Member Seminar Speaker: Michael Douglas Title: Knowledge Graph Embeddings and Inference Abstract: A knowledge graph (KG) is a data structure which represents entities and relations as the vertices and edges of […]
Title: On counting algebraically defined graphs Abstract: For many classes of graphs that arise naturally in discrete geometry (for example intersection graphs of segments or disks in the plane), the edges of […]
Abstract: For a given two-term complex of vector bundles on a derived scheme (or stack), there are three natural ways to define its “derived projectivizations”: (i) as the derived base-change of […]
Abstract: In geometry and physics it has proved useful to relate G2 and Calabi-Yau geometry via circle bundles. Contact Calabi-Yau 7-manifolds are, in the simplest cases, such circle bundles over Calabi-Yau 3-orbifolds. […]
Speaker: Alexei Oblomkov (University of Massachusetts) Title: Knot homology and sheaves on the Hilbert scheme of points on the plane Abstract: The knot homology (defined by Khovavov, Rozansky) provide us […]
https://youtu.be/4wHwqYrCqVQ Speaker: Marijn Heule, Carnegie Mellon University Title: Computer-Aided Mathematics and Satisfiability Abstract: Progress in satisfiability (SAT) solving has made it possible to determine the correctness of complex systems and […]
Speaker: Ian Gemp, DeepMind Title: D3C: Reducing the Price of Anarchy in Multi-Agent Learning Abstract: In multi-agent systems the complex interaction of fixed incentives can lead agents to outcomes that are poor […]
Abstract: Interacting particle models are often employed to gain understanding of the emergence of macroscopic phenomena from microscopic laws of nature. These individual-based models capture fine details, including randomness and […]
Abstract: The Dirac equation is a relativistic equation that describes the spin-1/2 particles. We talk about Dirac equations in Minkowski spacetime. In a geometric viewpoint, we can see that the spinor […]
Member Seminar Speaker: Juven Wang Title: C-P-T Fractionalization, and Quantum Criticality Beyond the Standard Model Abstract: Discrete spacetime symmetries of parity P or reflection R, and time-reversal T, act naively […]
During the 2021–22 academic year, the CMSA will be hosting a seminar on General Relativity, organized by Aghil Alaee, Jue Liu, Daniel Kapec, and Puskar Mondal. This seminar will take […]
Abstract: I will explain what the Festina Lente bound means and where it comes from. Then I discuss its possible implications for phenomenology, both top-down and bottom-up.
