Hiroshi Iritani (Kyoto University)
Toric mirror symmetry via shift operators (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
Recently, shift operator for equivariant quantum cohomology
has been introduced in the work of Braverman, Maulik, Okounkov and
Pandharipande. This can be viewed as an equivariant lift of the
Seidel representation, and intertwines quantum connections with
different equivariant parameters.
In this series of talks, I will explain that shift operators essentially
"reconstruct" mirrors of toric varieties. More precisely we obtain the
following from basic properties of shift operators:

1. Givental's mirror theorem.
2. Landau-Ginzburg potential and primitive form.
3. Extended I-functions.

We will also see that the Gamma integral structure arises as
a solution to the difference equation defined by shift operators.

Matthew Gursky (Univ. Nortre Dame) 9:00-9:50
Critical metrics for quadratic Riemannian functionals in dimension four (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
In these lectures I will give an overview of a proof of existence, via gluing methods, of metrics which are critical points of quadratic Riemannian functionals. This is a joint project with J. Viaclovsky.
These are functionals on the space of metrics which are given by integrals of quadratic polynomials in the curvature tensor. Our approach is to construct these metrics on connected sums of Einstein four-manifolds, specifically the Fubini-Study metric on CP2 and the product metric on S2 X S2. Using these metrics in various gluing configurations, toric-invariant critical metrics are found on connected sums for a specific quadratic functional, which depends on the global geometry of the factors.
I will also explain some recent work which attempts to understand the moduli space of critical metrics.

Hessian type equations on compact Kähler manifolds (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
I will discuss a priori estimates for a general class of nonlinear equations on compact Kähler manifolds. This unifies and generalizes several previous works on specific equations, such as the complex Monge-Ampère, Hessian, and inverse Hessian equations.

Andrei Pajitnov (Univ. de Nantes)
Arnold conjecture, Floer homology,
and augmentation ideals of finite groups.
(ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
Let H be a generic time-dependent 1-periodic
Hamiltonian on a closed weakly monotone
symplectic manifold M. We construct a refined version
of the Floer chain complex associated to (M,H),
and use it to obtain new lower bounds for the number P(H)
of the 1-periodic orbits of the corresponding hamiltonian
vector field. We prove in particular that
if the fundamental group of M is finite
and solvable or simple, then P(H)
is not less than the minimal number
of generators of the fundamental group.

This is joint work with Kaoru Ono.

Skein algebra and mapping class group (JAPANESE)
[ Abstract ]
We define some filtrations of skein modules and the skein algebra on an oriented surface, and define the completed skein modules and
the completed skein algebra of the surface with respect to these filtration. We give an explicit formula for the action of the Dehn
twists on the completed skein modules in terms of the action of the completed skein algebra of the surface. As an application, we describe the action of the Johnson kernel on the completed skein modules.

An extension of the LMO functor (JAPANESE)
[ Abstract ]
Cheptea, Habiro and Massuyeau introduced the LMO functor as an extension of the LMO invariant of closed 3-manifolds. The LMO functor is “the monoidal category of Lagrangian cobordisms between surfaces with at most one boundary component” to “the monoidal category of top-substantial Jacobi diagrams”. In this talk, we extend the LMO functor to the case of any number of boundary components. Moreover, we explain that the internal degree d part of the extension is a finite-type invariant of degree d.

Wild ramification and $K(\pi, 1)$ spaces (English)
[ Abstract ]
A smooth variety in characteristic zero is Zariski-locally a $K(\pi,1)$ space, i.e., has trivial higher homotopy groups. This fact is of crucial importance in Artin's proof that $\ell$-adic cohomology agrees with singular cohomology over $\mathbb{C}$. The characteristic $p$ variant of this is not known --- we do not even know whether the affine plane is a $K(\pi, 1)$ in positive characteristic! I will show how to reduce this question to a ``Bertini-type’' statement regarding wild ramification of $\ell$-adic local systems on affine spaces, which might be of independent interest. I will verify this statement in the special case of local systems of rank $1$ and speculate on how one might treat the general case.

Precise and fast computation of elliptic integrals and elliptic functions (日本語)
[ Abstract ]
Summarized is the recent progress of the methods to compute (i) Legendre's normal form complete elliptic integrals of all three kinds, $K(m)$, $E(m)$, and $\Pi(n|m)$, (ii) Legendre's normal form incomplete elliptic integrals of all three kinds, $F(\phi|m)$, $E(\phi|m)$, and $\Pi(\phi,n|m)$, (iii) Jacobian elliptic functions, $\mathrm{sn}(u|m)$, $\mathrm{cn}(u|m)$, $\mathrm{dn}(u|m)$, and $\mathrm{am}(u|m)$, (iv) the inverse functions of $K(m)$ and $E(m)$, $m_K(K)$ and $m_E(E)$, (v) the inverse of a general incomplete elliptic integral in Jacobi's form, $G(\mathrm{am}(u|m),n|m)$, with respect to $u$, and (vi) the partial derivatives of $\mathrm{sn}(u|m)$, $\mathrm{cn}(u|m)$, $dn(u|m)$, $E(\mathrm{am}(u|m)|m)$, and $\Pi(\mathrm{am}(u|m),n|m)$ with respect to $u$ and those of $F(\phi|m)$, $E(\phi|m)$, and $\Pi(\phi,n|m)$ with respect to $\phi$. In order to avoid the information loss when $n\ll 1$ and/or $m \ll 1$, focused are the associate incomplete elliptc integrals defined as $B(\phi|m)=[E(\phi|m)-(1-m)F(\phi|m)]/m$, $D(\phi|m)=[F(\phi|m)-E(\phi|m)]/m$, and $J(\phi,n|m)=[\Pi(\phi,n|m)-F(\phi|m)]/n$, and their complete versions, $B(m)=[E(m)-(1-m)K(m)]/m$, $D(m)=[K(m)-E(m)]/m$, and $J(n|m)=[\Pi(n|m)-K(m)]/n$. The main techniques used are (i) the piecewise approximation for single variable functions as $K(m)$, and (ii) the combination of repeated usage of the half and double argument transformations and the truncated Maclaurin series expansions with respect to $u = F(\phi|m)$. The new methods are of the full double precision accuracy without any chance of cancellation against small input arguments. They run significantly faster than the existing methods: (i) 2.5 times faster than Cody's Chebyshev polynomial approximations for $K(m)$ and $E(m)$, (ii) 2.5 times faster than Bulirsch's cel for $\Pi(n|m)$, (iii) slightly faster than Bulirsch's el1 for $F(\phi|m)$, (iv) 3.5 times faster than Carlson's $R_D$ for $E(\phi|m)$, (v) 3.5 times faster than Carlson's $R_C$, $R_D$, $R_F$, and $R_J$ for $\Pi(\phi,n|m)$, and (vi) 1.5 times faster than Bulirsch's \texttt{sncndn} for $\mathrm{sn}(u|m)$, $\mathrm{cn}(u|m)$, and $\mathrm{dn}(u|m)$.

Zero-intelligence modelling of limit order books
[ Abstract ]
Limit order books (LOB) are at the core of electronic financial markets.
A LOB centralizes all orders of all market participants on a given
exchange, matching buy and sell orders of all types.

In a first part, we observe that a LOB is a queueing system and that
this analogy is fruitful to derive stationary properties of these
structures. Using a basic Poisson model, we compute analytical formulas
for the average shape of the LOB. Our model allows for non-unit size of
limit orders, leading to new predictions on the granularity of financial
markets that turn out to be empirically valid.

In a second part, we study the LOB during the call auction, a market
design often used during the opening and closing phases of the trading
day. We show that in a basic Poisson model of the call auction, the
distributions for the traded volume and the range of clearing prices are
analytically computable. In the case of a liquid market, we derive weak
limits of these distributions and test them empirically.
