In their seminal works from the 80's, Lubotzky, Phillips and
Sarnak proved the following two results: (i) An explicit
construction of Ramanujan regular graphs. (ii) An explicit method
of placing points on the sphere uniformly equidistributed...
Motivated by questions in computer science, we consider the problem
of approximating local points (real or p-adic points) on the unit
sphere S^d optimally by the projection of the integral points lying
on R*S^d, where R^2 is an integer. We present...
We prove the existence and the linear stability of Cantor families
of small amplitude time quasi-periodic standing water waves
solutions, namely periodic and even in the space variable $x$, of a
bi-dimensional ocean with finite depth under the...
We present an explicit pseudorandom generator with seed length
$\tilde{O}((\log n)^{w+1})$ for read-once, oblivious, width $w$
branching programs that can read their input bits in any order.
This improves upon the work of Impaggliazzo, Meka and...
Abstract: In this talk, I will give a new construction of the
Morse-Bott cochain complex, where the underlying vector space is
generated by the cohomology of the critical manifolds. This new
construction has two nice features: (1) It requires the...
The language edit distance is a significant generalization of
two basic problems in computer science: parsing and string edit
distance computation. Given any context free grammar, it computes
the minimum number of insertions, deletions and...
In this talk, we first introduce the notion of a continuous
cover of a manifold parametrised by any compact manifold
endowed with a mass 1 volume-form. We prove that any such cover
admits a partition of unity where the usual sum is replaced
by...
After a brief introduction to the dynamics of the
$\mathrm{GL}(2,\mathbb R)$ action on the Hodge bundle (the space of
translations surfaces), we will give a construction of six new
orbit closures and explain why they are interesting. Joint work
with...

Albert Einstein’s general theory of relativity, a pillar of modern
physics formulated 100 years ago, will be celebrated by the
Institute for Advanced Study and Princeton University in a two-day
conference, General...
