Nonsmooth Nonconvex Optimization Problems (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
A general class of nonsmooth nonconvex optimization problems is discussed. A general existence theory of solutions, the Lagrange multiplier theory and sensitivity analysis of the optimal value function are developed. Concrete examples are presented to demonstrate the applicability of our approach.

Stable homotopy type for monopole Floer homology (ENGLISH)
Tirasan Khandhawit (Kavli IPMU)
Stable homotopy type for monopole Floer homology (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
In this talk, I will try to give an overview of the
construction of stable homotopy type for monopole Floer homology. The
construction associates a stable homotopy object to 3-manifolds, which
will recover the Floer groups by appropriate homology theory. The main
ingredients are finite dimensional approximation technique and Conley
index theory. In addition, I will demonstrate construction for certain
3-manifolds such as the 3-torus.

Inverse elastic wave scattering from rigid diffraction gratings (ENGLISH)
Guanghui Hu (WIAS, Germany)
Inverse elastic wave scattering from rigid diffraction gratings (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
In recent years, Schwarz reflection principles have been used to prove uniqueness in inverse scattering by bounded obstacles and unbounded periodic structures of polygonal or polyhedral type with only one or several incident plane waves.
Such a principle for the Navier equation is established by far only underthe third or fourth kind boundary conditions, and still remains unknown in the more practical case of the Dirichlet boundary condition.
In this talk we will discuss the uniqueness in inverse elastic scattering from rigid diffraction gratings of polygonal type, where the total displacement vanishes on the scattering surface. Mathematically, this can be modeled by the Dirichlet boundary value problem for the Navier equation in periodic structures. We prove that such diffraction gratings can be uniquely
determined from the near-field data corresponding to a finite number of incident elastic plane waves.
This is a joint work with J. Elschner and M. Yamamoto.

Heights of motives (ENGLISH)
Kazuya Kato (University of Chicago)
Heights of motives (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
The height of a rational number a/b (a, b integers which are coprime) is defined as max(|a|, |b|). A rational number with small (resp. big) height is a simple (resp. complicated) number. Though the notion height is so naive, height has played fundamental roles in number theory. There are important variants of this notion. In 1983, when Faltings proved Mordell conjecture, Faltings first proved Tate conjecture for abelian variaties by defining heights of abelian varieties, and then he deduced Mordell conjecture from the latter conjecture. I explain that his height of an abelian variety is generalized to the height of a motive. This generalization of height is related to open problems in number theory. If we can prove finiteness of the number of motives of bounded heights, we can prove important conjectures in number theory such as general Tate conjecture and Mordell-Weil type conjectures in many cases.

Inasa Nakamura (The University of Tokyo)
Satellites of an oriented surface link and their local moves (JAPANESE)
[ Abstract ]
For an oriented surface link $F$ in $\\mathbb{R}^4$,
we consider a satellite construction of a surface link, called a
2-dimensional braid over $F$, which is in the form of a covering over
$F$. We introduce the notion of an $m$-chart on a surface diagram
$p(F)\\subset \\mathbb{R}^3$ of $F$, which is a finite graph on $p(F)$
satisfying certain conditions and is an extended notion of an
$m$-chart on a 2-disk presenting a surface braid.
A 2-dimensional braid over $F$ is presented by an $m$-chart on $p(F)$.
It is known that two surface links are equivalent if and only if their
surface diagrams are related by a finite sequence of ambient isotopies
of $\\mathbb{R}^3$ and local moves called Roseman moves.
We show that Roseman moves for surface diagrams with $m$-charts can be
well-defined. Further, we give some applications.

Fabricio Macia (Universidad Politécnica de Madrid)
Dispersion and observability for completely integrable Schrödinger flows (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
I will present some results on weak dispersion and unique continuation (observability) for linear Schrödinger
equations that are obtained as the quantization of a completely integrable Hamiltonian system.
The model case corresponds to the linear Schrödinger equation (with a potential) on the flat torus.
Our results are obtained through a detailed analysis of semiclassical measures corresponding to
sequences of solutions, which is performed using a two-microlocal approach.
This is a joint work with Nalini Anantharaman and Clotilde Fermanian-Kammerer.

A characterization of the $L^{2}$-range of the
Poisson transform on symmetric spaces of noncompact type (JAPANESE)
[ Abstract ]
Characterizations of the joint eigenspaces of invariant
differential operators in terms of the Poisson transform have been one of the central problems in harmonic analysis on symmetric spaces.
From the point of view of spectral theory, Strichartz (J. Funct.
Anal.(1989)) formulated a conjecture concerning a certain image
characterization of the Poisson transform of the $L^{2}$-space on the boundary on symmetric spaces of noncompact type. In this talk, we employ techniques in scattering theory to present a positive answer to the Strichartz conjecture.

Jon Nimmo (Univ. of Glasgow)
The discrete Schrodinger equation for compact support potentials (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
We consider the exact form of the Jost solutions of the discrete Schrodinger equation for arbitrary potentials with compact support. Remarkably, these solutions may be written in terms of certain explicitly defined polynomials in the non-trivial values of the potential. These polynomials also arise in the work of Yamada (2000) in connection with a birational representation of the symmetric group.
Applications of this approach to the udKdV are also discussed.

Abel Klein (UC Irvine)
Quantitative unique continuation principle, local behavior of solutions, and bounds on the density of states for Schr\\"odinger operators (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
We establish bounds on the density of states measure for Schr\\"odinger operators. These are deterministic results that do not require the existence of the density of states measure, or, equivalently, of the integrated density of states. The results are stated in terms of a ``density of states outer-measure'' that always exists, and provides an upper bound for the density of states measure when it exists. We prove log-H\\"older continuity for this density of states outer-measure in one, two, and three dimensions for Schr\\"odinger operators, and in any dimension for discrete Schr\\"odinger operators. Our proofs use a quantitative unique continuation principle and the local behavior of approximate solutions of the stationary Schr\\"odinger equation.

[ Abstract ]
I will talk about birational geometry of Q-Fano threefolds. A Mori
fiber space birational to a given Q-Fano threefold is called a birational Mori fiber structure of the threefold. The existence of Q-Fano threefolds with a unique birational Mori fiber structure (resp. with two birational Mori fiber structures) is known. In this talk I will give an example of Q-Fano threefolds with three birational Mori fiber structures and also discuss about the behavior of birational Mori fiber structures in a family.

[ Abstract ]
About 50 years ago Gelfand suggested a concepion of horospherical transform which, he hoped, must be an universal principle unifying non commutative harmonic analysis. I want to make several historic remarks (especialy, since this year is the centenial anniversary of Gelfand). I want to discuss the evolution of this fundamental conception for 50 years and how Gelfand’s dreams are looked today. I will discuss an elementary case of hyperboloids of any signature where there were not too much progress after old initial result of Gelfand-Graev.

Sumio Yamada (Gakushuin University)
Variational characterizations of exact solutions of the Einstein equation (JAPANESE)
[ Abstract ]
There are a set of well-known exact solutions to the Einstein equation. The most important one is the Schwarzschild metric, and it models a Ricci-flat space-time, which is asymptotically flat. In addition, there are the Reissner-Nordstrom metric and the Majumdar-Papapetrou metric, which satisfy the Einstein-Maxwell equation, instead of the vacuum Einstein equation. In a jointwork with Marcus Khuri and Gilbert Weinstein, it is shown that those metrics are characterized as the equality
cases of a set of so-called Penrose-type inequalities. The method of proof is a
conformal deformation of Riemannian metrics defined on the space-like slice of the space-time.

Hyperbolic four-manifolds with one cusp (cancelled) (JAPANESE)
[ Abstract ]
(joint work with A. Kolpakov)
We introduce a simple algorithm which transforms every
four-dimensional cubulation into a cusped finite-volume hyperbolic
four-manifold. Combinatorially distinct cubulations give rise to
topologically distinct manifolds. Using this algorithm we construct
the first examples of finite-volume hyperbolic four-manifolds with one
cusp. More generally, we show that the number of k-cusped hyperbolic
four-manifolds with volume smaller than V grows like C^{V log V} for
any fixed k. As a corollary, we deduce that the 3-torus bounds
geometrically a hyperbolic manifold.
