Inverse problem for the Maxwell equations (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
We consider an analog of Caderon's problem for the system of Maxwell equations in a cylindrical domain.
Under some geometrical assumptions on domain we show that from the partial data one can recover the complete set of parameters.

Hiroo Tokunaga (Tokyo Metropolitan University)
Rational elliptic surfaces and certain line-conic arrangements (JAPANESE)
[ Abstract ]
Let S be a rational elliptic surface. The generic
fiber of S can be considered as an elliptic curve over
the rational function field of one variable. We can make
use of its group structure in order to cook up a curve C_2 on
S from a given section C_1.
In this talk, we consider certain line-conic arrangements of
degree 7 based on this method.

Huaxiong Huang (York University)
An immersed boundary method for mass transfer across permeable moving interfaces (ENGLISH)
Huaxiong Huang (York University)
An immersed boundary method for mass transfer across permeable moving interfaces (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
In this talk, we present an immersed boundary method for mass transfer across permeable deformable moving interfaces interacting with the surrounding fluids. One of the key features of our method is the introduction of the mass flux as an independent variable, governed by a non-standard vector transport equation. The flux equation, coupled with the mass transport and the fluid flow equations, allows for a natural implementation of an immersed boundary algorithm when the flux across the interfaces is proportional to the jump in concentration. As an example, the oxygen transfer from red blood cells in a capillary to its wall is used to illustrate the applicability of the proposed method. We show that our method is capable of handling multi-physics problems involving fluid- structure interaction with multiple deformable moving interfaces and (interfacial) mass transfer simultaneously.
This is joint work with X. Gong and Z. Gong.

Haruya MIZUTANI (Gakushuin University)
Global Strichartz estimates for Schr\\"odinger equations with long range metrics (JAPANESE)
[ Abstract ]
We consider Schr\\"odinger equations on the asymptotically Euclidean space
with the long-range condition on the metric.
We show that if the high energy resolvent has at most polynomial growth with respect to the energy,
then global-in-time Strichartz estimates, outside a large compact set, hold.
Under the non-trapping condition we also discuss global-in-space Strichartz estimates.
This talk is based on a joint work with J.-M. Bouclet (Toulouse University).

Minimal singular metrics of some line bundles with infinitely generated section rings (JAPANESE)
[ Abstract ]
We consider Hermitian metrics of pseudo-effective line bundles on smooth
projective varieties defined over $\\mathbb{C}$.
Especially we are interested in (possibly singular) Hermitian metrics
with semi-positive curvatures when the section rings are not finitely generated.
We study where and how minimal singular metrics, special Hermitian
metrics with semi-positive curvatures, diverges in the following two situations;
a line bundle admitting no Zariski decomposition even after any
modifications (Nakayama example)
and a nef line bundle $L$ on $X$ satisfying $D \\subset |mL|$ and $|mL-D|
= \\emptyset$ for some divisor $D \\subset X$ and for all $m \\geq 1$ (
Zariski example).

On the homotopy exact sequence for the logarithmic de Rham fundamental group (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
Let K be a field of characteristic 0 and let X* be a quasi-projective simple normal crossing log variety over the log point K* associated to K. We construct a log de Rham version of the homotopy sequence \\pi_1(X*/K*)-->\\pi_1(X*/K)--\\pi_1(K*/K)-->1 and prove that it is exact. Moreover we show the injectivity of the first map for certain quotients of the groups. Our proofs are purely algebraic. This is a joint work with A. Shiho.

Alexander Pushnitski (King's Colledge London)
Inverse spectral problem for positive Hankel operators (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
Hankel operators are given by (infinite) matrices with entries
$a_{n+m}$ in $\\ell^2$. We consider inverse spectral problem
for bounded self-adjoint positive Hankel operators.
A famous theorem due to Megretskii, Peller and Treil asserts
that such operators may have any continuous spectrum of
multiplicity one or two and any set of eigenvalues of multiplicity
one. However, more detailed questions of inverse spectral
problem, such as the description of isospectral sets, have never
been addressed. In this talk I will describe in detail the
direct and inverse spectral problem for a particular sub-class
of positive Hankel operators. The talk is based on joint work
with Patrick Gerard (Paris, Orsay).

Mauricio Romo (Kavli IPMU)
Exact Results In Two-Dimensional (2,2) Supersymmetric Gauge Theories With Boundary
(ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
I will talk about the recent computation, done in joint work with Prof. K. Hori, of the partition function on the hemisphere of a class of two-dimensional (2,2) supersymmetric field theories including gauged linear sigma models (GLSM). The result provides a general exact formula for the central charge of the D-branes placed at the boundary. From the mathematical point of view, for the case of GLSMs that admit a geometrical interpretation, this formula provides an expression for the central charge of objects in the derived category at any point of the stringy Kahler moduli space. I will describe how this formula arises from physics and give simple, yet important, examples that supports its validity. If time allows, I will also explain some of its consequences such as how it can be used to obtain the grade restriction rule for branes near phase boundaries.

Homological mirror symmetry of torus fibrations and some deformations (JAPANESE)
[ Abstract ]
We consider pairs of symplectic torus fibrations equipped with foliation structures and noncommutative deformations of complex torus fibrations as some deformations of the formulation of mirror symmetry via torus fibrations by Strominger-Yau-Zaslow. In order to assert that these pairs are mirror dual pairs, we consider homological mirror symmetry. Namely, we define deformations of Fukaya categories on symplectic torus fibrations and deformations of derived categories on complex torus fibrations, and discuss some equivalences between them. (What are known to hold true for non-deformed setting hold true, too, for the deformed setting. )

Singular limit of a damped wave equation with a bistable nonlinearity (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
We study the singular limit of a damped wave equation with
a bistable nonlinearity. In order to understand interfacial
phenomena, we derive estimates for the generation and the motion
of interfaces. We prove that steep interfaces are generated in
a short time and that their motion is governed by mean curvature
flow under the assumption that the damping is sufficiently strong.
To this purpose, we prove a comparison principle for the damped
wave equation and construct suitable sub- and super-solutions.
This is joint work with Mitsunori Nata.

Eigenvalue Constraints and Regularity of Q-tensor Navier-Stokes Dynamics (ENGLISH)
Mark Wilkinson (École normale supérieure - Paris)
Eigenvalue Constraints and Regularity of Q-tensor Navier-Stokes Dynamics (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
The Q-tensor is a traceless and symmetric 3x3 matrix that describes the small-scale structure in nematic liquid crystals. In order to be physically meaningful, its eigenvalues should be bounded below by -1/3 and above by 2/3. This constraint raises questions regarding the physical predictions of theories which employ the Q-tensor; it also raises analytical issues in both static and dynamic Q-tensor theories of nematic liquid crystals. John Ball and Apala Majumdar recently constructed a singular map on traceless, symmetric matrices that penalises unphysical Q-tensors by giving them an infinite energy cost. In this talk, I shall present some mathematical results for a coupled Navier-Stokes system modelling nematic dynamics into which this map is built, including the existence, regularity and so-called `strict physicality' of its weak solutions.

Goren-Oort stratification and Tate cycles on Hilbert modular varieties (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
Let B be a quaternionic algebra over a totally real field F, and p be a prime at least 3 unramified in F. We consider a Shimura variety X associated to B^* of level prime to p. A generalization of Deligne-Carayol's "modèle étrange" allows us to define an integral model for X. We will then define a Goren-Oort stratification on the characteristic p fiber of X, and show that each closed Goren-Oort stratum is an iterated P^1-fibration over another quaternionic Shimura variety in characteristic p. Now suppose that [F:Q] is even and that p is inert in F. An iteration of this construction gives rise to many algebraic cycles of middle codimension on the characteristic p fibre of Hilbert modular varieties of prime-to-p level. We show that the cohomological classes of these cycles generate a large subspace of the Tate cycles, which, in some special cases, coincides with the prediction of the Tate conjecture for the Hilbert modular variety over finite fields. This is a joint work with Liang Xiao.
