In computer vision, generalization of neural representations is
usually measured on i.i.d. data. This hides the fact that
representations often struggle to generalize to non-i.i.d data and
fail to overcome the biases inherent in visual datasets. I...
I will discuss some applications of brane constructions of
rational integrable spin chains with Verma modules. These spin
chains appear in various gauge theories. They can be created in 4d
Chern-Simons theories with line operators, mapped to massive...
To an element in the completion of the set of Lagrangians for
the spectral distance we associate a support. We show that
such a support is γ-coisotropic (a notion we shall define in the
talk) and we shall give examples and counterexamples of γ...
This lecture will partly survey branching laws for real and
p-adic groups which often is related to period integrals of
automorphic representations, discuss some of the more recent
developments, focusing attention on homological aspects and
the...
I will describe the phenomenology of stellar basins: volumetric
stellar emission into gravitationally bound orbits of weakly
coupled particles such as axions, moduli, hidden photons, and
fermions. While only a tiny fraction of the instantaneous...
The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) collaboration has recently
published the first image of the near-horizon region around the
supermassive black hole at the center of our Milky Way galaxy, Sgr
A*. In addition to providing new constraints on general...
One of the central problems of coding theory is to determine the
trade-off between the amount of information a code can carry
(captured by its rate) and its robustness to resist message
corruption (captured by its distance). One of the main
methods...
Thresholds for increasing properties of random structures are a
central concern in probabilistic combinatorics and related
areas. In 2006, Kahn and Kalai conjectured that for any
nontrivial increasing property on a finite set, its threshold
is...
