Logarithmic good reduction and the index (TBA)
[ Abstract ]
A proper smooth variety over a complete discrete valuation field is said to have (log) good reduction if it admits a proper (log) smooth model over the valuation ring (the log structure is given by the closed fiber). Monodromy criteria for good reduction and log good reduction have been studied. We study the log case by additional other conditions on geometric invariants such as the index of the variety (the minimal positive degree of a 0-cycle). In particular, we obtain a criterion for log good reduction of curves of genus one.

The regularity of area minimizing currents modulo $p$ (English)
[ Abstract ]
The theory of integer rectifiable currents was introduced by Federer and Fleming in the early 1960s in order to provide a class of generalized surfaces where the classical Plateau problem could be solved by direct methods. Since then, a number of alternative spaces of surfaces have been developed in geometric measure theory, as required for theory and applications. In particular, Fleming introduced currents modulo $2$ to treat non-orientable surfaces, and currents modulo $p$ (where $p \geq 2$ is an integer) to study more general surfaces occurring as soap films.
It is easy to see that, in general, area minimizing currents modulo $p$ need not be smooth surfaces. In this talk, I will sketch the proof of the following result, which achieves the best possible estimate for the Hausdorff dimension of the singular set of an area minimizing current modulo $p$ in the most general hypotheses, thus answering a question of White from the 1980s: if $T$ is an area minimizing current modulo $p$ of dimension $m$ in $R^{m+n}$, then $T$ is smooth at all its interior points, except those belonging to a singular set of Hausdorff dimension at most $m-1$.

Minimizing CM degree and slope stability of projective varieties (JAPANESE)
[ Abstract ]
Chow-Mumford (CM) line bundle is considered to play an important role in moduli problem for K-stable Fano varieties. In this talk, we consider a minimization problem of the degree of the CM line bundle among all possible fillings of a polarized family over a punctured curve. We show that such minimization implies the slope semistability of the fiber if the central fiber is smooth.

Construction of solutions to Schrodinger equations with sub-quadratic potential via wave packet transform (Japanese)
[ Abstract ]
In this talk, we consider linear Schrodinger equations with sub-quadratic potentials, which can be transformed by the wave packet transform with time dependent wave packet to a PDE of first order with inhomogeneous terms including unknown function and second derivatives of the potential. If the second derivatives of the potentials are bounded, the homogenous term of the first oder equation gives a construction of solutions to Schrodinger equations with sub-quadratic potentials by the similar way as in D. Fujiwara's work for Feynman path integral. We will show numerical computations by using our construction, if we have enough time.

POLAR TRANSFORM AND LOCAL POSITIVITY FOR CURVES
(ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
Using the duality of positive cones, we show that applying the polar transform from convexanalysis to local positivity invariants for divisors gives interesting and new local positivity invariantsfor curves. These new invariants have nice properties similar to those for divisors. In particular, thisenables us to give a characterization of the divisorial components of the non-K¨ahler locus of a big class. This is joint worth with Jian Xiao.

p-adic Gelfand-Kapranov-Zelevinsky systems (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
Using Dwork's trace formula, we express the exponential sum associated to a Laurent polynomial as the trace of a chain map on a twisted de Rham complex for the torus over the p-adic field. Treating the coefficients of the polynomial as parameters, we obtain the p-adic Gelfand-Kapranov-Zelevinsky (GKZ) system, which is a complex of D^\dagger-modules with Frobenius structure.

Generalized Dehn twists on surfaces and homology cylinders (JAPANESE)
[ Abstract ]
This is a joint work with Gwénaël Massuyeau (University of Burgundy). Lickorish's trick describes Dehn twists along simple closed curves on an oriented surface in terms of surgery of 3-manifolds. We discuss one possible generalization of this description to the situation where the curve under consideration may have self-intersections. Our result generalizes previously known computations related to the Johnson homomorphisms for the mapping class groups and for homology cylinders. In particular, we obtain an alternative and direct proof of the surjectivity of the Johnson homomorphisms for homology cylinders, which was proved by Garoufalidis-Levine and Habegger.

Formal groups and p-adic dynamical systems (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
A formal group gives rise to a p-adic dynamical system. I will discuss some results about formal groups that can be proved using this point of view. I will also discuss the theory of p-adic dynamical systems and some open questions.

On property (T) for $\mathrm{Aut}(F_n)$ and $\mathrm{SL}_n(\mathbb{Z})$ (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
We prove that $\mathrm{Aut}(F_n)$ has Kazhdan's property (T) for every $n \ge 6$. Together with a previous result of Kaluba, Nowak, and Ozawa, this gives the same statement for $n \ge 5$. We also provide explicit lower bounds for the Kazhdan constants of $\mathrm{SAut}(F_n)$ (with $n \ge 6$) and of $\mathrm{SL}_n(\mathbb{Z})$ (with $n \ge 3$) with respect to natural generating sets. In the latter case, these bounds improve upon previously known lower bounds whenever $n >6$.

Modified scattering for nonlinear dispersive equations with critical non-polynomial nonlinearities (Japanese)
[ Abstract ]
In this talk, I will introduce resent progress on modified scattering for Schrodinger equation and Klein-Gordon equation with a non-polynomial nonlinearity. We use Fourier series expansion technique to find the resonant part of the nonlinearity which produces phase correction factor.

Q-operators for generalised eight vertex models associated
to the higher spin representations of the Sklyanin algebra. (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
The Q-operator was first introduced by Baxter in 1972 as a
tool to solve the eight vertex model and recently attracts
attention from the representation theoretical viewpoint. In
this talk, we show that Baxter's apparently quite ad hoc and
technical construction can be generalised to the model
associated to the higher spin representations of the
Sklyanin algebra. If everybody in the audience understands Japanese, the talk
will be in Japanese.

Degenerations of p-adic volume forms (English)
[ Abstract ]
Let X be an n-dimensional smooth projective variety over a non-Archimedean local field K. Also fix a regular n-form on X. This data induces a positive measure on the space of K'-rational points for any finite extension K' of K. We describe the asymptotics, as K' runs through towers of finite extensions of K, in terms of Berkovich analytic geometry. This is joint work with Johannes Nicaise.

Johnson-type homomorphisms and the LMO functor (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
One of the main objects associated to a surface S is the mapping class group MCG(S). This group plays an important role in the study of 3-manifolds. Reciprocally, the topological invariants of 3-manifolds can be used to obtain interesting representations of MCG(S).

One possible approach to the study of MCG(S) is to consider its action on the fundamental group P of the surface or on some subgroups of P. This way, we can obtain some kind of filtrations of MCG(S) and homomorphisms, called Johnson type homomorphisms, which take values in certain spaces of diagrams. These spaces of diagrams are quotients of the target space of the LMO functor. Hence it is natural to ask what is the relation between the Johnson type homomorphisms and the LMO functor. The answer is well known in the case of the Torelli group and the usual Johnson homomorphisms. In this talk we consider two other different filtrations of MCG(S) introduced by Levine and Habiro-Massuyeau. We show that the respective Johnson homomorphisms can also be deduced from the LMO functor.

Cohomology vanishing for automorphic vector bundles (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
A Shimura variety carries naturally a family of vector bundles parametrized by the characters of a maximal torus in the attached group. We want to determine which of these vector bundles are ample, and also show cohomology vanishing results. For this we use generalized Hasse invariants on the stack of G-zips of Moonen-Pink-Wedhorn-Ziegler. It is a group-theoretical counterpart of the Shimura variety and carries a similar family of vector bundles. This is joint work with Y.Brunebarbe, W.Goldring and B.Stroh.

Dynamics of singular vortex patches (English)
[ Abstract ]
Vortex patches are solutions to the 2D Euler equations that are given by the characteristic function of a bounded domain that moves with time. It is well-known that if initially the boundary of the domain is smooth, the boundary remains smooth for all time. On the other hand, we consider patches with corner singularities. It turns out that, depending on whether the initial patch satisfies an appropriate rotational symmetry condition or not, the corner structure may propagate for all time or lost immediately. In the rotationally symmetric case, we are able to construct patches with interesting dynamical behavior as time goes to infinity. When the symmetry is absent, we present a simple yet formal evolution equation which describes the dynamics of the boundary. It suggests that the angle cusps instantaneously for $t > 0$.
This is joint work with Tarek Elgindi.

Discrete G-spectra and a model for the K(n)-local stable homotopy category (JAPANESE)
[ Abstract ]
The K(n)-local stable homotopy categories are building blocks for the stable homotopy category of spectra. In this talk I will construct a model for the K(n)-local stable homotopy category, which explicitly shows the relationship with the Morava E-theory E_n and the stabilizer group G_n. We consider discrete symmetric G-spectra studied by Behrens-Davis for a profinite group G. I will show that the K(n)-local stable homotopy category is realized in the homotopy category of modules in discrete symmetric G_n-spectra over a discrete model of E_n.
