Abstract: We show low regularity local well-posedness for Maxwell equations in media. To this end, we show Strichartz estimates for solutions to Maxwell equations withcoefficients of regularity C^2 and lower. The proof is based on a diagonalization with pseudo-differential operators. In two…

Coding is the last step in writing a program. The first step is deciding what we want to achieve and how. The best methods for working through subsequent steps consist in using simple mathematics. Few programmers know how to do this or where to learn it. This lecture will use various examples to…

This talk will discuss some nontrivial but often pleasant effects of large learning rates, which are commonly used in machine learning practice for improved empirical performances, but defy traditional theoretical analyses. I will first quantify how large learning rates can help gradient descent…

The moduli spaces of one-dimensional sheaves on the projective plane have been studied through their connections to enumerative geometry and representation theory. In this talk, I will explain a systematic approach to study their cohomology rings, using notably tautological relations of…

In my talk, I will start by reviewing how various properties of characteristic zero singularities can be understood topologically by ways of the Riemann-Hilbert correspondence. After that, I will explain how similar ideas can be applied in the study of mixed characteristic singularities.…
