Simis Seminar series on Quantum computing, quantum simulation and strongly-correlated systems Speaker: Antonio Garcıa-Garcıa (Shanghai Jiao Tong University) Abstract: I first introduce the Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (SYK) model, N fermions in zero spatial dimensions with infinite range interactions in Fock space, and argue why it is a hot topic of research in theoretical physics. Afterwards, I review …

Speaker: Anurag Rao, SIMIS Abstract: Consider a noncompact homogeneous space equipped with the action of a one-parameter diagonable subgroup – for example the space of unimodular lattices in the plane with the action of the diagonal subgroup. In 1996 Kleinbock-Margulis proved the existence of a full dimension set of points having precompact orbit. We slightly …

Speaker: Yingdi Qin (SIMIS) Abstract: Kapustin and Orlov first notice that the D-branes of the Topological A-model (Fukaya category) are not necessarily supported on Lagragian submanifolds, certain coisotropic branes are also allowed. M.Gualtieri later generalizes the concept of coisotropic branes to generalized complex geometry, in which are called generalized complex branes. In this talk, I …

Speaker: Xinan Zhou Abstract: I will consider 4d N=4 SYM on real projective space preserving half of supersymmetry and focus on the case where charge conjugation is gauged.The holographic dual of this setup is a Z2 quotient of AdS5xS5 with an O1 orientifold.I will discuss how to use analytic conformal bootstrap techniques to compute all …

Speaker: Fernando Alday Abstract: I will describe recent progress in computing tree-level string amplitudes on curved AdS backgrounds, denoted AdS Virasoro-Shapiro amplitudes.In particular,we will discuss two limits,the Regge and high energy limits,where the amplitude can be computed in an explicit form. Time: 1:30-4:00 pm, Oct.21,2024 Location: Auditorium (18th floor) at SIMIS, Block A, No. 657 …

Speaker : Javad Mohammadkarimi Host: Huaxin Lin Abstract: In this talk, I give some information about the known uniform property Gamma for C*-algebras. Also, I talk about a version of the uniform property Gamma which is defined in a more general setting. Time: 2:30-3:30pm, Thursday, October 10th, 2024 Location: Room 1510, Block A, No. 657 Songhu Road, …

Speaker: Fei Si (Xi’an Jiaotong University) Abstract: Cohomology of moduli spaces of 1 dimensional sheaves on del Pezzo surfaces X is expected to refine enumerative geometry of the local Calabi-Yau 3-folds Tot(ω_X). On the one hand, the normalized generators of the cohomology of moduli space will induce Chern filtration on the cohomology. On the other …

Speaker: Andrea Seppi (the Institut Fourier of Grenoble) Abstract: The Asymptotic Plateau Problem in the hyperbolic space is the problem of existence of minimal surfaces with a prescribed Jordan curve as a boundary “at infinity”. Since the work of Anderson in the 1980s, it is known to have a solution, which is however in general …

Lecturer: Tianqing Zhu (YMSC, Tsinghua) Abstract: K-theoretic quasimap counting to quiver varieties is one of the core subject in the enumerative geometry. It turns out that it is connected to the representation theory of the Maulik-Okounkov quantum affine algebra via the stable envelopes. It has long been conjectured that the Maulik-Okounkov quantum affine algebra is …

Speaker: Liang Guo Host: Huaxin Lin Abstract: In this talk, we will introduce a notion of a coarse algebra associated with a metric space, and construct the twisted Roe algebras and a twisted coarse Baum-Connes assembly map associated with this coarse algebra. We will cover basic properties of the twisted Roe algebras and the K-theory …
