The lace expansion in the past, present and future
The lace expansion is one of the few methods to rigorously prove critical behavior for various models in high dimensions. It was initiated by David Brydges and Thomas Spencer in 1985 to show degeneracy of the critical behavior for weakly se...
Nonlocal equations, often modeled using the fractional Laplacian, have received significant attention in recent years. In this talk, we will briefly overview how the classical regularity theory for second-order (elliptic) PDEs (in divergenc...
Homogeneous dynamics and its application to number theory
Homogeneous dynamics, the theory of flows on homogeneous spaces, has been proved useful for certain problems in Number theory. In this talk, we will explain what kind of geometry and dynamics we need to solve certain number theoretic questi...
On classification of long-term dynamics for some critical PDEs
This talk concerns the problem of classifying long-term dynamics for critical evolutionary PDEs. I will first discuss what the critical PDEs are and soliton resolution for these equations. Building upon soliton resolution, I will further in...
Structural stability of meandering-hyperbolic group actions
Sullivan sketched a proof of his structural stability theorem for differentiabl group actions satisfying certain expansion-hyperbolicity axioms. We relax Sullivan’s axioms and introduce a notion of meandering hyperbolicity for group a...
In this talk, we investigate some regularity results for non-uniformly elliptic problems. We first present uniformly elliptic problems and the definition of non-uniform ellipticity. We then introduce a double phase problem which is characte...
There have been at least two surprising events to geometers in 80-90s that they had to admit physics really helps to solve classical problems in geometry. Donaldson proved the existence of exotic 4-dimensional Euclidean space using gauge th...
A feature of log-correlation naturally appears in diverse objects such as random matrices, random discrete geometries and Riemann zeta function. In this talk, I will give an overview on the theory of log-correlated fields and talk about rec...
This talk concerns maximal functions given by averages over some family of geometric objects. I will discuss the boundedness of those maximal functions on the Lebesgue spaces and its role in problems of harmonic analysis.
Concordance is a relation which classifies knots in 3-space via surfaces in 4-space, and it is closely related with low dimensional topology. Satellite operators are one of the main tools in the study of knot concordance, and it has been wi...
