Richard Hain (Duke University)
Mapping class group actions on the homology of configuration spaces (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
The action of the mapping class group of a surface S on the homology of the space F_n(S) of ordered configurations of n points in S is well understood when S has genus 0, but is not very well understood when S has positive genus. In this talk I will report on joint work with Clément Dupont (Montpellier) in the case where S is a surface of finite type of genus at least 2. We give a strong lower bound on the size of the Zariski closure of the image of the Torelli and mapping class groups in the automorphism group of the degree n cohomology of F_n(S). Our main tools are Hodge theory and the Goldman Lie algebra of the surface, which is the free abelian group generated by the conjugacy classes in the fundamental group of S.

Serban Matei Mihalache (The University of Tokyo)
Constructing solution of Polygon and Simplex equation (JAPANESE)
[ Abstract ]
The Polygon equation, formulated by Dimakis and Müller-Hoissen, can be interpreted as an algebraic equation corresponding to the Pachner (⌊(n+1)/2⌋+1, ⌈(n+1)/2⌉)-move on triangulations of n-dimensional PL manifolds, and is expected that this can be used to construct invariants of PL manifolds. In this talk, we show that solutions of higher-dimensional Polygon equations can be constructed from collections of "commutative" solutions of lower-dimensional Polygon equations, and we present explicit examples of such solutions. Furthermore, when a pair of solutions of the Polygon equation satisfies a condition called the mixed relation, we show that it gives rise to a solution of the Simplex equation, which is a higher-dimensional analogue of the Yang–Baxter equation. This talk is based on joint work with Tomoro Mochida.

確率ヴォルテラ方程式のマルコフリフトの弱エルゴード性
[ Abstract ]
確率ヴォルテラ方程式の解は一般に非マルコフかつ非セミマルチンゲールであるような(有限次元)確率過程であるが、無限次元空間への持ち上げを考えることで、あるヒルベルト空間上のマルコフ過程(マルコフリフト)が得られる。
また、元の確率ヴォルテラ方程式の解は、このマルコフリフトのある種の射影として復元できる。
本研究の目的は、マルコフリフトの長時間漸近挙動を調べ、元の確率ヴォルテラ方程式の解に関する極限定理を得ることである。
そのうえで解決すべき難点は、マルコフリフトが満たす確率発展方程式が退化型であること、すなわち状態空間は無限次元であるが、ノイズを駆動するブラウン運動は有限次元であるという点である。
前回の東京確率論セミナー(2023年6月19日)では、マルコフリフトの漸近的対数ハルナック不等式、特に不変確率測度の一意性に関する結果を報告した。

On the limiting distribution of partial sums of random multiplicative functions
[ Abstract ]
Consider a random walk associated with a Steinhaus multiplicative function (i.e. the increments are completely multiplicative and uniformly distributed on the complex unit circle): what can we say about its asymptotic behaviour? In his seminal work, Harper resolved a conjecture of Helson by showing that low fractional moments exhibit better-than-square-root cancellation, but the asymptotic distribution remained a mystery and was left as an open problem. In this talk, I will first explain some history and the number-theoretic motivations behind this model, and then present a central limit theorem that features a nonstandard renormalisation as well as a random variance described by the Riemann Zeta function on the critical line. I will highlight the probabilistic aspects of our proof, and in particular discuss a universality result for critical non-Gaussian multiplicative chaos. This is based on joint work with Ofir Gorodetsky.

de Finetti Random Walks on a Hypercube and Gaussian Fields
[ Abstract ]
This talk will discuss a random walk on the infinite hypercube,
Xt+1 = Xt + Zt mod 2.
The increments (Zt) are i.i.d. with entries that form an infinite exchange- able {0,1} sequence, a de Finetti sequence. There is geometric killing in the random walk. A Gaussian free field (gx)x∈{0,1}∞ is associated with the random walk by taking the covariance function to be proportional to the Green function of the random walk. The Green function and a strong rep- resentation for (gx) are characterized by a negative binomial point process which involves the de Finetti measure of the increments of the random walk.

Diagrammatic criteria for strong irreducibility of Heegaard splittings and finiteness of Goeritz groups (JAPANESE)
[ Abstract ]
Casson-Gordon gave a criterion for Heegaard splittings of 3-manifolds to be strongly irreducible. By strengthening it, Lustig-Moriah gave a criterion for Goeritz groups of Heegaard splittings to be finite. Their criteria are based on Heegaard diagrams formed by maximal disk systems of the handlebodies. We generalize them for arbitrary disk systems, including minimal ones. As an application, we give Heegaard splittings with non-minimal genera and finite Goeritz groups. This is based on joint work with Yuya Koda.

Descent and pro-excision
Ryomei Iwasa (University of Copenhagen)
Descent and pro-excision
[ Abstract ]
The theme of this talk is descent and excision of cohomology theories of schemes. We will start with a discussion of the canonical topology on spectral schemes. Unlike on classical schemes, this topology includes many other types of covers, such as h-covers. Then I will explain that THH and TC satisfy descent with respect to the canonical topology, which generalizes the flat descent by Bhatt—Morrow—Scholze. This in turn implies the cdh descent of K-theory on spectral schemes, despite its failure on classical schemes. Furthermore, this implies the cdh pro-excision of K-theory on spectral schemes, which generalizes the derived case by Kelly—Saito—Tamme (the original noetherian case is due to Kerz—Strunk—Tamme). Our proof of the cdh pro-excision is quite different from the previous ones and is more algebraic in nature. The results presented here are based on discussions with Antieau, Burklund, and Krause.

Miguel Angel Barja (UPC-Barcelona)
Asymptotic and continuous constructions in the geography of fibred varieties
[ Abstract ]
Given a fibred variety $X$ onto a smooth variety $T$ it is possible to consider different types of inequalities between birational invariants associated to a line bundle $L$, such as Noether, Slope or Severi inequalities. Most of these inequalities are closely related through asymptotic constructions and/or continuous functions that suggest the use of some new invariants. We will survey different constructions both in characteristic 0 and positive characteristic, and will focus in the case of varieties of maximal Albanese dimension, fibred over curves. If time permits, we will also give some ideas on fibrations over surfaces.

Normal stable degeneration of Noether-Horikawa surfaces: Deformation Part
Masafumi Hattori (University of Nottingham)
Normal stable degeneration of Noether-Horikawa surfaces: Deformation Part
[ Abstract ]
Koll’ar and Shepherd-Barron constructed a general theory for a canonical geometric compactification of moduli of smooth surfaces with ample canonical class by adding degenerations with only semi log canonical singularities. Their moduli is now called the KSBA moduli and degenerations are called stable degenerations. It has been a long standing question to classify all stable degenerations for smooth canonically polarized surfaces. In this talk, we focus on Q-Gorenstein deformation theory on Horikawa surfaces, which are minimal surfaces of general type in the case where the Noether inequality $K^2\geq 2p_g-4$ is an equality. This talk is based on the joint work (arXiv:2507:17633) with Hiroto Akaike, Makoto Enokizono, and Yuki Koto.

Tommaso Rossi (Scuola Internazionale Superiore di Studi Avanzati)
On the rectifiability of metric measure spaces with lower Ricci curvature bounds (英語)
[ Abstract ]
Given a metric measure space (X,d,m), the curvature-dimension condition CD(K,N), and the measure contraction property MCP(K,N), are synthetic notions of having Ricci curvature bounded below by K (and dimension bounded above by N). We prove some rectifiability results for CD(K,N) and MCP(K,N) metric measure spaces (X,d,m) with pointwise Ahlfors regular reference measure m and with m-almost everywhere unique metric tangents. Our strategy is based on the failure of the CD condition in sub-Finsler Carnot groups, on a new result on the failure of the non-collapsed MCP on sub-Finsler Carnot groups, and on a recent breakthrough by D. Bate. This is a joint work with M. Magnabosco and A. Mondino.

On a relationship between quandle homology and relative group homology, from the view point of Seifert surfaces (JAPANESE)
[ Abstract ]
Quandles and their homology are known to have good chemistry with knot theory. Associated with a triple of a group G, its automorphism, and its subgroup H satisfying a certain condition, we have a quandle. In this talk, we see that we have a chain map from the quandle chain complex of the quandle to the (Adamson/Hochschild) relative group chain complex of (G, H). We also see that this chain map has good chemistry with a triangulation of Seifert surface of a knot.

Gradient higher integrability of parabolic double-phase equations (English)
[ Abstract ]
Elliptic double-phase problems have been studied extensively in the last decade since a series of results by Mingione and others. Recently several regularity results have been obtained also for parabolic double-phase equations, yet many questions remain unsolved. In this talk, we focus on gradient higher integrability, showing that solutions to parabolic double-phase equations belong to a slightly higher Sobolev class than assumed a priori. The talk is based on joint work with Wontae Kim, Juha Kinnunen and Kristian Moring.

Global well-posedness for 3D quadratic nonlinear Schrödinger equations (Japanese)
[ Abstract ]
In this talk, we consider the Cauchy problem of the 3D nonlinear Schrödinger equations. It is known that if the nonlinearity is homogeneous of degree $p >2$, the general theory would provide the small data global existence of 3D NLS. In the quadratic case, which can be seen as a threshold of the small data global existence, the structure of nonlinearity plays a role and more sophisticated analysis is required. The aim in this talk is to show the global well-posedness in the scaling critical space with an additional angular regularity. The proof is based on the Fourier restriction norm method combined with several linear and bilinear estimates for the linear solutions.

[ Abstract ]
This talk aims to introduce the context of my primary research topic, namely $p$-modular representations of $p$-adic groups, as well as a current state of the art in the field, including some related questions I am currently exploring. After motivating the study of classical and modular Langlands correspondences for $p$-adic groups, I will explain why the $p$-modular setting (i.e. when representations of $p$-adic groups have coefficients in a field of positive characteristic equal to $p$) differs significantly from other settings (namely the complex and $\ell$-modular ones, with $\ell$ a prime distinct from $p$), then I will present the main results known so far about $p$-modular irreducible smooth representations of $p$-adic groups, with a particular focus on the special linear group $\mathrm{SL}_{2}$.

Hideyuki Ishi (Osaka Metropolitan Univ.)
A CR-Laplacian type operator for the Silov boundary of a homogeneous Siegel domain (Japanese)
[ Abstract ]
Let $\Sigma$ be the Silov boundary of a homogeneous Siegel domain $D$ on which a Lie group $G$ acts transitively as affine transformations. The CR-structure on $\Sigma$ naturally induced from the ambient complex vector space is non-trivial if and only if $D$ is of non-tube type. In this case, $\Sigma$ is naturally identified with a two-step nilpotent Lie subgroup $N$ of $G$, called a generalized Heisenberg Lie group. Since the CR-structure is invariant under the action of $G$, the CR-cohomology space over $\Sigma$ can be regarded as a $G$-module. We consider unitarization of this presentation of $G$. The kernel of the CR-Laplacian does not give the solution because the natural Riemannian metric on $\Sigma$ is not $G$-invariant, so that the $G$-action does not preserve the space of CR-harmonic forms. Nevertheless, Nomura defined a unitary $G$-action on the space indirectly when $G$ is split solvable. In this talk, we introduce a space of CR-cochains with $G$-invariant inner product defined via the Fourier transform. Then the associated CR-operator is no longer a differential operator, while the kernel of the operator gives a unitarization of the representation of $G$ over the cohomology space.

Fredholm Integral Equations and Eigenstructure: Genealogical Expansions via Non–Hilbert–Schmidt Solutions
[ Abstract ]
Fredholm integral equations play a central role in describing the long-term behavior of structured population models. In this talk, I present a determinant-free approach that constructs eigenfunctions through genealogical expansions, valid even beyond the Hilbert–Schmidt setting. The expansion is closely related to taboo probabilities in Markov chains, allowing eigenfunctions to be interpreted as cumulative ancestral contributions. As an application, I discuss age-structured branching processes and show how quantities such as expected generation counts and reproduction numbers naturally arise from the eigenvalue problem. This perspective highlights how eigenstructure encodes genealogical memory and opens connections between population dynamics, probability theory, and evolutionary processes.

Finiteness and tameness of Jacobian algebras (Japanese)
[ Abstract ]
本講演では、有限次元ヤコビ代数をその表現型の観点から研究し、$E$不変量によって定義される$E$有限性および$E$-tame性と、$g$有限性、$\tau$傾有限性、表現有限性などの他の有限性・tame性の概念との対応について述べる。
まず、これらの性質がクイバーとポテンシャルの変異の下で不変であることを示す。その結果として、有限次元ヤコビ代数$\mathcal{J}(Q,W)$が$E$有限であることは、$g$有限、$\tau$傾有限、表現有限であることと同値であり、この場合には $Q$がDynkin型であることが分かる。この結果は、Demonetの「$E$有限なら$g$有限である」という予想を含む形で成立している。
また、$E$-tame性に関しては、例外的な3つの型を除いて、$g$-tame性および表現tame性と対応することが分かる。本講演は、Mohamad Haerizadeh氏との共同研究に基づくものである。

[ Abstract ]
The speaker has been engaged in artificial intelligence and machine learning research at the RIKEN Center for Advanced Intelligence Project for about ten years, collaborating with researchers from diverse fields. From 2020 to 2024, through serving as a member and later chair of the Gender Equality Committee of the Mathematical Society of Japan, the speaker also became more deeply aware of broader social issues in academia.
Creating inclusive educational and research environments where members from diverse backgrounds can thrive is essential for fostering a vibrant research community. This lecture, together with a panel discussion, aims to provide an opportunity to reflect on current challenges, explore the responsibilities of individuals and institutions, and discuss possible directions toward building better environments.

On K3 surfaces with non-elementary hyperbolic automorphism group (JAPANESE)
[ Abstract ]
This talk is based on my joint work with Professor Koji Fujiwara (Kyoto University) and Professor Xun Yu (Tianjin University).
Main result of this talk is the finiteness of the Néron-Severi lattices of complex projective K3 surfaces whose automorphism groups are non-elementary hyperbolic, under the assumption that the Picard number greater than or equal to 6 (which is optimal to ensure the finiteness). In this talk, after recalling basic facts and some special nice properties of K3 surfaces, the notion of hyperbolicity of group due to Gromov, and their importance and interest (in our view), I would like to explain first why the non-elementary hyperbolicity of K3 surface automorphism group is the problem of the Néron-Severi lattices and then how one can deduce the above-mentioned finiteness, via a recent important observation by Professors Kikuta and Takatsu (independently) on geometrically finiteness, with a new algebro-geometric study of genus one fibrations on K3 surfaces by us.

Quantitative stability of Gel'fand's inverse problem (英語)
[ Abstract ]
Inverse problems study the determination of the global structure of a space or coefficients of a system from local measurements of solutions to the system. The problems are originally motivated from imaging sciences, where the goal is to deduce the structure of the inaccessible interior of a body from measurements at the exterior. A fundamental inverse problem, Gel'fand's inverse problem, asks to determine the geometry of a Riemannian manifold from local measurements of the heat kernel. In this talk, I will explain how the unique solvability of the classical Gel'fand's inverse problem can be established on manifolds via Tataru's optimal unique continuation theorem for the wave operator. Next, I will discuss our recent works on the uniqueness and stability of the inverse problem for the Gromov-Hausdorff limits of Riemannian manifolds with bounded sectional curvature. This talk is based on joint works with Y. Kurylev, M. Lassas, and T. Yamaguchi.
