  • CMSA Math-Science Literature Lecture: Moment maps and the Yang-Mills functional

    Virtual

    Frances Kirwan (University of Oxford) Title: Moment maps and the Yang-Mills functional Abstract: In the early 1980s Michael Atiyah and Raoul Bott wrote two influential papers, ‘The Yang-Mills equations over Riemann surfaces’ and ‘The moment map and equivariant cohomology’, bringing together ideas ranging from algebraic and symplectic geometry through algebraic topology to mathematical physics and number theory. […]

  • Rank-Based Independence Testing in Near Linear Time

    Speaker: Chaim Even-Zohar (Alan Turing Institute, London) Title: Rank-Based Independence Testing in Near Linear Time Abstract: In 1948 Hoeffding proposed a nonparametric test that detects dependence between two continuous random variables (X,Y), based on the ranking of n paired samples (Xi,Yi). The computation of this commonly-used test statistic requires O(n log n) time. Hoeffding's test is consistent […]
