, Shigesada, Kawasaki and Teramoto proposed a Lotka-Volterra competition model with cross-diffusion terms in order to realize the segregation phenomena of two competing species. This talk concerns the asymptotic behavior of steady-states to the Shigesada-Kawasaki-Teramoto model in the full cross-diffusion limit where both coefficients of cross-diffusion terms tend to infinity at the same rate. In the former half of this talk, we derive a uniform estimate of all steady-states independent of the cross-diffusion terms. In the latter half, we show the global structure of steady-states of a shadow system in the full cross-diffusion limit.

Yoshihiko Shinomiya (Shizuoka University)
Period matrices of some hyperelliptic Riemann surfaces (JAPANESE)
[ Abstract ]
In this talk, we give new examples of period matrices of hyperelliptic Riemann surfaces. For generic genus, there were few examples of period matrices. The period matrix of a Riemann surface depends only on the choice of symplectic basis of the first homology group. It is difficult to find a symplectic basis in general. We construct hyperelliptic Riemann surfaces of generic genus from some rectangles and find their symplectic bases. Moreover, we give their algebraic equations. The algebraic equations are of the form $w^2=z(z^2-1)(z^2-a_1^2)(z^2-a_2^2) \cdots (z^2-a_{g-1}^2)$ ($1 < a_1< a_2< \cdots < a_{g-1}$). From them, we can calculate period matrices of our Riemann surfaces. We also show that all algebraic curves of this types of equations are obtained by our construction.

Classification of type A analogues of minimal representations
(Japanese)
[ Abstract ]
If $\mathfrak{g}$ is a simple Lie algebra not of type A, the enveloping algebra $U(\mathfrak{g})$ has a unique completely prime primitive ideal whose associated variety equals the closure of the minimal nilpotent orbit. The ideal is called the Joseph Ideal. An irreducible admissible representation of a simple Lie group is called minimal if the annihilator of the underlying $(\mathfrak{g},\mathfrak{k})$-modules is given by the Joseph ideal. Minimal representations are known to have simple $\mathfrak{k}$-type decompositions (called pencil), and a simple Lie group has at most two minimal representations up to complex conjugate. In this talk, we consider the type A analogues for the above statements.

Bayesian Fixed-domain Asymptotics for Covariance Parameters in Gaussian Random Field Models
[ Abstract ]
Asia-Pacific Seminar in Probability and Statistics (APSPS)
https://sites.google.com/view/apsps/home

Gaussian random field models are commonly used for modeling spatial processes. In this work we focus on the Gaussian process with isotropic Matern covariance functions. Under fixed-domain asymptotics,it is well known that when the dimension of data is less than or equal to three, the microergodic parameter can be consistently estimated with asymptotic normality while the range (or length-scale) parameter cannot. Motivated by this frequentist result, we prove that under a Bayesian fixed-domain framework, the posterior distribution of the microergodic parameter converges in total variation norm to a normal distribution with shrinking variance, while the posterior of the range parameter does not necessarily converge. Built on this new theory, we further show that the Bayesian kriging predictor satisfies the posterior asymptotic efficiency in linear prediction. We illustrate these asymptotic results in numerical examples.

Nobuo Iida (The Univesity of Tokyo)
Seiberg-Witten Floer homotopy and contact structures (JAPANESE)
[ Abstract ]
Seiberg-Witten theory has been an efficient tool to study 4-dimensional symplectic and 3-dimensional contact geometry. In this talk, we introduce new homotopical invariants related to these structures using Seiberg-Witten theory and explain their properties and applications. These invariants have two main origins:
1. Kronheimer-Mrowka's invariant for 4-manifold with contact boundary, whose construction is based on Seiberg-Witten equation on 4-manifolds with conical end.
2. Bauer-Furuta and Manolescu's homotopical method called finite dimensional approximation in Seiberg-Witten theory.
This talk includes joint works with Masaki Taniguchi(RIKEN) and Anubhav Mukherjee(Georgia tech).

Twisted Alexander polynomials, chirality, and local deformations of hyperbolic 3-cone-manifolds (JAPANESE)
[ Abstract ]
We discuss a relationship between the chirality of knots and higher dimensional twisted Alexander polynomials associated with holonomy representations of hyperbolic $3$-cone-manifolds. In particular, we provide a new necessary condition for a knot, that appears in a hyperbolic $3$-cone-manifold of finite volume as a singular set, to be amphicheiral. Moreover, we can detect the chirality of hyperbolic twist knots, according to our criterion, using low-dimensional irreducible representations. (This is a joint work with Takayuki Morifuji.)

Bounded multiplicity in the branching problems of "small" infinite-dimensional representations (Japanese)
[ Abstract ]
I plan to explain a geometric criterion for the bounded multiplicity property of “small” infinite-dimensional
representations of real reductive Lie groups in branching problems.

Applying the criterion to symmetric pairs, we give a full description of the triples H ⊂ G ⊃ G' such that any irreducible admissible representations of G with H-distinguished vectors have the bounded multiplicity property when restricted to the subgroup G'.

The precise results are available in [Adv. Math. 2021, Section 7] and arXiv:2109.14424, and I plan to give some flavor.

Research Ethics in Computer Aided Mathematics (JAPANESE)
[ Abstract ]
Since the solution of the four colored problem, a computer aided method has been expanding its base in mathematical research based on quite rapid development of Information Technology. Since then, it has been asked what the proof is, which is fundamental in mathematical research ethics.

[ Abstract ]
In Japan, female students' rate is low in mathematics and physics. The American Educational Psychology group pointed out there are three factors. We extended the model and added gender inequality  social climate factors. We confirmed that the new factors influenced the male image of mathematics and physics in Japan and England. I would like to Introduce interdisciplinary research on science and technology society.

Ergodic risk-sensitive control: history, new results and open problems
[ Abstract ]
Asia-Pacific Seminar in Probability and Statistics (APSPS)
https://sites.google.com/view/apsps/home

Risk-sensitive control became popular because of the robustness it provides to the optimal control. Its connection to the theory of large deviation also made it a natural candidate of mathematical interest. In this talk, we shall give an overview of the history of risk-sensitive control problems and some of its applications. We shall then (informally) discuss the ways of tackling this problem and the main questions of interest. At the end, we shall see some important open problems.

Dependence, Sklar's copulas and discreteness
[ Abstract ]
Asia-Pacific Seminar in Probability and Statistics (APSPS)
https://sites.google.com/view/apsps/home

Copulas have now become ubiquitous statistical tools for describing, analysing and modelling dependence between random variables. Yet the classical copula approach, building on Sklar’s theorem, cannot be legitimised if the variables of interest are not continuous. Indeed in the presence of discreteness, copula models are (i) unidentifiable, and (ii) not margin-free, and this by construction. In spite of the serious inconsistencies that this creates, downplaying statements are widespread in the literature, where copula methods are devised and used in discrete settings. In this work we call to reconsidering this current practice. To reconcile copulas with discreteness, we argued that they should be apprehended from a more fundamental perspective. Inspired by century-old ideas of Yule, we propose a novel construction which allows all the pleasant properties of copulas for modelling dependence (in particular:‘margin-freeness’) to smoothly carry over to the discrete setting.

Lotka-Volterra competition-diffusion system: the critical case
[ Abstract ]
We consider the reaction-diffusion competition system u_t=u_{xx}+u(1-u-v), v_t=dv_{xx}+rv(1-v-u), which is the so-called critical case. The associated ODE system then admits infinitely many equilibria, which makes the analysis quite intricate. We first prove the non-existence of monotone traveling waves by applying the phase plane analysis. Next, we study the long time behavior of the solution of the Cauchy problem with a compactly supported initial datum. We not only reveal that the ''faster'' species excludes the ''slower'' species (with an identified ''spreading speed''), but also provide a sharp description of the profile of the solution, thus shedding light on a new ''bump phenomenon''.

Collapsing Ricci-flat metrics and a priori estimate for the Monge-Ampere equation
(Japanese)
[ Abstract ]
Yau proved the Calabi conjecture by using a priori estimate for the Monge-Ampere equation. Recently, for a Calabi-Yau manifold with a fiber space structure, the behavior of Ricci-flat metrics collapsing to a Kahler class of the base space was studied by Gross-Tosatti-Zhang, etc. The Gromov-Hausdorff convergence of K3 surfaces to spheres obtained by a joint work with Yuji Odaka (arXiv:1810.07685) is also based on those estimates for solutions to the Monge-Ampere equation. In this talk, I would like to discuss how an estimate of solutions to differential equations deduces the existence of canonical metrics and the Gromov-
Hausdorff convergence.
