Xiaolong Li (The University of Tokyo)
Weak eigenvalues in homoclinic classes: perturbations from saddles
with small angles (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
For 3-dimensional homoclinic classes of saddles with index 2, a
new sufficient condition for creating weak contracting eigenvalues is
provided. Our perturbation makes use of small angles between stable and
unstable subspaces of saddles. In particular, by recovering the unstable
eigenvector, we can designate that the newly created weak eigenvalue is
contracting. As applications, we obtain C^1-generic non-trivial index-
intervals of homoclinic classes and the C^1-approximation of robust
heterodimensional cycles. In particular, this sufficient condition is
satisfied by a substantial class of saddles with homoclinic tangencies.

Victor Isakov (The Wichita State University)
Increasing stability in the inverse problems for the Helmholtz type prposed equations (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
We report on new stability estimates for recovery of the near field from the prposed scattering amplitude prposed and for Schroedinger potential from the Dirichlet-to Neumann map. In these prposed esrtimates prposed unstable (logarithmic part) goes to zero as the wave number grows. Proofs prposed are using prposed new bounds for Hankel functions and complex and real geometrical optics prposed solutions.

Taro Sano (University of Warwick)
Deforming elephants of Q-Fano 3-folds (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
Shokurov and Reid proved that a Fano 3-fold with canonical
Gorenstein singularities has a Du Val elephant, that is,
a member of the anticanonical linear system with only Du Val singularities.
The classification of Fano 3-folds is based on this fact.
However, for a Fano 3-fold with non-Gorenstein terminal singularities,
the anticanonical system does not contain such a member in general.
Alt{\\i}nok--Brown--Reid conjectured that, if the anticanonical system is non-empty,
a Q-Fano 3-fold can be deformed to that with a Du Val elephant.
In this talk, I will explain how to deform an elephant with isolated
singularities to a Du Val elephant.

Rinat Kashaev (University of Geneva)
Lectures on quantum Teichmüller theory IV (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
Quantum Teichmüller theory leads to a family of unitary infinite dimensional projective representations of the mapping class groups of punctured surfaces. One of the recent applications of this theory is the construction of state integral three-manifold invariants related with hyperbolic geometry.
In these lectures it is planned to address the following subjects:
1) Penner’s coordinates in the decorated Teichmüller space.
2) Ratio coordinates.
3) Quantization.
4) The length spectrum of simple closed curves.

Increasing stability of the continuation for the Helmholtz type equations (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
We derive conditional stability estimates for the Helmholtz type equations which are becoming of Lipschitz type for large frequencies/wave numbers. Proofs use splitting solutions into low and high frequencies parts where we use energy (in particular) Carleman estimates. We discuss numerical confirmation and open problems.

Jin Cheng (Fudan University)
A numerical method for solving the inverse heat conduction problem without initial value (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
In this talk, we will present some results for the inverse heat conduction problem for the heat equation of determining a boundary value at in an unreachable part of the boundary. The main difficulty for this problem is that the initial value is unknown by the practical reason. A new method is prposed to solve this problem and the nuemrical tests show the effective of this method. Some theoretic analysis will be presented. This is a joint work with J Nakagawa, YB Wang, M Yamamoto.

Number Theory Seminar

Special values of zeta-functions of schemes (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
We will give conjectured formulas giving the behavior of the
seta-function of regular schemes projective and flat over Spec Z at
non-positive integers in terms of Weil-etale cohomology. We will also
explain the conjectured relationship of Weil-etale cohomology to etale
cohomology, which makes it possible to express these formulas also in terms
of etale cohomology.

Rinat Kashaev (University of Geneva)
State-integral partition functions on shaped triangulations (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
Quantum Teichm\\"uller theory can be promoted to a
generalized TQFT within the combinatorial framework of shaped
triangulations with the tetrahedral weight functions given in
terms of the Weil-Gelfand-Zak transformation of Faddeev.FN"s
quantum dilogarithm. By using simple examples, I will
illustrate the connection of this theory with the hyperbolic
geometry in three dimensions.

Tuesday Seminar of Analysis

Kenichi Ito (University of Tsukuba)
Threshold properties for one-dimensional discrete Schr\\"odinger operators (JAPANESE)
[ Abstract ]
We study the relation between the generalized eigenspace and the asymptotic expansion of the resolvent around the threshold $0$ for the one-dimensional discrete Schr\\"odinger operator on $\\mathbb Z$. We decompose the generalized eigenspace into the subspaces corresponding to the eigenstates and the resonance states only by their asymptotics at infinity, and classify the coefficient operators of the singlar part of resolvent expansion completely in terms of these eigenspaces. Here the generalized eigenspace we consider is largest possible. For an explicit computation of the resolvent expansion we apply the expansion scheme of Jensen-Nenciu (2001). This talk is based on the recent joint work with Arne Jensen (Aalborg University).

Lie Groups and Representation Theory

16:30-18:00   Room #126 (Graduate School of Math. Sci. Bldg.)
Masaki Mori (the University of Tokyo)
A cellular classification of simple modules of the Hecke-Clifford
superalgebra (JAPANESE)
[ Abstract ]
The Hecke--Clifford superalgebra is a super version of
the Iwahori--Hecke algebra of type A. Its simple modules
are classified by Brundan, Kleshchev and Tsuchioka using
a method of categorification of affine Lie algebras.
However their constructions are too abstract to study in practice.
In this talk, we introduce a more concrete way to produce its
simple modules with a generalized theory of cellular algebras
which is originally developed by Graham and Lehrer.
In our construction the key is that there is a right action of
the Clifford superalgebra on the super-analogue of the Specht module.
With the help of the notion of the Morita context, a simple module
of the Hecke--Clifford superalgebra is made from that of
the Clifford superalgebra.

Roots of the discriminant of an elliptic curves and its torsion points (JAPANESE)
[ Abstract ]
We give an explicit and intrinsic description of (the torsor defined by the 12th roots of) the discriminant of an elliptic curve using the group of its 12-torsion points and the Weil pairing. As an application, we extend a result of Coates (which deals with the characteristic 0 case) to the case where the characteristic of the base field is not 2 or 3. This is a joint work with Kohei Fukuda.

Tirasan Khandhawit (Kavli IPMU)
Stable homotopy type for monopole Floer homology (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
In this talk, I will try to give an overview of the
construction of stable homotopy type for monopole Floer homology. The
construction associates a stable homotopy object to 3-manifolds, which
will recover the Floer groups by appropriate homology theory. The main
ingredients are finite dimensional approximation technique and Conley
index theory. In addition, I will demonstrate construction for certain
3-manifolds such as the 3-torus.

Lectures

Guanghui Hu (WIAS, Germany)
Inverse elastic wave scattering from rigid diffraction gratings (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
In recent years, Schwarz reflection principles have been used to prove uniqueness in inverse scattering by bounded obstacles and unbounded periodic structures of polygonal or polyhedral type with only one or several incident plane waves.
Such a principle for the Navier equation is established by far only underthe third or fourth kind boundary conditions, and still remains unknown in the more practical case of the Dirichlet boundary condition.
In this talk we will discuss the uniqueness in inverse elastic scattering from rigid diffraction gratings of polygonal type, where the total displacement vanishes on the scattering surface. Mathematically, this can be modeled by the Dirichlet boundary value problem for the Navier equation in periodic structures. We prove that such diffraction gratings can be uniquely
determined from the near-field data corresponding to a finite number of incident elastic plane waves.
This is a joint work with J. Elschner and M. Yamamoto.
