Shinobu Hosono (The University of Tokyo)
Topics on string theory, mirror symmetry, and Gromov-Witten invariants
[ Abstract ]
Recently, some technical developments in solving BCOV
(Bershadsky-Cecotti-Ooguri-Vafa) holomorphic anomaly equation has been
made and it has become possible to predict higher genus Gromov-Witten
invariants for some class of Calabi-Yau 3 folds.

With a brief introduction to BCOV equation, I will present some
predictions for Gromov-Witten invariants of certain Calabi-Yau 3 folds,
which are not birational but derived equivalent. (This is based on
a work with Y. Konishi which appeared in mathAG/0704.2928.)

Before coming to this specific topic, I will review some recent
topics of the homological mirror symmetry focusing on
its connection to the `classical' mirror symmetry, where the
variation theory of Hodge structures (VHS) plays a central role.
The BCOV equation and its open string generalization have their grounds
on the VHS.

A propagation formula for principal series Whittaker functions on $GL(3,C)$
[ Abstract ]
$GL(n,\\mathbf{R})$上のクラス1Whittaker関数を$GL(n-1,\\mathbf{R})$上の同関数で表す公式が石井-Stadeにより得られてる(J. Funct. Anal. 244 (2007))。また、$GL(n,\\mathbf{R})$および$GL(n,\\mathbf{C})$上のクラス1Whittaker関数のelementaryな関係(Stade (1995)) により、この公式は$GL(n,\\mathbf{C})$上のクラス1Whittaker関数に対しても成立する。ここでは$GL(3,\\mathbf{C})$上のクラス1でない主系列Whittaker関数の明示公式(織田孝幸氏との共同研究)に基づき、これを$GL(2,\\mathbf{C})$上のクラス1でない主系列Whittaker関数で表す類似の公式を紹介する。

A multiplicative analogue of quiver variety
[ Abstract ]
本講演では,箙(quiver)に付随して現れる新しい複素シンプレクティック多様体を紹介する.これは中島によって導入された箙多様体と非常に良く似た構成をする事で得られるが,違いは運動量写像ではなく群値運動量写像と呼ばれるものを使って商を取るところにある.この多様体は箙多様体と良く似た幾何学的性質を有し,一方,星型箙の場合に点付きRiemann球面上の放物接続のモジュライ空間とRiemann-Hilbert対応によって関係している.また箙多様体との直接的な関係も存在している.これらについて説明したい.

p-adic Hodge theory in the non-commutative setting
[ Abstract ]
We will explain what is the natural replacement of the notion of Hodge structure in the p-adic setting, and how to construct such a structure for non-commutative manifolds (something which at present cannot be done for the usual Hodge structures, but works perfectly well for the p-adic analog).

Classification of codimension-one locally free actions of the affine group of the real line.
[ Abstract ]
By GA, we denote the group of affine and orientation-preserving transformations
of the real line. In this talk, I will report on classification of locally free action of
GA on closed three manifolds, which I obtained recently. In 1979, E.Ghys proved
that if such an action preserves a volume, then it is smoothly conjugate to a homogeneous action. However, it was unknown whether non-homogeneous action exists. As a consequence of the classification, we will see that the unit tangent bundle of a closed surface of higher genus admits a finite-parameter family of
non-homogeneous actions.

Rankin-Cohen brackets and covariant quantization
[ Abstract ]
The particular geometric structure of causal symmetric spaces permits the definition of a covariant quantization of these homogeneous manifolds.
Composition formulae (#-products) of quantizad operators give rise to a new interpretation of Rankin-Cohen brackets and allow to connect them with the branching laws of tensor products of holomorphic discrete series representations.

Invariant integral operators on affine G-varieties and their kernels
[ Abstract ]
We consider certain invariant integral operators on a smooth affine variety M carrying the action of a reductive algebraic group G, and assume that G acts on M with an open orbit. Then M is isomorphic to a homogeneous vector bundle, and can locally be described via the theory of prehomogenous vector spaces. We then study the Schwartz kernels of the considered operators, and give a description of their singularities using the calculus of b-pseudodifferential operators developed by Melrose. In particular, the restrictions of the kernels to the diagonal can be described in terms of local zeta functions.

Irreducible unitary representations and automorphic forms

[ Abstract ]
Unitary representations of adelic groups in the spaces of automorphic forms are big source of important irreducible unitary representations of classical groups over local fields.

We shall present classifications of some classes of irreducible unitary representations (older, as well as quite new), describe
isolated unitary representations among them, and discuss which of them can be obtained from spaces of automorphic forms.

Floor diagrams and enumeration of tropical curves
[ Abstract ]
The enumerative problems considered in this talk are finding the number of curves in projective spaces (over complex, real and tropical numbers) of given genus and degree constrained by certain incidence conditions (e.g. passing via points or lines). Floor diagrams are a combinatorial tool that reduces an enumerative problem in dimension n to the corresponding problem n dimension n-1. Floor diagrams give a constructive (and rather efficient) way to find all tropical curves for a given enumerative problem. And once we have a tropical solution of the problem we can use it to solve the corresponding problems over the complex and real numbers.

Etale cobordism
[ Abstract ]
We define and study a new candidate of etale topological cohomology theories for schemes over a field of abritrary characteristic: etale cobordism. As etale K-theory is related to algebraic K-theory, etale cobordism is related to algebraic cobordism of Voevodsky and Levine/Morel. It shares some nice properties of topological theories, e.g. it is equipped with an Atiyah-Hirzebruch spectral sequence from etale cohomology. We discuss in particular a comparison theorem between etale and algebraic cobordism after inverting a Bott element and, finally, we give an outlook to further possible applications of this theory.

Presentation of mapping class groups from algebraic geometry
[ Abstract ]
A presentation of the mapping class group of a genus g surface with one hole is due to Wajnryb with later improvements due to M. Matsumoto. The generators are Dehn twists defined by 2g+1 closed curves on the surface. The relations involving only two Dehn twists are the familiar Artin relations, we show that those involving more than two can be derived from algebro-geometry considerations.

Reguarity of Weak Solutions to the Navier-Stokes System beyond Serrin's Criterion
[ Abstract ]
Consider a weak instationary solution $u(x,t)$ of the Navier-Stokes equations in a domain $\\Omega \\subset \\mathbb{R}^3$ in the sense of Leray-Hopf. As is well-known, $u$ is is unique and regular if $u\\in L^s(0,T;L^q(\\Omega))$ satisfies the {\\it strong energy inequality} and $s,q$ satisfy Serrin's condition $\\frac{2}{s} + \\frac{3}{q}=1$, $s>2,\\, q>3$. Now consider $u$ such that $$u\\in L^r(0,T;L^q(\\Omega))\\quad \\mbox{ where }\\quad \\frac{2}{r} + \\frac{3}{q}>1$$ and has a sufficiently small norm in $L^r(0,T;L^q(\\Omega))$. Then we will prove that $u$ is regular. Similar results of local rather than global type in space will be proved provided that $u$ satisfies the {\\it localized energy inequality}. Finally H\\"older continuity of the kinetic energy in time will imply regularity.

The proofs use local in time regularity results which are based on the {\\it theory of very weak solutions} and on uniqueness arguments for weak solutions.

大規模ランダム行列のスペクトル理論とデータ解析への応用(Review)
[ Abstract ]
The empirical spectral distribution of random matrices have been studied since Wigner's pioneering work on the semicircular law in the 1950's. The result says that the empirical spectral distribution of a symmetric matrix with i.i.d. random elements converges to the semicircular law as the size of the matrix becomes large. Though this result is beautiful in theory, its application has been limited to a few problems in nuclear physics and coding theory. The next breakthrough was the Marcenko-Pastur (M-P) law for the asymptotic spectral distribution of sample covariance matrices. The M-P law has found more applications, in particular high dimensional statistical data analysis, than the semicircular law.

In this talk I will first review these two significant results. Each of them has three completely different proofs. Then I will explain several other theoretical results that have mostly been studied this decade. Finally, I will present some of the applications of these results. This review is partly based on lectures on random matrices given by P. Bickel, N. El-Karoui and A. Guionnet, and also some seminars at UC Berkeley.

(# This talk is almost the same as the talk I gave at ISM on June 1.)
