Analysis of the Simplified Ericksen-Leslie Model for Liquid Crystals (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
Consider the Ericksen-Leslie model for the flow of liquid crystals in a bounded domain $\\Omega \\subset \\R^n$. In this talk we discuss various simplifications of the general model and describe a dynamic theory for the simplified equations by analyzing it as a quasilinear system. In particular, we show the existence of a unique, global, strong solutions to this system provided the initial data are close to an equilibrium or the solution is eventually bounded in the norm of the underlying state space. In this case the solution converges exponentially to an equilibrium. Moreover, the solution is shown to be real analytic, jointly in time and space.
We further analyze a non-isothermal extension of this model safisfying the first and second law of thermodynamics and show that results of the above type hold as well in this setting.
This is joint work with M. Nesensohn, J. Prüss and K. Schade.

Equivariant degenerations of spherical modules (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
Given a reductive algebraic group G and an invariant
Hilbert function h, Alexeev and Brion have defined
a moduli scheme M which parametrizes affine G-schemes X
with the property that the coordinate ring of X decomposes,
as G-module, according to the function h. The talk will
be about joint work with Bart Van Steirteghem (New York)
which studies the moduli scheme M under some additional
assumptions.

Birgit Speh (Cornell University)
Representations of reductive groups and L-functions (I) (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
This is an introduction to the theory of L-functions and in particular of the local L-factors of representations in real and complex groups. Some familiarity with infinite dimensional representations would be very helpful, but I will not assume any knowledge of number theory. We will start in the first lecture by considering L-functions for Groessen characters and classical automorphic forms, in other words for automorphic representations of G(1) and GL(2). This will motivate the definition of the local L-factors of representations of GL(1,R) and GL(2,R). Then we will discuss Rankin convolutions and define the L-factors for infinite dimensional tempered representations of GL(n,R).

Changzheng Li (IPMU)
Primitive forms via polyvector fields (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
The theory of primitive forms was introduced by Kyoji Saito in early 1980s, which was first known in singularity theory and has attracted much attention in mirror symmetry recently. In this talk, we will introduce a differential geometric approach to primitive forms, using compactly supported polyvector fields. We will first introduce the notion of primitive forms, making it acceptable to general audience. We will use the example of the mirror Laudau-Ginzberg model of P^1 to illustrate such approach. This is my joint work with Si Li and Kyoji Saito.

Smooth 3-manifolds in the 4-sphere (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
Everyone who has studied topology knows the compact 2-manifolds that embed in the 3-sphere. One dimension up, the problem of which smooth 3-manifolds embed in the 4-sphere turns out to be much more involved with a handful of partial answers. I will describe what is known at the present moment.

A Trace Formula for Long-Range Perturbations of the Landau Hamiltonian
(Joint work with Georgi Raikov) (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
The Landau Hamiltonian describes the dynamics of a two-dimensional
charged particle subject to a constant magnetic field. Its spectrum
consists in eigenvalues of infinite multiplicity given by $B(2q+1)$, $q\\in Z_+$. We
consider perturbations of this operator by including a continuous
electric potential that decays slowly at infinity (as $|x|^{-\\rho}$, $0<\\rho<1$).
The spectrum of the perturbed operator consists of eigenvalue clusters
which accumulate to the Landau levels. We provide estimates for the
rate at which the clusters shrink as we move up the energy levels.
Further, we obtain an explicit description of the asymptotic density
of eigenvalues for asymptotically homogeneous long-range potentials in
terms of a mean-value transform of the associated homogeneous
function.

Richard Eager (Kavli IPMU)
Elliptic genera and two dimensional gauge theories (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
The elliptic genus is an important invariant of two dimensional conformal field theories that generalizes the Witten index. In this talk, I will first review the geometric meaning of the elliptic genus and Witten's GLSM construction. Then I will explain how the elliptic genus can be computed directly from a two dimensional gauge theory using localization. The central example of this talk will be the quintic threefold. The GLSM description of the quintic threefold has both a large-volume sigma model description and a Landau-Ginzburg description. I will explain how the GLSM calculation of the index reproduces the old results in these two phases. Time permitting, further applications and generalizations will be discussed.

Aggregation mechanism of biological species : from microscopic
and macroscopic viewpoints (JAPANESE)
[ Abstract ]
There are a lot of organisms which form aggregation in nature. In order to describe the dynamics of such biological species, a particle model is often proposed, which is based on the random walk from the microscopic point of view. On the other hand, when we take population densities of biological species into account, the dynamics is expressed as partial differential equations. We see that different models are proposed according to the viewpoints which we are focusing on. In this talk, we take aggregation phenomena of biological species as an example, and introduce a relation between a microscopic particle model and a macroscopic partial differential equation model.

Two-dimensional Calderon problems for Navier-Stokes equations and Lame system (ENGLISH)

低ランク行列推定におけるベイズ推定法の性質 (JAPANESE)
[ Abstract ]
真のパラメータが低ランク行列の構造を持つような低ランク行列推定問題を考える. 低ランク行列推定問題の例としては,低ランク行列の一部が見えている時にその残りを 推定する行列補完の問題などがある.応用としてはユーザへの推薦システムなどがある. これまでの理論解析は主にスパース正則化を用いた経験誤差最小化を対象としてきたが, 本発表ではベイズ法を考え,その統計的性質を調べる.ベイズ法においては, 正則化付き経験誤差最小化による方法とは異なるやや緩い仮定のもと, ほぼ最適な収束レートが導けることを示す.また,テンソル型データ (多次元アレイデータ)へも同様の議論が拡張可能であることも述べる.

A general formula for the discriminant of polynomials over $¥mathbb{F}_2$ determining the parity of the number of prime factors
(JAPANESE)
[ Abstract ]
In order to find irreducible polynomials over $\\mathbb{F}_2$ efficiently, the method using Swan's theorem is known. Swan's theorem determines the parity of the numberof irreducible factors of a polynomial $f$ over $\\mathbb{F}_2$ with no repeated root, by using the discriminant ${\\rm D}(\\tilde{f})\\pmod 8$, where $\\tilde{f}$ is a monic polynomial over $\\mathbb{Z}_2$ such that $\\tilde{f}=f\\pmod 2$. In the lecture, we will give the formula for the discriminant ${\\rm D}(\\tilde{f}) \\pmod 8$ for a polynomial $f$ over $\\mathbb{F}_2$ with no repeated root. By applying this formula to various types of polynomials, we shall get the parity of the number of irreducible factors of them.
