For a topological dynamical systems (T, X) and a fixed $x \in X$
we are interested in the distribution of prime and semi-prime
orbits, i.e. ${T px}p='$ and ${T p1p2 x}p1,p2='$. We are interested
in systems for which the related sequences of...
In the 1980's, Atiyah introduced a mathematical definition of
the notion of a topological quantum field theory. In this talk,
I'll recall Atiyah's definition and explain the motivation for the
more elaborate notion of an extended topological field...

Although it is known that AdS/CFT as a quantum erasure
correction code is only approximate, there is still much to learn
about the precise bulk physical consequences of deviating from
exact erasure correction codes. In this talk, I will take...
How does the dimension of the first cohomology grow in a tower
of covering spaces? After a tour of examples of behaviors for
low-dimensional spaces, I will focus on arithmetic manifolds.
Specifically, for towers of complex hyperbolic manifolds, I...

Given the current knowledge of complex representations of finite
simple groups, obtaining good upper bounds for their characters
values is still a difficult problem, a satisfactory solution of
which would have significant implications in a number of...
