Droplet phases in non-local Ginzburg-Landau models with Coulomb repulsion in two dimensions
[ Abstract ]
In this talk I will present an analysis of the behavior of the minimal energy in non-local Ginzburg-Landau models with Coulomb repulsion in two space dimensions near the onset of multi-droplet patterns. As a first step, I will show that under suitable scaling the energy of minimizers becomes asymptotically equal to that of a sharp interface energy with screened Coulomb interaction. I will then show that the minimizers of the corresponding sharp interface energy consist of nearly identical circular droplets of small size separated by large distances. Finally, I will show that in a suitable limit these droplets become uniformly distributed throughout the domain. The analysis allows to obtain precise asymptotic behaviors of the bifurcation threshold, the minimal energy, the droplet radii, and the droplet density in the considered limit.

Loewner's theory on complex manifolds (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
Loewner's theory, introduced by Ch. Loewner in 1923 and developed later by Pommerenke, Kufarev, Schramm and others, has been proved to be a very powerful tool in studying extremal problems. In this talk we are going to describe a unified and general view of the deterministic Loewner theory both on the unit disc and on Kobayashi hyperbolic manifolds.

Uuganbayar Zunderiya (Nagoya University)
Generalized hypergeometric systems (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
A new type of hypergeometric differential equations was introduced and studied by H. Sekiguchi. The investigated system of partial differential equation generalizes the Gauss-Aomoto-Gelfand system which in its turn stems from the classical set of differential relations for the solutions to a generic algebraic equation introduced by K.Mayr in 1937. Gauss-Aomoto-Gelfand systems can be expressed as the determinants of $2\\times 2$ matrices of derivations with respect to certain variables. H. Sekiguchi generalized this construction by looking at determinations of arbitrary $l\\times l$ matrices of derivations with respect to certain variables.

In this talk we study the dimension of global (and local) solutions to the generalized systems of Gauss-Aomoto-Gelfand hypergeometric systems. The main results in the talk are a combinatorial formula for the dimension of global (and local) solutions of the generalized Gauss-Aomoto-Gelfand system and a theorem on generic holonomicity of a certain class of such systems.

The Galois group of projectively isomonodromic deformations (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
Isomonodromic families of regular singular differential equations over $\\mathbb C(x)$ are characterized by the fact that their parametrized differential Galois group is conjugate to a (constant) linear algebraic group over $\\mathbb C$. We will describe properties of this differential group that reflect a special type of monodromy evolving deformation of Fuchsian differential equations.

The cohomological weighted fundamental lemma
[ Abstract ]
Using the Hitchin fibration, Ngo Bao Chau has proved the Langlands-Shelstad fundamental lemma. In a joint work with Pierre-Henri Chaudouard, we have extended Ngo's proof to obtain the weighted fundamental lemma which had been conjectured by Arthur. In the talk, I would like to present our main cohomological result.

Torsors in non-commutative geometry (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
G-torsors or principal homogeneous spaces are familiar objects in geometry. I'll present an extension of such objects to "non-commutative geometry". When the structural group G is finite, non-commutative G-torsors are governed by a group that has both an arithmetic component and a geometric one. The arithmetic part is given by a classical Galois cohomology group; the geometric input is encoded in a (not necessarily abelian) group that takes into account all normal abelian subgroups of G of central type. Various examples will be exhibited.

On the characters of tempered modules of affine Hecke
algebras of classical type
[ Abstract ]
We present an inductive algorithm to compute the characters
of tempered modules of an affine Hecke algebras of classical
types, based on a new class of representations which we call
"tempered delimits". They have some geometric origin in the
eDL correspondence.

Our new algorithm has some advantage to the Lusztig-Shoji
algorithm (which also describes the characters of tempered
modules via generalized Green functions) in the sense it
enables us to tell how the characters of tempered modules
changes as the parameters vary.

This is a joint work with Dan Ciubotaru at Utah.

From Lang's Conjecture to finiteness properties of Torelli groups
[ Abstract ]
First we recall one of Lang's conjectures in diophantine geometry
on the interplay between subvarieties and translated subgroups in a
commutative algebraic group
(proved by M. Laurent in the case of affine tori in 1984).

Then we present the technique of resonance and characteristic varieties,
a powerful tool in the study of fundamental groups of algebraic varieties.


Finally, using the two ingredients above, we show that the Torelli
groups $T_g$
have some surprising finiteness properties for $g>3$.
In particular, we show that for any subgroup $N$ in $T_g$ containing
the Johnson kernel $K_g$, the complex vector space $N_{ab} \\otimes C$
is finite dimensional.

All the details are available in our joint preprint with S. Papadima
arXiv:1002.0673.

Inference for partially observed Markov processes and applications
[ Abstract ]
We present some statistical methods for estimating the param- eters of a population dynamics model of annual plants. It is modelled using multitype branching processes with immigration. The data consist of counts in each type that are measured in several populations for a few consecu- tive years. Parametric inference is first carried out when count data of all types are observed. We prove statistical identifiability for all the parameters ruling the population dynamics model and derive consistent and asymptot- ically Gaussian estimators. However, it often occurs that, in practice, one or more types cannot be observed, leading to partially observed processes. Parametric inference is first studied in the case of Poisson distributions. We characterize the parameter subset where identifiability holds and de- rive consistent and asymptotically normal estimators for this parameter subset. Theses results are then extended to other distributions.

We apply these results to feral oilseed data. The model takes account of reproduction, immigration, and seed survival in a seed bank. The data consist of the number of plants in several developmental stages that were measured in a number of populations for few consecutive years. They are incomplete since seeds could not be counted.

Heuristic Choice Rules for Convex Variational Regularization
[ Abstract ]
In this talk we shall consider heuristic rules for choosing regularization parameters for general convex variational regularization of linear inverse problems. Several rules of recent origin are described, and some theoretical issues, e.g. existence, convergence, and a posteriori error estimates, are discussed. Numerical examples will be presented to demonstrate their accuracy and practical utility.

Modern computer architectures for tsunami simulation
[ Abstract ]
Simulation of tsunami wave propagation over the deep water is one of the most time consuming tasks of the tsunami warning system. The authors utilize Method of Splitting Tsunami (MOST) package, accepted by the National Ocean & Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), USA. The software generates calculation of wave propagation at deep water by splitting along coordinate axis. Nonlinear shallow water system is used as the governing equations. Some tasks of the algorithm could be executed in parallel mode, however, direct application of multi processor systems results only in two times performance gain. After a number of optimizations, the authors achieved 16 times performance gain. OpenMP technology was applied. When utilizing Sony PlayStation3 platform (IBM CELL BE architecture) 60 times code acceleration was accomplished. The best result was achieved with modern GPU (GForce 8800 and TESLA), 100 times performance gain.

Stability estimates for the anisotropic wave and Schrodinger equations from
the Dirichlet to Neumann map
[ Abstract ]
In this talk we want to obtain stability estimates for the inverse problem of determining the electric potential or the conformal factor in a wave or Schrodinger equations in an anisotropic media with Dirichlet data from measured Neumann boundary observations. This information is enclosed in the dynamical Dirichlet-to-Neumann map associated to the wave equation. We prove in dimension $n\\geq 2$ that the knowledge of the Dirichlet to Neumann map for the wave equation measured on the boundary uniquely determines the electric potential and we prove H\\"older-type stability in determining the potential. We prove similar results for the determination of a conformal factor close to 1.

On uniqueness in inverse elastic obstacle scattering
[ Abstract ]
The talk is on joint work with M. Yamamoto on the third and fourth exterior boundary value problems of linear isotropic elasticity. We present uniqueness results for the corresponding inverse scattering problems with polyhedral-type obstacles and a finite number of incident plane elastic waves.
Our approach is essentially based on a reflection principle for the Navier equation.

A Regularization Parameter for Nonsmooth Tikhonov Regularization
[ Abstract ]
We develop a novel criterion for choosing regularization parameters for nonsmooth Tikhonov functionals. The proposed criterion is solely based on the value function, and thus applicable to a broad range of functionals. It is analytically compared with the local minimum criterion, and a posteriori error estimates are derived. An efficient numerical algorithm for computing the minimizer is developed, and its convergence properties are also studied. Numerical results for several common nonsmooth functionals are presented.

BROWNIAN COVARIATION AND CO-JUMPS, GIVEN DISCRETE OBSERVATION
[ Abstract ]
We consider two processes driven by Brownian motions plus drift and possibly infinite activity jumps.

Given discrete observations we separately estimate the covariation between the two Brownian parts and the sum of the co-jumps. This allows to gain insight into the dependence structure of the processes and has important applications in finance.

Our estimator is based on a threshold principle allowing to isolate the jumps over a threshold.

The estimator of the continuous covariation is asymptotically Gaussian and converges at speed square root of n when the jump components have finite variation. In presence infinite variation jumps the speed is heavily influenced both by the small jumps dependence structure and by their jump activity indexes.

This talk is based on Mancini and Gobbi (2009), and Mancini (2010).

Statistical inference in the partial observation setting, in continuous time
[ Abstract ]
In various fields, the {\\it signal} process, whose law depends on an unknown parameter $ artheta \\in \\Theta \\subset \\R^p$, can not be observed directly but only through an {\\it observation} process. We will talk about the so called fractional partial observation setting, where the observation process $Y=\\left( Y_t, t \\geq 0 ight)$ is given by a stochastic differential equation: egin{equation} \\label{mod:modelgeneral} Y_t = Y_0 + \\int_0^t h(X_s, artheta) ds + \\sigma W^H_t\\,, \\quad t > 0 \\end{equation} where the function $ h: \\, \\R imes \\Theta \\longrightarrow \\R$ and the constant $\\sigma>0$ are known and the noise $\\left( W^H_t\\,, t\\geq 0 ight)$ is a fractional Brownian motion valued in $\\R$ independent of the signal process $X$ and the initial condition $Y_0$. In this setting, the estimation of the unknown parameter $ artheta \\in \\Theta$ given the observation of the continuous sample path $Y^T=\\left( Y_t , 0 \\leq t \\leq T ight)$, $T>0$, naturally arises.
