Andrei Pajitnov (Université de Nantes)
Morse-Novikov theory for links (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
Let M be a compact manifold with a non-empty boundary N, and x an element of the first cohomology group of M. We assume that the restriction of x to N can be represented by a fibration over a circle. The Morse-Novikov number MN(M,x) is the minimal possible number of critical points of a Morse map f of M to a circle, such that [f]=x, and the restriction of f to N is a fibration over the circle. In this talk we present our results about the Morse-Novikov numbers for the exteriors of links in 3-sphere. This is joint work with L. Chen and H. Endo.

Naoto Yotsutani (Shizuoka Univ./IMAG, Univ. Montpellier)
Secondary polytopes of spherical varieties (Japanese)
[ Abstract ]
This talk is based on ongoing joint work with Thibaut Delcroix and King Leung Lee. Our main objective is to investigate the Chow stability of spherical varieties.
A celebrated theorem of Gelfand, Kapranov, Sturmfels, and Zelevinsky (1992) states that the Chow polytopes of projective toric varieties coincide with their secondary polytopes. In the spherical setting, one can construct an analogous polytope, which may be viewed as a natural generalization of the secondary polytope of a toric variety. In this talk, I will explain the construction of this polytope and its relation to Chow stability. Particular emphasis will be placed on how the classical GKZ argument in the toric setting can be adapted to the broader context of spherical varieties.

Manasa Nagatsu (Kyoto University)
Large $N$ expansion for smooth multi-trace spectral statistics of
classical matrix ensembles, central limit theorems and matrix integrals.
[ Abstract ]
We consider expectations of the form $E [tr h_1(X_1^N)... tr h_r(X_r^N)]$,
where $X_i^N$ are self-adjoint polynomials in various independent
classical random matrices and $h_i$ are smooth test function and obtain a
large $N$ expansion of these quantities, building on the framework of
polynomial approximation and Bernstein-type inequalities recently
developed by Chen, Garza-Vargas, Tropp, and van Handel.
As applications of the above, we prove the higher-order asymptotic
vanishing of cumulants for smooth linear statistics, establish a Central
Limit Theorem, and demonstrate the existence of formal asymptotic
expansions for the free energy and observables of matrix integrals with
smooth potentials.
In addition to presenting these results, we will briefly review the role
of linear statistics in random matrix theory and discuss the motivation
behind the large $N$ expansion framework introduced in the context of
strong convergence.
This talk is based on joint work with Benoit Collins.

Discontinuous homomorphisms without Hamel bases
Paul Larson (Miami University)
Discontinuous homomorphisms without Hamel bases
[ Abstract ]
A Hamel basis for the real line is a basis for the line over the scalar field of rational numbers. The Axiom of Choice implies that Hamel bases exist. It is a classical fact that every measurable homomorphism from the additive group on the real line to itself is continuous, and therefore is given by multiplication by some real number. However, permutations of Hamel bases naturally give rise to discontinuous homomorphisms. In this talk we will show that this implication cannot be reversed, by forcing to produce a model of ZF in which there exists a discontinuous homomorphism but there is no Hamel basis. This is joint work with Saharon Shelah.

Yuto Moriwaki (RIKEN iTHEMS)
Conformally flat factorization homology (JAPANESE)
[ Abstract ]
This talk presents conformally flat factorization homology, introduced as a conformal Riemannian analogue of Lurie's factorization homology. Ordinary factorization homology takes a d-disk algebra as input and produces invariants of d-dimensional manifolds that are independent of the choice of metric. In contrast, conformally flat factorization homology takes as input a conformally flat d-disk algebra, which is an algebra over the operad formed by conformal open embeddings of disks, and constructs, via its left Kan extension, metric-dependent invariants of conformally flat Riemannian manifolds.
This theory provides a framework connecting representations of local conformal transformations with Riemannian geometric invariants, and describes the local structure of d-dimensional conformal field theory. The talk will also discuss concrete examples constructed using Bergman spaces and Grunsky operators in dimension two, and using unitary representations of SO+(d,1) in dimensions three and higher.
This talk is based on arXiv:2602.08729 and arXiv:2603.06491.

Tomoyuki Ichiba (University of California Santa Barbara)
Feynman formula for discrete-time quantum walk and its applications
[ Abstract ]
We explicitly connect (discrete-time) quantum walks on Z with a four-state Markov additive process via a Feynman-type formula. Using this representation, we derive a relation between the spectral decomposition of the Markov additive process and the limiting density of the homogeneous quantum walk. In addition, we consider a space-time rescaling of quantum walks, which leads to a system of quantum transport PDEs of Dirac type in continuous time and space with phase interaction and potential terms. Our probabilistic representation for this type of PDE offers its stochastic extension as well as an efficient Monte Carlo computational technique. This is joint work with Jean-Pierre Fouque and Ka Lok Lam.

Ana Caraiani (Imperial College London)
Towards an Eichler-Shimura decomposition for ordinary p-adic Siegel modular forms
[ Abstract ]
There are two different ways to construct families of ordinary p-adic Siegel modular forms. One is by p-adically interpolating classes in Betti cohomology, first introduced by Hida and then given a more representation-theoretic interpretation by Emerton. The other is by p-adically interpolating classes in coherent cohomology, once again pioneered by Hida and generalised in recent years by Boxer and Pilloni. I will explain these two constructions and then discuss joint work in progress with James Newton and Juan Esteban Rodríguez Camargo that aims to compare them.

Calvin Pfeifer (University of Cologne)
Generic modules arising from stability (English)
[ Abstract ]
This talk is a report on joint work in progress with Lidia Angeleri-Hügel and Rosanna Laking. Our aim is to extend parts of the theory of large modules over tame hereditary algebras to arbitrary tame algebras.
Let A be a tame finite dimensional algebra over an algebraically closed field, and θ an additive functional on the Grothendieck group of A. Baumann, Kamnitzer and Tingley associate to θ a wide interval in the lattice of torsion classes of the category of finite dimensional A-modules, whose corresponding wide subcategory consists of the θ-semistable A-modules in the sense of King. Angeleri-Hügel, Laking and Sentieri use cosilting theory to assign to such a wide interval a closed rigid subset of the Ziegler spectrum of the unbounded derived category of all A-modules. On the other hand, Plamondon associates to θ a generically $τ^-$-regular irreducible component of the scheme of A-modules. In this talk, we will explain how the closed rigid subset of the Ziegler spectrum is determined by generic modules constructed from the generically $τ^-$-regular irreducible component.

Masato Tanabe (RIKEN iTHEMS)
Thom polynomials relative to maps prescribed near the boundary (JAPANESE)
[ Abstract ]
Thom polynomials are universal cohomological obstructions to the appearance of singularities of given types in differentiable maps. Introduced by R. Thom in the 1950s, they have been extensively studied ever since. In one important line of applications, various invariants of immersions have been expressed in terms of singularities of their extensions (a.k.a. singular Seifert surfaces). However, these formulas are obtained in different forms and remain somewhat scattered.
In this talk, as the first step to unify them, I would like to introduce the notion of Thom polynomials relative to prescribed maps around the boundary. As a main result, we show a structure theorem of Thom polynomials relative to framed immersions. In fact, most of the earlier formulas are summarized as the vanishing of "correction terms" appearing in the structure theorem. Our key tools are Steenrod's obstruction theory and Kervaire's relative characteristic classes, and the K-invariance of singularity types plays an important role.

Yoshihiko Matsumoto (The Univ. of Osaka)
CR-invariant energy of Legendrian knots in the Heisenberg group (Japanese)
[ Abstract ]
We introduce an energy functional for Legendrian knots in the 3-dimensional Heisenberg group, which carries a natural contact structure. This is an analogue of the energy for ordinary knots in Euclidean 3-space due to O'Hara (1991). Whereas O'Hara's energy (more precisely, the one of exponent -2) is invariant under Möbius transformations, our energy for Legendrian knots is invariant under the action of PU(2,1), the group of CR automorphisms of the one-point compactification of the Heisenberg group. I would like to explain carefully how the energy should be defined so as to achieve the PU(2,1)-invariance, and how R-circles, a distinguished class of Legendrian (un)knots, arise as energy minimizers. Time permitting, I will also discuss some open problems. This talk is based on joint work with Jun O'Hara (Chiba University).

Shobu Shiraki (University of Zagreb)
Beckner's sharp inequalities revisited on binary cubes (Japanese)
[ Abstract ]
The Hausdorff–Young inequality and Young’s convolution inequality are fundamental tools in harmonic analysis. The landmark paper “Inequalities in Fourier Analysis” by William Beckner (Ann. of Math., 1975) established the exact values of the sharp constants appearing in these inequalities. Recently, these inequalities have received renewed attention in the setting of binary cubes, driven by applications in additive combinatorics through works by Kane–Tao, de Dios Pont–Greenfeld–Ivanisvili–Madrid, and others. In this discrete setting, the sharp constant is known to be 1 and is no longer the central issue. Instead, the focus shifts to the range of exponents for which the Hausdorff–Young inequality and Young’s convolution inequality hold — a range that is enlarged compared to the classical case. In this talk, we aim to fully characterize this range. This is joint work with Tonći Crmarić (University of Split) and Vjekoslav Kovač (University of Zagreb).

Makiko SASADA (The University of Tokyo)
Scaling Limits of Interacting Particle Systems: From Gaussian Fields to KPZ Universality
[ Abstract ]
This talk explores the scaling limits of interacting particle systems with multiple conserved quantities. Starting from weakly asymmetric dynamics on a lattice, we characterize the evolution of fluctuation fields in the diffusive limit. We show how the interplay between different conserved modes leads to a transition from linear Gaussian fields to the KPZ (Kardar-Parisi-Zhang) universality class. Using the framework of Nonlinear Fluctuating Hydrodynamics, we discuss how the second-order nonlinearities in the macroscopic currents determine whether each mode exhibits diffusive or anomalous scaling. This talk is based on joint work with Hugo Da Cunha.

The introduction of cohomology theories into arithmetic geometry has its roots in the Weil conjectures and began with Grothendieck’s definition of étale cohomology in the 1960s. We will discuss several more recent developments, particularly those arising from collaborations between French and Japanese mathematicians, including motives with modulus, $p$-adic Simpson correspondences, and analogies with microlocal analysis.

Double quotients for symmetry breaking
[ Abstract ]
The orbit structure in flag varieties encodes branching laws for real reductive groups. In this talk, we describe a family of double quotients which arise naturally in the context of symmetry breaking for the general linear group.
These spaces generalize certain classical quotients, a fundamental example being the one associated with Gaussian elimination and the Bruhat decomposition. In this setting, double cosets are described using natural invariants inspired by the ranks of submatrices in the classical case.

Fast numerical solution to shallow water system at PC - application to tsunami simulation (English)
[ Abstract ]
To calculate the distribution of maximal tsunami wave heights along the shoreline immediately after the earthquake a number of algorithms have been developed. Due to the hardware acceleration (the use of FPGA - Field Programmable Gates Array - microchip) numerical solution to the shallow water system takes 1 minute with Personal Computer within 1000x600 km water area, grid step compared to 250 m.
It takes 25 min to compute wave propagation over the entire Pacific Ocean at 1 min grid. Using the advantages of FPGA architecture, values of wave parameters are calculated at 7 time layers at one computer clock. The propores technology could be applied for more problems in computational hydrodynamics.

Knot types of Lagrangian intersections and epimorphisms between knot groups (JAPANESE)
[ Abstract ]
Lagrangian intersections in symplectic manifolds have been studied from various perspectives. In recent years, several works have also investigated the knot types of Lagrangian intersections.
In this talk, we discuss a problem posed by Okamoto. Starting from a knot in the 3-dimensional Euclidean space, we move its conormal bundle in the cotangent bundle by a compactly supported Hamiltonian isotopy. When its intersection with the zero-section is connected and clean, it gives rise to another knot. We ask how the knot type of this new knot is related to that of the original one.
I will explain a new constraint on this problem obtained by using microlocal sheaf theory, in terms of the fundamental groups of knot complements. This talk is based on joint work with Yukihiro Okamoto (Tokyo Metropolitan University).

Symmetry Breaking and Geometric Analysis
[ Abstract ]
In this talk, I first give a brief overview of fundamental problems in the branching theory of infinite-dimensional representations, namely the study of restricted representations. I then discuss recent advances in this area and their applications to spectral analysis on locally symmetric spaces beyond the traditional Riemannian setting, with particular emphasis on joint work with French colleagues.

Classification of arithmetic twice-punctured torus groups (Japanese)
[ Abstract ]
A Fuchsian group is called arithmetic if it is commensurable with a Fuchsian group derived from a quaternion algebra. In this talk we will determine arithmetic twice-punctured torus groups; arithmetic once-punctured torus groups were already classified by Kisao Takeuchi. Our strategy is based on Takeuchi's approach to classify quadrilateral subgroups of the modular group. (“Subgroups of the modular group with signature (0 ; e1, e2, e3, e4)”（Saitama Math. Jour. Vol.14, 55—78, 1996).)

Towards a quantization of the Kirwan map via Fourier transform
[ Abstract ]
Quantum cohomology ring is a deformation of the ordinary cohomology ring defined using counts of rational curves (genus zero Gromov-Witten invariants). In this talk, I will propose a Fourier transform for the quantum cohomology of smooth projective GIT quotients, viewed as a quantum analogue of the Kirwan map in ordinary cohomology. I will present several examples where this Fourier transform can be constructed and discuss some applications. This talk is based on ongoing work.
