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:Communication Complexity of Randomness Manipulation
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Madhu Sudan (Harvard)\n\nTitle: Communication Complexity of Randomness Manipulation\n\nAbstract: The task of manipulating randomness has been a subject of intense investigation in the theory of computer science. The classical definition of this task consider a single processor massaging random samples from an unknown source and trying to convert it into a sequence of uniform independent bits.  In this talk I will talk about a less studied setting where randomness is distributed among different players who would like to convert this randomness to others forms with relatively little communication. For instance players may be given access to a source of biased correlated bits\, and their goal may be to get a common random bit out of this source. Even in the setting where the source is known this can lead to some interesting questions that have been explored since the 70s with striking constructions and some surprisingly hard questions. After giving some background\, I will describe a recent work which explores the task of extracting common randomness from correlated sources with bounds on the number of rounds of interaction. Based on joint works with Mitali Bafna (Harvard)\, Badih Ghazi (Google) and Noah Golowich (Harvard).
