Enright-Varadarajan modules and harmonic spinors
The aim of these lectures is twofold. First we would like to describe the construction of the Enright-Varadarajan modules which provide a nice algebraic characterization of discrete series representations. This construction uses several important tools of representations theory. Then we shall use the Enright-Varadarajan modules to define a product for harmonic spinors on homogeneous spaces.

数値解析:得られた成果と残された課題
有限要素法を中心とする偏微分方程式の数値計算と数値解析に従事して長い歳月を経た。その間に偏微分方程式としては、Poisson方程式、弾性論のCauchy-Navierの方程式、非圧縮流体のStokes方程式、平板の曲げに対する重調和方程式やReissner-Mindlinの方程式、電磁気学のMaxwell方程式、プラズマ平衡のGrad-Shafranov方程式などを扱ってきたが、得られた成果もかなりある反面、残された課題も多いと思う。定年退職にあたり、少々整理と総括をしておきたい。
正標数の世界に40年
正標数における代数幾何学には、標数0の場合とは異なる特有の現象がある。1950年代には、これらは病理的現象として捉えられ、研究している人の数も少なかった。現在では、特有の現象を扱うための手段がかなり整備され、正標数の様々な対象に対して興味ある現象が解析されている。代数多様体の単有理性、野性的ファイバーの問題、正標数特有のサイクルの構造等、これまで正標数の世界で行ってきた研究を中心に思い出を交えてお話ししたい。

Dirac Cohomology
Dirac operators have played an important role in representation theory. An early example is the construction of discrete series representations as spaces of L2 harmonic spinors on symmetric spaces G/K. More recently a very natural Dirac operator has been discovered by Kostant; it is referred to as the cubic Dirac operator. There are algebraic and geometric versions. Suppose G/H is a reductive homogeneous space and $\\mathfrak g = \\mathfrak h + \\mathfrak q$. Let S\\mathfrak q be the restriction of the spin representation of SO(\\mathfrak q) to H ⊂ SO(\\mathfrak q). The algebraic cubic Dirac operator is an H-homomorphism \\mathcal D: V \\otimes S\\mathfrak q → V \\otimes S\\mathfrak q, where V is an $\\mathfrak g$-module. The geometric geometric version is a differential operator acting on smooth sections of vector bundles of spinors on G/H. The algebraic cubic Dirac operator leads to a notion of Dirac cohomology, generalizing $\\mathfrak n$-cohomology. The lectures will roughly contain the following.
1.Construction of the spin representations of \\widetilde{SO}(n).
2.The algebraic cubic Dirac operator \\mathcal D: V \\otimes S\\mathfrak q → V \\otimes S\\mathfrak q will be defined and some properties, including a formula for the square, will be given.
3. Of special interest is the case when H=K, a maximal compact subgroup of G and V is a unitarizable $(\\mathfrak g,K)$-module. This case will be discussed.
4.The Dirac cohomology of a finite dimensional representation will be computed. We will see how this is related to $\\mathfrak n$-cohomology of V.
5. The relationship between the algebraic and geometric cubic Dirac operators will be described. A couple of open questions will then be discussed.
The lectures will be fairly elementary.

Harish-Chandra modules
We plan to give a course on the various types of topological globalizations of Harish-Chandra modules. It is intended to cover the following topics:
1.Topological representation theory on various types of locally convex vector spaces.
2.Basic algebraic theory of Harish-Chandra modules
3. Unique globalization versus lower bounds for matrix coefficients
4. Dirac type sequences for representations
5. Deformation theory of Harish-Chandra modules
The new material presented was obtained in collaboration with Joseph Bernstein and Henrik Schlichtkrull. A first reference is the recent preprint "Smooth Frechet Globalizations of Harish-Chandra Modules" by J. Bernstein and myself, downloadable at arXiv:0812.1684v1.
Special unipotent representations of real reductive groups
These lectures are aimed at beginning graduate students interested in the representation theory of real Lie groups. A familiarity with the theory of compact Lie groups and the basics of Harish-Chandra modules will be assumed. The goal of the lecture series is to give an exposition (with many examples) of the algebraic and geometric theory of special unipotent representations. These representations are of considerable interest; in particular, they are predicted to be the building blocks of all representation which can contribute to spaces of automorphic forms. They admit many beautiful characterizations, but their construction and unitarizability still remain mysterious.
The following topics are planned:
1.Algebraic definition of special unipotent representations and examples.
2.Localization and duality for Harish-Chandra modules.
3. Geometric definition of special unipotent representations.

Extending surface automorphisms over 4-space
Let $e: M^p\\to R^{p+2}$ be a co-dimensional 2 smooth embedding
from a closed orientable manifold to the Euclidean space and $E_e$ be the subgroup of ${\\cal M}_M$, the mapping class group
of $M$, whose elements extend over $R^{p+2}$ as self-diffeomorphisms. Then there is a spin structure
on $M$ derived from the embedding which is preserved by each $\\tau \\in E_e$.
Some applications: (1) the index $[{\\cal M}_{F_g}:E_e]\\geq 2^{2g-1}+2^{g-1}$ for any embedding $e:F_g\\to R^4$, where $F_g$
is the surface of genus $g$. (2) $[{\\cal M}_{T^p}:E_e]\\geq 2^p-1$ for any unknotted embedding
$e:T^p\\to R^{p+2}$, where $T^p$ is the $p$-dimensional torus. Those two lower bounds are known to be sharp.
This is a joint work of Ding-Liu-Wang-Yao.

Carleman type estimates with two large parameters and applications to elasticity theory woth residual stress
We give Carleman estimates with two large parameters for general second order partial differential operators with real-valued coefficients.
We outline proofs based on differential quadratic forms and Fourier analysis. As an application, we give Carleman estimates for (anisotropic)elasticity system with residual stress and discuss applications to control theory and inverse problems.

Determining moving boundaries from Cauchy data on remote surfaces
We consider wave equations in domains with time-dependent boundaries (moving obstacles) contained in a fixed cylinder for all time. We give sufficient conditions for the determination of the moving boundary from the Cauchy data on part of the boundary of the cylinder. We also study the related problem of reachability of the moving boundary by time-like curves from the boundary of the cylinder.

Carleman estimates for the heat equation with discontinuous diffusion coefficients and applications
We consider a heat equation in a bounded domain. We assume that the coefficient depends on the spatial variable and admits a discontinuity across an interface. We prove a Carleman estimate for the solution of the above heat equation without assumptions on signs of the jump of the coefficient.

Reconstruction of biological tissue conductivity by MREIT technique
Magnetic resonance electrical impedance tomography (MREIT) is a new technique in medical imaging, which aims to provide electrical conductivity images of biological tissue. Compared with the traditional electrical impedance tomography (EIT)model, MREIT reconstructs the interior conductivity from the deduced magnetic field information inside the tissue. Since the late 1990s, MREIT imaging techniques have made significant progress experimentally and numerically. However, the theoretical analysis on the MREIT algorithms is still at the initial stage. In this talk, we will give a state of the art of the MREIT technique and to concern the convergence property as well as the numerical implementation of harmonic B_z algorithm and nonlinear integral equation algorithm. We present some late advances in the convergence issues of MREIT algorithm. Some open problems related to the noisy effects and the numerical implementations are also given.

相関関数の構成要素
2次元の可積分な格子模型や、それと等価な1次元量子スピンチェインは、ベーテ、オンサーガー以来多くの研究が重ねられ、詳細に調べられている。ハミルトニアンのスペクトルと並ぶ重要な物理量に相関関数がある。イジング模型や共形場理論では相関関数自身が微分方程式で特徴づけられるがこのような簡明な結果はそれ以外の場合には知られていない。イジング模型を超える代表的な例として1次元のXXZ模型がある。相関関数は多重積分であらわされ、その長距離漸近挙動の研究が近年フランスのグループにより大きく進展している。
講演の前半では、相関関数に焦点をあててこれまでの研究の歴史を概観する。結合定数や温度などのパラメータの関数として見た場合、相関関数は2つの要素的超越関数から原理的には有理的に決まっていることがわかる。後半ではこの話題を紹介したい。

and in-phase solutions in the coupled van der Pol equation system
We consider the periodic solutions of the coupled van der Pol equation system $\\Sigma$, which is quite different from the ordinary van der Pol equation. We show the necessary and sufficient condition for the periodic solutions of $\\Sigma$. Non-existence theorem of periodic solutions except out-of-phase and in-phase solutions in $\\Sigma$ is presented.

ASYMPTOTIC EXPANSIONS FOR SOME HYPERBOLIC EQUATIONS 第3講
For a linear second-order hyperbolic equation with variable coefficients the fundamental solution for the Cauchy problem is considered. An asymptotic expansion of this solution in a neighborhood of the characteristic cone is introduced and explicit formulae for coefficients of this expansion are derived. Similar questions are discussed for the elasticity equations related to an inhomogeneous isotropic medium.

Direct and inverse problems in fluid-solid interaction
We consider the interaction between an elastic body and a compressible inviscid fluid, which occupies the unbounded exterior domain. The direct problem is to determine the scattered pressure field in the fluid domain as well as the displacement field in the elastic body, while the inverse problem is to reconstruct the shape of the elastic body from the far field pattern of the fluid pressure. We present a variational approach to the direct problem and two reconstruction methods for the inverse problem, which are based on nonlinear optimization and regularization.
