SUMMARY:Spacetime and quantum mechanics\, total positivity and motives
DESCRIPTION:Recent developments have poised this area to make serious advances in 2019\, and we feel that bringing together many of the relevant experts for an intensive semester of discussions and collaboration will trigger some great things to happen. To this end\, the organizers will host a small workshop during Fall 2019\, with between 20-30 participants. They will also invite 10-20 longer-term visitors throughout the semester. Additionally\, there will be a seminar held weekly on Thursdays at 2:30pm in CMSA G10. \nOrganizers: \n\nNima Arkani-Hamed (IAS)\nLauren Williams (Harvard)\nAlexander Postnikov (MIT)\nThomas Lam (Michigan)\n\n. \nWorkshops: \n \n  \nSpacetime and Quantum Mechanics Workshop\, October 28-30\, 2019\n\n\nHere is a partial list of the mathematicians and physicists who have indicated that they will attend part or all of this special program as a visitor: \n\nPaolo Benincasa\, 11/17/2019 – 11/29/2019\nJacob Bourjaily\, 9/1/2019 – 12/15/2019\nFrancis Brown\, 9/15/2019 – 9/20/2019\nSimon Caron-Huot\, 9/30/2019 – 10/04/2019\nLance Dixon\, 9/9/2019 – 9/20/2019\nCharles Doran\, 10/19/2019 – 11/1/2019\nJames Drummond\, 10/14/2019 – 10/18/2019\nNick Early\, 11/18/2019 – 11/22/2019\nLivia Ferro\, 10/27/2019 – 11/9/2019\nSergey Fomin\, 10/6/2019 – 10/16/2019\nSebastian Franco\, 10/9/2019 – 10/19/2019\nHadleigh Frost\, 9/15/2019 – 12/20/2019\nMichael Green\, 10/05/2019 – 10/13/2019\nAlexander Goncharov\, 12/05/2019 – 12/20/2019\nSong He\, 9/29/2019 – 11/10/2019\nXuhua He\, 10/30/2019-11/03/2019\nEnrico Herrmann\, 10/27/2019 – 11/9/2019\nYutin Huang\, 9/30/2019 – 10/12/2019\nSteven Karp\, 10/11/2019 – 11/03/2019\nTomasz Lukowski\, 10/27/2019 – 11/11/2019\nAndrew McLeod\, 10/6/2019 – 10/19/2019 & 11/3/2019 – 11/16/2019\nSebastian Mizera\, 10/28/2019 – 11/1/2019\nErik Panzer\, 9/15/2019 – 9/25/2019\nMatteo Parisi\, 10/26/2019 – 11/10/2019\nJulio Parra-Martinez\, 10/10/2019 – 05/12/2019\n Pierpaolo Mastrolia\, 11/8/2019 – 11/16/2019\nPasha Pylyavskyy\, 9/8/2019 – 9/22/2019 & 10/14/2019 – 11/1/2019\nJunjie Rao\, 10/25/2019 – 11/04/2019\nGiulio Salvatori\, 9/3/2019 – 12/15/2019\nMichael Shapiro\, 10/27/2019 – 11/2/2019\nDavid Speyer\, 10/14/2019 – 10/18/2019\nHugh Thomas\, 10/27/2019 – 11/22/2019\nJaroslav Trnka\, 9/30/2019 – 10/04/2019\, 10/28/2019 – 11/01/2019\, 11/18/2019 – 11/22/2019\nCristian Vergu\, 11/10/2019 – 11/30/2019\nMatthias Volk\, 10/14/2019 – 10/25/2019\nMatthew von Hippel\, 11/11/2019 – 11/22/2019\nPierre Vanhove\, 10/22/2019 – 10/31/2019\nMatthias Wilhelm\, 10/14/2019 – 10/25/2019

SUMMARY:A taste of noncommutative convex algebraic geometry
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Bill Helton (UC San Diego)\n\nTitle:  A taste of noncommutative convex algebraic geometry\n\nAbstract: The last decade has seen the development of a substantial noncommutative (in a free algebra) real and complex algebraic geometry. The aim of the subject is to develop a systematic theory of equations and inequalities for (noncommutative) polynomials or rational functions of matrix variables. Such issues occur in linear systems engineering problems\, in free probability (random matrices)\, and in quantum information theory. In many ways the noncommutative (NC) theory is much cleaner than classical (real) algebraic geometry. For example\,\n\n◦ A NC polynomial\, whose value is positive semidefinite whenever you plug matrices into it\, is a sum of squares of NC polynomials.\n◦ A convex NC semialgebraic set has a linear matrix inequality representation.\n◦ The natural Nullstellensatz are falling into place.\n\n The goal of the talk is to give a taste of a few basic results and some idea of how these noncommutative problems occur in engineering. The subject is just beginning and so is accessible without much background. Much of the work is joint with Igor Klep who is also visiting CMSA for the Fall of 2019.
