TAKAGI, Shunsuke (Graduate School of Mathematical Sciences, University of Tokyo)
Application of positive characteristic methods to singularity theory (JAPANESE)
[ Abstract ]
As an application of positive characteristic methods to singularity theory, I will talk about a characterization of singularities in characteristic zero using Frobenius maps. Log canonical singularities form a class of singularities associated to the minimal model program. It is conjectured that they correspond to $F$-pure singularities, which form a class of singularities defined via splitting of Frobenius maps. In this talk, I will explain a recent progress on this conjecture, especially its connection to another conjecture on ordinary reductions of Calabi-Yau varieties defined over number fields.

Hung Yean Loke (National University of Singapore)
Local Theta lifts of unitary lowest weight modules to the indefinite orthogonal groups (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]

In this talk, I will discuss the local theta lifts of unitary lowest weight modules of $Sp(2p,R)$ to the indefinite orthogonal group $O(n,m)$. In a previous paper, Nishiyama and Zhu computed the associated cycles when the dual pair $Sp(2p,R) \\times O(m,n)$ lies in the stable range, ie. $2p \\leq \\min(m,n)$. In this talk, I will report on a joint work with Jiajun Ma and U-Liang Tang at NUS where we extend the computation beyond the stable range. Our approach is to analyze the coherent sheaves generated by the graded modules.
We will also need the Kobayashi's projection formula for discretely decomposable restrictions. Our study produces some interesting formulas on the $K$-types of the representations. In particular for some of these representations, the $K$-types formulas agree those in a conjecture of Vogan on the unipotent representations.

Remarks on filtrations of the singular homology of real varieties. (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
We discuss various conjectures about filtrations on the singular homology of real and complex varieties. We prove that a conjecture relating niveau filtration on Borel-Moore homology of real varieties and the image of generalized cycle maps from reduced Lawson homology is false. In the end, we discuss a certain decomposition of Borel-Haeflinger cycle map. This is a joint work with J.Heller.

Erwin Bolthausen (University of Zurich)
An iterative construction of solutions of the TAP equation (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
The TAP equation (Thouless-Anderson-Palmer) describes the so-called pure states in the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model. A mathematical rigorous derivation of the equation exists only in the high temperature regime. We propose an interative construction of solutions of the equations which is shown to converge up to the de Almayda-Thouless line. The iteration makes sense also beyond this line, but it fails to converge. However, some properties of the iteration can also been proved beyond the AT-line.

Wolfgang Koenig (Weierstrass Institute Berlin)
Eigenvalue order statistics and mass concentration in the parabolic Anderson model (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
We consider the random Schr\\"odinger operator on the lattice with i.i.d. potential, which is double-exponentially distributed. In a large box, we look at the lowest eigenvalues, together with the location of the centering of the corresponding eigenfunction, and derive a Poisson process limit law, after suitable rescaling and shifting, towards an explicit Poisson point process. This is a strong form of Anderson localization at the bottom of the spectrum. Since the potential is unbounded, also the eigenvalues are, and it turns out that the gaps between them are much larger than of inverse volume order. We explain an application to concentration properties of the corresponding Cauchy problem, the parabolic Anderson model. In fact, it will turn out that the total mass of the solution comes from just one island, asymptotically for large times. This is joint work in progress with Marek Biskup (Los Angeles and Budweis).

Gerd Faltings (Max Planck Institute for Mathematics, Bonn)
Nonabelian p-adic Hodge theory and Frobenius (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
Some time ago, I constructed a relation between Higgs-bundles and p-adic etale sheaves, on curves over a p-adic field. This corresponds (say in the abelian case) to a Hodge-Tate picture. In the lecture I try to explain one way to introduce Frobenius into the theory. We do not get a complete theory but at least can treat p-adic sheaves close to trivial.

"Inverse problems associated with linear and non-linear parabolic systems " (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
In this talk, I present several inverse reconstruction results for linear and non linear parabolic systems with different coupling terms : for linear systems with reaction-convection terms and for cooperative systems like Lotka Volterra systems with strong coupling terms. I will show different approaches to prove uniqueness of the coefficients via Carleman inequalities or via regularities properties of the solutions.

Obstructions to deforming curves on a uniruled 3-fold (JAPANESE)
[ Abstract ]
In this talk, I review some results from a joint work with Mukai:
1. a generalization of Mumford's example of a non-reduced component of the Hilbert scheme, and
2. a sufficient condition for a first order deformation of a curve on a uniruled 3-fold to be obstructed.
As a sequel of the study, we will discuss some obstructed deformations of degenerate curves on a higher dimensional scroll.

Cyclic K-theory (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
Cyclic K-theory is a variant of algebraic K-theory introduced by Goodwillie 25 years ago and more-or-less forgotten by now. I will try to convince the audience that cyclic K-theory is actually quite useful -- in particular, it can be effectively computed for varieties over a finite field.

HIROSE, Yuichi (Victoria University of Wellington)
Information criteria for parametric and semi-parametric models (JAPANESE)
[ Abstract ]
Since Akaike proposed an Information Criteria, this approach to
model selection has been important part of Statistical data analysis.
Since then many Information Criteria have been proposed and it is still
an active field of research. Despite there are many contributors in this
topic, we have not have proper Information Criteria for semiparametric
models. In this talk, we give ideas to develop an Information Criteria
for semiparametric models.

Comparison with Gieseker stability and slope stability via Bridgeland's stability (JAPANESE)
[ Abstract ]
In this talk we compare two classical notions of stability (Gieseker stability and slope stability) for sheaves on K3 surfaces by using stability conditions which was introduced by Bridgeland. As a consequence of this work, we give a classification of 2 dimensional moduli spaces of sheaves on K3 surface depending on the rank of the sheaves.
