SUMMARY:Cohomologies on almost complex manifolds and their applications 
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Spiro Karigiannis (University of Waterloo)\n\n\nTitle: Cohomologies on almost complex manifolds and their applications\n\nAbstract: We define three cohomologies on an almost complex manifold (M\, J)\, defined using the Nijenhuis-Lie derivations induced from the almost complex structure J and its Nijenhuis tensor N\, regarded as vector-valued forms on M. One of these can be applied to distinguish non-isomorphic non-integrable almost complex structures on M. Another one\, the J-cohomology\, is familiar in the integrable case but we extend its definition and applicability to the case of non-integrable almost complex structures. The J-cohomology encodes whether a complex manifold satisfies the “del-delbar-lemma”\, and more generally in the non-integrable case the J-cohomology encodes whether (M\, J) satisfies a generalization of this lemma. We also mention some other potential cohomologies on almost complex manifolds\, related to an interesting question involving the Nijenhuis tensor. This is joint work with Ki Fung Chan and Chi Cheuk Tsang.

SUMMARY:Double affine Hecke algebras
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Pavel Etingof (MIT)\n\nTitle:  Double affine Hecke algebras\n\nAbstract: Double affine Hecke algebras (DAHAs) were introduced by I. Cherednik in the early 1990s to prove Macdonald’s conjectures. A DAHA is the quotient of the group algebra of the elliptic braid group attached to a root system by Hecke relations. DAHAs and their degenerations are now central objects of representation theory. They also have numerous connections to many other fields — integrable systems\, quantum groups\, knot theory\, algebraic geometry\, combinatorics\, and others. In my talk\, I will discuss the basic properties of double affine Hecke algebras and touch upon some applications.\n\n\n\n  \n

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.

SUMMARY:Spacetime and Quantum Mechanics Seminar
DESCRIPTION:As part of the program on Spacetime and Quantum Mechanics\, the CMSA will be hosting a weekly seminar on Thursdays at 2:30pm in room G10. \n\n\n\nDate\nSpeaker\nTitle/Abstract\n\n\n9/12/2019\nPasha Pylyavskyy (University of Minnesota)\nTitle: Vector-relation configurations and plabic graphs\n\n\n19/18/2019 \n2:00pm \nG02\nFrancis Brown (University of Oxford)\nTitle: Amplitudes\, Polylogs and Moduli Spaces\n\n\n9/19/2019\nChuck Doran (University of Alberta)\nTitle: Calabi-Yau geometry of the N-loop sunset Feynman integrals \nAbstract: I will present an overview of the algebraic and transcendental features of the computation of N-loop sunset Feynman integrals. \nStarting from the realization of arbitrary Feynman graph hypersurfaces as (generalized) determinantal varieties\, we describe the Calabi-Yau subvarieties of permutohedral varieties that arise from the N-loop sunset Feynman graphs and some key features of their geometry and moduli. \nThese include: (1) an iterated fibration structure which allows one to “bootstrap” both periods and Picard-Fuchs equations from lower N cases; (2) specialization to and interpretation of coincident mass loci (“jump loci”) in moduli; (3) a significant generalization of the Griffiths-Dwork algorithm via “creative telescoping”; and (4) the realization of Calabi-Yau pencils as Landau-Ginzburg models mirror to weak Fano varieties. \nDetails of each of these will be discussed in later lectures this semester. This is joint work with Pierre Vanhove and Andrey Novoseltsev.\n\n\n9/26/2019\nTomasz Taylor (Northeastern)\nTitle: Celestial Amplitudes\n\n\n10/3/2019\nSimon Caron-Huot (McGill)\nTitle: Poincare Duals of Feynman Integrals\n\n\n10/10/2019 \n3:30pm\nYutin Huang (National Taiwan University)\nTitle: Dualities of Planar Ising Networks and the Positive Orthogonal Grassmannian\n\n\n10/15/2019 \nTuesday \n3:30pm\n  \nSergey Fomin (Univ. of Michigan) \n \nTitle: “Morsifications and mutations” (joint work with P.

We describe ways to get BCJ numerators\, and caution that the BCJ Jacobi property doesn’t imply the existence of what has been called a ‘kinematic algebra.’\n\n\n 12/5/2019\nDavid Kosower (IAS)\nTitle: From scattering amplitudes to classical observables\n\n\n12/10/2019\nRamis Movassagh (MIT)\nTitle: Highly entangled quantum spin chains: Exactly solvable counter-examples to the area law \nAbstract: In recent years\, there has been a surge of activities in proposing “exactly solvable” quantum spin chains with surprising high amount of ground state entanglement–exponentially more than the critical systems that have $\log(n)$ von Neumann entropy. We discuss these models from first principles. For a spin chain of length $n$\, we prove that the ground state entanglement entropy scales as $\sqrt(n)$ and in some cases even extensive (i.e.\, as $n$) despite the underlying Hamiltonian being: (1) Local (2) Having a unique ground state and (3) Translationally invariant in the bulk. These models have rich connections with combinatorics\, random walks\, Markov chains\, and universality of Brownian excursions. Lastly\, we develop techniques for proving the gap. As a consequence\, the gap of Motzkin and Fredkin spin chains are proved to vanish as 1/n^c with c>2; this rules out the possibility of these models to be relativistic conformal field theories in the continuum limit. Time permitting we will discuss more recent developments in this direction and ‘generic’ aspects of local spin chains.

SUMMARY:Topology and Dynamics in Quantum Matter Workshop
DESCRIPTION:On September 10-11\, 2019\, the CMSA  hosted a second workshop on Topological Aspects of Condensed Matter. \nNew ideas rooted in topology have recently had a major impact on condensed matter physics\, and have led to new connections with high energy physics\, mathematics and quantum information theory.  The aim of this program will be to deepen these connections and spark new progress by fostering discussion and new collaborations within and across disciplines. \nTopics include i) the classification of topological states  ii) topological orders in two and three dimensions including quantum spin liquids\, quantum Hall states and fracton phases and iii)  interplay of symmetry and topology in quantum many body systems\, including symmetry protected topological phases\, symmetry fractionalization and anomalies iv) topological phenomena in quantum systems  driven far from equlibrium v) quantum field theory approaches to topological matter. \nThis workshop is part of the CMSA’s program on Program on Topological Aspects of Condensed Matter\, and is the second of two workshops\, in addition to a visitor program and seminars. \nThe workshop was held in room G10 of the CMSA\, located at 20 Garden Street\, Cambridge\, MA. \nOrganizers: Michael Hermele (CU Boulder) and Ashvin Vishwanath (Harvard) \nPartial list of speakers:\n\nNima Arkani-Hamed\, IAS\nJennifer Cano\, Stony Brook\nMeng Cheng\, Yale\nLukasz Fidkowski\, UW Seattle\nDaniel Freed\, Texas\nJeongwan Haah\, Microsoft Research\nAnton Kapustin\, Caltech\nZohar Komargodski\, SCGP/Stony Brook\nJohn McGreevy\, UC San Diego\nPrineha Narang\, Harvard\nYing Ran\, Boston College\nShinsei Ryu\, Chicago\nCumrun Vafa\, Harvard\nChong Wang\, Perimeter\nZhenghan Wang\, Microsoft Station Q\n\n
