https://youtu.be/QaOZCa8SFvA Speaker: Iddo Drori, MIT EE&CS and Columbia School of Engineering Title: Machine Learning 30 STEM Courses in 12 Departments Abstract: We automatically solve, explain, and generate university-level course problems from […]
Abstract: We consider the Cauchy problem for the Einstein equations for cosmological spacetimes, i.e. spacetimes with compact spatial hypersurfaces. Various classes of those dynamical spacetimes have been constructed and analyzed using […]
Abstract: The gig economy provides workers with the benefits of autonomy and flexibility, but it does so at the expense of work identity and co-worker bonds. Among the many reasons why […]
https://youtu.be/nnczlM1xhy4 Abstract: We present computations of the thermal Hall coefficient of phonons scattering off defects with multiple energy levels. Using a microscopic formulation based on the Kubo formula, we find that […]
Abstract: I will first review the construction of the moduli space of tropical curves (or metric graphs), and its relation to graph complexes. The graph Laplacian may be interpreted as a […]
Abstract: It is by now well-known that mirror symmetry may be expressed as an equivalence between categories associated to dual Kahler manifolds. Following a proposal of Teleman, we inaugurate a program […]
Abstract: Billiards on an elliptical billiard table are completely integrable: phase space is foliated by invariant submanifolds for the billiard flow. Birkhoff conjectured that ellipses are the only plane domains with […]
Abstract: Some recent work in the quantum gravity literature has considered what happens when the amplitudes of a TQFT are summed over the bordisms between fixed in-going and out-going boundaries. We […]
https://youtu.be/9Mq9Jvmo3ic Abstract: The Swampland program aims at uncovering the universal implications of quantum gravity at low-energy physics. I will review the basic ideas of the Swampland program, formal and phenomenological implications, […]
Abstract: Deep neural networks have achieved significant empirical success in many fields, including the fields of computer vision and natural language processing. Along with its empirical success, deep learning has been theoretically shown to be […]
Member Seminar Speaker: Yingying Wu Title: Moduli Space of Metric SUSY Graphs Abstract: SUSY curves are algebraic curves with additional supersymmetric or supergeometric structures. In this talk, I will present […]
Open Mic Discussion Topic: Entropy bounds (species bound, Bekenstein bound, CKN bound, and the like)
