Generic global existence for the modified SQG equation
Javier Gomez-Serrano
9:00am|Simonyi 101 and Remote Access

Abstract: In this talk we will present a construction of global existence of small solutions of the modified SQG equations, close to the disk. The proof uses KAM theory and a Nash-Moser argument, and does not involve any external parameters. We...

On the sticky particle solutions to the pressureless Euler system in general dimension
Sara Daneri
10:30am

Abstract: In this talk we consider the pressureless Euler system in dimension greater than or equal to two. Several works have been devoted to the search of solutions which satisfy the following adhesion or sticky particle principle: if two...

The quartic integrability and long time existence of steep water waves in 2D
9:00am|Simonyi 101 and Remote Access

Abstract:  It is known since the work of Dyachenko & Zakharov  that for the weakly nonlinear 2d infinite depth water waves, there are no 3-wave interactions and all of the 4-wave interaction coefficients vanish on the non-trivial resonant manifold...

Non-Newtonian fluids and convex integration
Stefano Modena
2:00pm|Simonyi 101 and Remote Access

Abstract: The viscosity of a fluid is usually a constant, independent of the stress. There are however in nature several examples of fluids (ice, molten lava, blood, certain polymers, some salt solutions) where viscosity changes under applied forces...

On the competition between advection and vortex stretching
Jiajie Chen
4:00pm|Simonyi 101 and Remote Access

Abstract: Whether the 3D incompressible Euler equations can develop a finite-time singularity from smooth initial data is an outstanding open problem. The presence of vortex stretching is the primary source of a potential finite-time singularity...

Non-uniqueness of Leray solutions of the forced Navier-Stokes equations
9:00am|Simonyi 101 and Remote Access

Abstract:In his seminal work, Leray demonstrated the existence of global weak solutions, with nonincreasing energy, to the Navier-Stokes equations in three dimensions. In this talk we exhibit two distinct Leray solutions with zero initial velocity...

An Intermittent Onsager Theorem
Vlad Vicol
10:30am|Simonyi 101 and Remote Access

For any regularity exponent $\beta<\frac 12$, we construct non-conservative weak solutions to the 3D incompressible Euler equations in the class $C^0_t (H^{\beta} \cap L^{\frac{1}{(1-2\beta)}})$.  By interpolation, such solutions belong to $C^0_tB^{s}_{3,\infty}$ for $s$ approaching $\frac 13$ as $\beta$ approaches $\frac 12$.  Hence this result provides a new proof of the flexible side of the Onsager conjecture, which is independent from that of Isett.  Of equal importance is that the intermittent nature of our solutions matches that of turbulent flows, which are observed to possess an $L^2$-based regularity index exceeding $\frac 13$.  The proof employs an intermittent convex integration scheme for the 3D incompressible Euler equations.  We employ a scheme with higher-order Reynolds stresses, which are corrected via a combinatorial placement of intermittent pipe flows of optimal relative intermittency.

Abstract: Let G be a connected reductive group over a p-adic field F and let $\pi$ be an irreducible admissible representation of $G(\overline{F})$. Due to Harish-Chandra, there is a development of the character of $\pi$ near the origin and we can...

Abstract : Let $E/F$ be a quadratic extension of local fields of characteristic zero. In this talk, I will explain two ways to compute the Plancherel decomposition of $L^2(GL_n(F)\backslash GL_n(E))$. In both cases, the result involves the image of...

Restriction problem for non-generic representation of Arthur type

Relative character asymptotics and applications
Paul Nelson
4:00pm|Simonyi Hall 101
Abstract: Relative (or spherical) characters describe the restriction of a representation to a subgroup. They arise naturally in the study of periods of automorphic forms, e.g., in the setting of conjectures of Gan-Gross-Prasad and Ichino-Ikeda. I...

Endoscopy and cohomology growth on unitary groups
Simon Marshall

Abstract: One of the principles of the endoscopic classification is that if an automorphic representation of a classical group is non-tempered at any place, then it should arise as a transfer from an endoscopic subgroup. One also knows that any...

Abstract: In work-in-progress with Pierre Charollois, Luis Garcia and Akshay Venkatesh we give a new construction of some Eisenstein classes for $GL_N (Z)$ that were first considered by Nori and Sczech. The starting point of this construction is a...

Jacob Tsimerman
11:30am|Simonyi Hall 101
Abstract: (joint with N.Mok, J.Pila) Shimura varieties (S) are uniformized by symmetric spaces (H), and the uniformization map Pi:H --> S is quite transcendental. Understanding the interaction of this map with the two algebraic structures is of...

Smith theory and Langlands functoriality

According to Langlands’ conjectures, algebraic automorphic forms should be parametrized by global Galois representations, and smooth representations of $p$-adic groups should be parametrized by local Galois representations. These parametrizations...

Modular perverse sheaves on symplectic singularities

A symplectic singularity has a natural stratification by Poisson leaves, which are symplectic, hence even-dimensional.  Perverse sheaves constructible with respect to this stratification are semisimple if the coefficients are in characteristic zero...

Let G be a semisimple group over an algebraically closed field of large characteristic. There are two important types of rational representations of G: the Weyl modules and the simple modules. We will explain how to go from the first type to the...

Flag manifolds over semifields I
10:30am|Virtual

The study of totally positive matrices, i.e., matrices with positive minors, dates back to 1930s. The theory was generalised by Lusztig to arbitrary split reductive groups using canonical bases, and has significant impacts on the theory of cluster...

What can one say about the fields of values of irreducible complex characters $\chi$ of a given finite group $G$? In particular when $G$ is a finite (quasi)simple group? What about the ``McKay situation'', i.e. when the degree of $\chi$ is coprime...
