• Existence of Canonical Metrics on Non-Kähler Geometry

    CMSA 20 Garden Street, Cambridge, MA, United States

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PPgLS5ehdV0 On Wednesday September 9, CMSA director Prof. Shing-Tung Yau gave a lecture for the Simons foundation on Existence of Canonical Metrics on Non-Kähler Geometry. In this lecture, Prof. Yau surveys the existence of canonical balanced metrics on non-Kähler complex manifolds through the Hull-Strominger system, which was motivated by string theory on compactifications. He discusses […]

  • Graph Representation Learning: Recent Advances and Open Challenges

    Virtual

    Speaker: William Hamilton, McGill University and MILA Title: Graph Representation Learning: Recent Advances and Open Challenges Abstract: Graph-structured data is ubiquitous throughout the natural and social sciences, from telecommunication networks to quantum chemistry. Building relational inductive biases into deep learning architectures is crucial if we want systems that can learn, reason, and generalize from this kind of […]
