q-Fock空間と非対称Macdonald多項式
斎藤-竹村-Uglov,Varagnolo-Vasserotによって,q-Fock空間に
A型量子トロイダル代数のレベル(0,1)表現の構造が入ることが知られています.
この表現をある可換部分代数に制限して得られる作用の同時固有ベクトルを,
非対称Macdonald多項式を用いて構成することができます.
さらにこの同時固有ベクトルをq-Fock空間の基底とすることで,
量子トロイダル代数の作用を組合せ論的に記述することができます.
今回のセミナーでは,斎藤-竹村-Uglov,Varagnolo-Vasserotの構成を
振り返ったあとで,同時固有ベクトルの構成法を紹介します.
最後に箙多様体の同変K群との関連について少しだけ言及します.
The Quantum Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov Equation
and Non-symmetric Macdonald Polynomials
We construct special solutions of the quantum Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov equation
on the tensor product of the vector representation of
the quantum algebra of type $A_{N-1}$.
They are constructed from non-symmetric Macdonald polynomials
through the action of the affine Hecke algebra.
As special cases,
(i) the matrix element of the vertex operators
of level one is reproduced, and
(ii) we give solutions of level $\\frac{N+1}{N}-N$.
(ii) is a generalization of the solution of
level $-\\frac{1}{2}$ by V.Pasquier and me.
This is a jount work with Y.Takeyama.

Dynamics on diffeomorphism groups: shocks of the Burgers equation and hydrodynamical instability
We describe a simple relation between curvatures of the group of volume-preserving diffeomorphisms (responsible for Lagrangian instability of ideal fluids via Arnold's approach) and the generation of shocks for potential solutions of the inviscid
Burgers equation (important in mass transport). For this we characterize focal points of the group of volume-preserving diffeomorphism, regarded as a submanifold in all diffeomorphisms and the corresponding conjugate points along geodesics in the Wasserstein space of densities.
Further, we consider the non-holonomic optimal transport problem,
related to the following non-holonomic version of the classical Moser theorem: given a bracket-generating distribution on a manifold two volume forms of equal total volume can be isotoped by the flow of a vector field tangent to this distribution.

The numerical treatment of pricing early exercise options under L'evy processes
In this presentation we will discuss the pricing of American and Bermudan options under L'evy process dynamics.
Two different approaches will be discussed: First of all, modelling with differential operators gives rise to the numerical solution of a partial-integro differential equation for obtaining European option prices. For American prices a linear complementarity problem with the partial integro-differential operator needs to be solved. We outline the difficulties and possible solutions in this context.
At the same time we would also like to present a different pricing approach based on numerical integration and the fast Fourier Transform. Both approaches are compared in terms of accuracy and efficiency.

Acoustic Modeling and Osteoporotic Evaluation of Bone
In this talk we discuss the modeling of the acoustic response of cancellous bone using the methods of homogenization.
This can lead to Biot type equations or more generalized equations. We develop the effective acoustic equations for cancellous bone. It is assumed that the bone matrix is elastic and the interstitial blood-marrow can be modeled as a Navier-Stokes system.
We also discuss the use of the Biot model and consider its applicability to cancellous bone. One of the questions this talk addresses is whether the clinical experiments customarily performed can be used to determine the parameters of the Biot or other bone models. A parameter recovery algorithm which uses parallel processing is developed and tested.

A semidiscrete scheme for the Perona Malik equation
We discuss the convergence of the spatial semidiscrete scheme for the one-dimensional Perona-Malik equation. If the initial datum is 1-Lipschitz out of a finite number of jump points, we haracterize the problem satisfied by the limit solution. In the general case, we construct a solution by a careful inspection of the behaviour of the approximating solutions in a space-time neighbourhood of the jump points.

Stability theory in L^p for the space-inhomogeneous Boltzmann equation
In this talk, I will present kinetic nonlinear funtionals which are similar in sprit to Glimm type functionals in one-dimensional hyperbolic conservation laws. These functionals measures the dispersive mechanism of the Boltzmann equation near vacuum and can be used to the study of the large-time behavior and L^p-stability of the Boltzmann equation near vacuum. This is a joint work with M. Yamazaki (Univ. of Tsukuba) and Seok-Bae Yun (Seoul National Univ.)

Lectures
Stan Osher (UCLA)
The level set method, multivalued solutions and image science
During the past two decades variational and partial differential based methods have greatly affected the fields of image processing, computer vision and graphics (image science in general). Almost simultaneously the level set method for computing moving interfaces has impacted many areas of mathematics, engineering and applied science, including image science. I will try to give an overview of the basics and recent advances in these topics.

Dietmar Hoemberg (Berlin Technical University)
Optimal control of semilinear parabolic equations and an application to laser material treatments
Many technological processes can be described by partial differential equations. For many years the role of industrial mathematics was mainly to try to understand the respective process, to derive an appropriate PDE or ODE model for it and to simulate it using, e.g., a finite-element code.
However, the ultimate goal usually is to try to optimize the process. Mathematically, this requires the solution of an optimal control problem, i.e., a constrained nonlinear optimization problem in which the constraints are PDEs.
The goal of these two talks is to give an overview of the theory and numerics of optimal control of PDEs for the case of parabolic state equations including an application in laser material treatments. More specifically, I will focus on the following topics.

Finite-dimensional representations of the small quantum algebras
量子代数は定義にパラメーターを一つ含み、量子代数の表現論は、
そのパラメーターが1のべき根であるか、そうでないかによって大きく異なる。
さらに、1のべき根の場合は、Lusztig氏によって定義された「制限型量子代数」と、
De Conini-Kac氏らによって定義された「非制限型量子代数」の2種類が存在し、
それぞれ表現論が異なる。
また、制限型量子代数は、「小型量子代数(=small quantum algebra)」と
呼ばれる真部分代数を含み、その表現論は、制限型量子代数と非制限型量子代数の
どちらの表現論においても重要な役割を果たしている。
今回の講演では、主に以下の3点について説明したい:
●小型量子代数が、非制限型量子代数のある商代数と同型になることを、
有限型とループ型の場合に示す。
●A, B, C, D, G型の小型量子代数の有限次元既約表現を、
Schnizer表現の部分表現として構成する。
●A型の小型ループ量子代数のevaluation表現の性質を調べる。

Multiple positive solutions for classes of elliptic systems with combined nonlinear effects
We study the existence of multiple positive solutions to systems of the form
-\\Delta u = \\lambda f(v)
-\\Delta v = \\lambda g(u)
in a bounded domain in R^N under the Dirichlet boundary conditions. Here f, g belong to a class of positive functions having a combined sublinear effect at infinity. Our result also easily extends to the corresponding p-Laplacian systems. We prove our results by the method of sub and super solutions.
