Probability Seminar Note location change: Science Center Room 300H Speaker: Lior Alon (MIT) Title: Fourier quasicrystals and stable polynomials Abstract: The Poisson summation formula says that the countable sum of exp(int), over all integers n, vanishes as long as t is not an integer multiple of 2 pi. Can we find a non-periodic discrete set A, such […]
Probability Seminar Location: Room 109, Harvard Science Center, 1 Oxford Street, Cambridge MA 02138 Speaker: Dan Mikulincer (MIT) Title: Lipschitz properties of transport maps under a log-Lipschitz condition Abstract: Consider the problem of realizing a target probability measure as a push forward, by a transport map, of a given source measure. Typically one thinks about […]
