Colloquium Speaker:Â Elisenda Grigsby, Boston College Title: Local complexity measures in modern parameterized function classes for supervised learning Abstract: The parameter space for any fixed architecture of neural networks serves as a proxy during training for the associated class of functions - but how faithful is this representation? For any fixed feedforward ReLU network architecture, it […]
General Relativity Seminar Speaker: Oswaldo Vazquez, Northeastern University Title: Continuation of solutions of Einstein's equations Abstract: Klainerman-Rodnianski improved the continuation criterion for the solutions of Einstein's equations proved by Michael Anderson using Kirchoff-Sobolev type parametrix and geometric Littlewood-Paley theory. Using their technique but a new parametrix we prove a continuation condition in the context of […]

Geometry and Quantum Theory Seminar Speaker: Sunghyuk Park, Harvard CMSA Title: Skein traces and curve counting Abstract: Skein modules are vector space-valued invariants of 3-manifolds describing the space of line defects modulo skein relations (determined by a choice of a ribbon category). When the 3-manifold is S x I for some surface S, the skein […]

Quantum Field Theory and Physical Mathematics Seminar Speaker: Brian Williams, Boston University Title: Dolbeault Virasoro algebra and M5 branes Abstract: The worldvolume theory on a stack of M5 branes in M-theory is superconformal. We propose a conjecture that in the holomorphic twist of the theory on a stack of M5 branes an infinite-dimensional enhancement of […]

Member Seminar Speaker: Keyou Zeng Title: Scattering Amplitude from a Twistor Point of View Abstract: Scattering amplitude is a key quantity in quantum field theory. Although challenging to compute at higher loops and for large particle numbers, physicists have developed various tools to gain a deeper understanding of amplitudes. In this seminar, I will introduce […]
