K-stability of pointless Fano 3-folds (English)
In this talk we will show how to prove that all pointless smooth Fano 3-folds defined over a subfield of the field of complex numbers are Kahler-Einstein unless they belong to 8 exceptional deformation families. This is a joint work in progress with Hamid Abban (Nottingham) and Frederic Mangolte (Marseille).

The trapezoidal conjecture for the links of braid index 3 (JAPANESE)
The trapezoidal conjecture is a classical famous conjecture posed by Fox, which states that the coefficient sequence of the Alexander polynomial of any alternating link is trapezoidal. In this talk, we show this conjecture for any alternating links of braid index 3. Although the result holds for any choice of the orientation, we shall mainly discuss the case of the closures of alternating 3-braids with parallel orientations.

Introduction to large cardinals (JAPANESE)
Set theory is a branch of mathematics which studies infinite sets, and various infinite cardinals are considered in set theory. Among them, large cardinals are uncountable cardinals which have some transcendental properties to smaller cardinals. So far, many large cardinals are formulated by set theorists. They are so large that their existences are not provable in the standard axiom system ZFC of set theory. The axioms asserting their existences are called large cardinal axioms. One of interesting points of large cardinals is that, while large cardinals are much larger than the cardinality of the set of real numbers, we can prove various facts on sets of real numbers using large cardinal axioms. In this talk, I will explain outline of large cardinal theory. I will also talk about large cardinal properties of small uncountable cardinals, which I am interested in.

Energy convergence of the Allen-Cahn equation for mean convex mean curvature flow (English)
In this talk, I'll present a work in progress in which I positively answer a question of Ilmanen (JDG 1993) on the strong convergence of the Allen-Cahn equation to mean curvature flow when starting from well-prepared initial data around a mean convex surface. As a corollary, the conditional convergence result with Simon (CPAM 2018) becomes unconditional in the mean convex case.

Knot invariants and their Harer-Zagier transform (ENGLISH)
The Harer-Zagier (HZ) transform is a discrete Laplace transform that can be applied to knot polynomials, mapping them into a rational function of two variables $\lambda$ and $q$. The HZ transform of the HOMFLY-PT polynomial has a simple form, as it can be written as a sum of factorised terms. For some special families of knots, it can be fully factorised and it is completely determined by a set of exponents. There is an interesting relation between such exponents and Khovanov homology. Moreover, we conjecture that there is an 1-1 correspondence with such factorisability and a relation between the HOMFLY-PT and Kauffman polynomials. Furthermore, we suggest that by fixing the variable $\lambda= q^n$ for some "magical" exponent $n$, the HZ transform of any knot can obtain a factorised form in terms of cyclotomic polynomials. Finally, the zeros of the HZ transform show an interesting behaviour, which shall be discussed.

測度付き抵抗距離空間上の確率過程の局所時間のスケール極限について (日本語)
抵抗距離空間は電気回路の一般化であり,ディリクレ形式の理論により測度付き抵抗距離空間には確率過程が定まる.Croydon-Hambly-Kumagai (2017)は収束する抵抗距離空間が一様体積倍化条件を満たすならば対応する確率過程とその局所時間が収束することを示した.その後Croydon (2018)はより弱い条件である非爆発条件の下で確率過程の収束を示したが,局所時間の収束については未解決のままであった.本講演では非爆発条件及び距離エントロピーに関する適当な条件の下で確率過程とその局所時間の収束が従うこと,そしてこの結果の応用例について解説する.また同様の結果は離散時間マルコフ連鎖とその局所時間に対しても成立し,時間が許せばこの結果についても紹介する.

Boundedness of weak Fano threefolds with fixed Gorenstein index in positive characteristic
In this talk, we give a partial affirmative answer to the BAB conjecture for 3-folds in characteristic p>5. Specifically, we prove that a set of weak Fano 3-folds over an uncountable algebraically closed field is bounded, if each element X satisfies certain conditions regarding the Gorenstein index, a complement and Kodaira type vanishing. In the course of the proof, we also study a uniform lower bound for Seshadri constants of nef and big invertible sheaves on projective 3-folds.

Homogenization of nonlocal Hamilton Jacobi equations (English)
I will present the framework of periodic homogenisation of nonlocal Hamilton-Jacobi equations, associated with Levy-Itô integro-differential operators. A typical equation is the fractional diffusion coupled with a transport term, where the diffusion is only weakly elliptical. Homogenization is established in two steps: (i) the resolution of a cellular problem - where Lipshitz regularity of the corrector plays a key role and (ii) the convergence of the oscillating solutions towards an averaged profile - where comparison principles are involved. I shall discuss recent results on the regularity of solutions and comparison principles for nonlocal equations, and the difficulties we face when compared with local PDEs. The talked is based on recent developments obtained in collaboration with D. Ghilli, O.Ley, E. Topp, T. Minh Le.

On the (φ,Γ)-modules corresponding to crystalline representations and semi-stable representations
From the 1980s to the 1990s, J.-M. Fontaine constructed an equivalence of categories between the category of (φ, Γ)-modules and the category of p-adic Galois representations. After recalling it, I will present my result on the (φ, Γ)-modules corresponding to crystalline representations and semi-stable representations. As for the crystalline case, this can be seen, in a sense, as a generalization of Wach module in the ramified case. If time permits, I will explain my ongoing research on the (φ, Γ)-modules corresponding to de Rham representations.

γ-supports and sheaves (JAPANESE)
The space of smooth compact exact Lagrangians of a cotangent bundle carries the spectral metric γ, and we consider its completion. With an element of the completion, Viterbo associated a closed subset called γ-support. In this talk, I will explain how we can use sheaf-theoretic methods to explore the completion and γ-supports. I will show that we can associate a sheaf with an element of the completion, and its (reduced) microsupport is equal to the γ-support through the correspondence. With this equality, I will also show several properties of γ-supports. This is joint work with Tomohiro Asano (RIMS), Stéphane Guillermou (Nantes Université), Vincent Humilière (Sorbonne Université), and Claude Viterbo (Université Paris-Saclay).

Kähler metrics in the Siegel domain (Japanese)
The Siegel domain is endowed with an intrinsic Kähler structure, making it an exemplary model for the complex hyperbolic plane. Its boundary, characterized as the one-point compactification of the Heisenberg group, plays an important role in studying the geometry of the Siegel domain. In this talk, using the CR structure of the Heisenberg group we introduce a variety of Kähler structures within the Siegel domain. We conclude by demonstrating that all these metrics are PCR-Kähler equivalent, that is, essentially the same when confined to the CR structure. This talk is based on a joint work with Ioannis Platis and Joonhyung Kim.

2曲線間に制限されたパス空間上でのWiener測度に対する高階の部分積分公式 (日本語)
2曲線間に制限されたパス空間上でのWiener測度に対する1階微分の部分積分公式は既に知られている。本講演では、この結果を高階微分の部分積分公式に拡張する。高階微分の部分積分公式においては、従来の1階微分の場合にはない非自明な境界項が追加で現れ、さらに、その証明において、Brownian excursionやBrownian house-movingと呼ばれる確率過程のランダムウォーク近似による構成方法が新たに必要となる。また、証明の中で、1次および2次の無限小確率の概念を導入する。この概念を導入することで、部分積分公式の各項に現れる数式に対して確率論的な解釈が可能となり、部分積分公式を整理する上で有益な概念であることを説明する。なお、本講演内容は、東京都立大学の石谷謙介氏との共同研究(arXiv:2405.05595)に基づく。

非分離Kummer曲面 (日本語)
Kummer曲面Km(A)とは,+-1倍写像によるアーベル曲面Aの商の最小特異点解消として得られる曲面である.Aが標数≠2の場合(resp. 標数2で,超特異ではない場合)は,Km(A)はK3曲面であり,例外曲線は互いに交わらない(resp. 所定の交わり方をする)16本の有理曲線である.Aが標数2で超特異の場合はKm(A)はK3曲面にならない.また,Km(A)が標数2の超特異K3曲面になることはない.
本講演では,標数2の超特異K3曲面とその上の16本の有理曲線で所定の交わり方をするものに対し,非分離2重被覆Aを構成することができること,Aは非特異部分に群構造が入り「アーベル曲面もどき」になることを示す.Aの分類のために,RDP K3曲面のRDPの補集合から最小特異点解消への B_n \Omega^1(Cartier作用素を何回か適用すると消える1次微分形式の層)の延長に関する結果を用いるので,これにも言及したい.

Equidimensionality of affine Deligne-Lusztig varieties in mixed characteristic (日本語)
Shimura varieties are of central interest in arithmetic geometry and affine Deligne-Lusztig varieties are closely related to their special fibers. These varieties are group-theoretical objects and can be defined even for non-miniscule local Shimura data. In this talk, I will explain the proof of the equidimensionality of affine Deligne-Lusztig varieties in mixed characteristic.
The main ingredient is a local foliation of affine Deligne-Lusztig varieties in mixed characteristic. In equal characteristic, this local structure was previously introduced by Hartl and Viehmann.

The Energy of Heavy Atoms: Density Functionals (English)
Since computing the energy of a system with $N$ particles requires solving a $4^N$ dimensional system of (pseudo-)differential equations in $3N$ independent variables, an analytic solution is practically impossible. Therefore density functionals, i.e., functionals that depend on the particle density (3 variables) only and yield the energy upon minimization, are of great interest.
This concept has been applied successfully in non-relativistic quantum mechanics. However, in relativistic quantum mechanics even the simple analogue of the Thomas-Fermi functional is not bounded from below for Coulomb potential. This problem was addressed eventually by Engel and Dreizler who derived a functional from QED. I will review some known mathematical properties of this functional and show that it yields basic features of physics, such as asymptotic correct energy, stability of matter, and boundedness of the excess charge.

Well-posedness for Semilinear Heat Equations in Orlicz Spaces (English)
We consider the local well-posedness of semilinear heat equations in Orlicz spaces, the latter prescribed via a Young function $\Phi$. Many existence-uniqueness results exist in the literature for power-like or exponential-like nonlinearities $f$, where the natural setting is an Orlicz space of corresponding type; i.e. if $f$ is power-like then $\Phi$ is power-like (Lebesgue space), if $f$ is exponential-like then $\Phi$ is exponential-like. However, the general problem of prescribing a suitable $\Phi$ for a given, otherwise arbitrary $f$ is open. Our goal is to provide a suitable framework to resolve this problem and I will present some recent results in this direction. The key is a new (to the best of our knowledge) smoothing estimate for the heat semigroup between two arbitrary Orlicz spaces. Existence then follows familiar lines via monotonicity or contraction mapping arguments. Global solutions are also presented under additional assumptions. This work is part of a collaborative project with Prof Kazuhiro Ishige, Dr Yohei Fujishima and Dr Kotaro Hisa.

Exotic 4-manifolds with signature zero (JAPANESE)
We will talk about our novel examples of symplectic 4-manifolds, which are homeomorphic but not diffeomorphic to the standard simply-connected closed 4-manifolds with signature zero. In particular, they provide such examples with the smallest Euler characteristics known to date. Our method employs the time-honored approach of reverse-engineering, while the key new ingredients are the model manifolds that we build from scratch as Lefschetz fibrations. Notably, our method greatly simplifies pi_1 calculations, typically the most intricate aspect in existing literature.
This is joint work with Inanc Baykur (University of Massachusetts Amherst).
