Title: Constructing (infinity,n)-categories with desired properties Abstract: In this talk I want to describe a specific example of a symmetric monoidal (infinity,3)-category of generalized spans with local systems (a la Haugseng) where the local systems compose with a push-pull formula similar to the Fourier-Mukai transform of algebraic geometry. The motivation comes from physics and functorial […]

Title: Three theorems about asymptotic expansions of harmonic functions at the boundaryAbstract: Consider a harmonic function on a domain, vanishing along a part of its boundary, and a point on that part of the boundary which is asymptotically conical. I will explain that under a very mild notion of "asymptotically conical," the harmonic function has […]

Title: On the generalized Beauville decomposition.Abstract: Over 30 years ago, the work of Beauville and Deninger-Murre endowed the cohomology of an abelian scheme a (motivic) decomposition which splits the Leray filtration. This structure, now known as the Beauville decomposition, is induced by algebraic cycles obtained from the Fourier-Mukai coherent duality. In recent years, the study of Hitchin […]

Title: Calculus of fractions for quasicategories Abstract: A central object of interest in abstract homotopy theory is the localization of marked categories. One case of interest is when the marked category admits a "calculus of fractions". This condition was introduced by P. Gabriel and M. Zisman to construct better-behaved models for the localization. For instance, […]

Title: Potential Singularity of the 3D Navier-Stokes equations Abstract: Whether the 3D incompressible Navier-Stokes equations can develop a finite time singularity from smooth initial data is one of the most challenging problems in nonlinear PDEs. In the first talk, we will present some new numerical evidence that the 3D Navier-Stokes equations seem to develop nearly […]

Title: Torsion vanishing for some Shimura varietiesAbstract: We will discuss joint work with Linus Hamann on generalizing the torsion-vanishing results of Caraiani-Scholze and Koshikawa for the cohomology of Shimura varieties. We do this by applying various geometric methods to understand sheaves on Bun_G, the moduli stack of G-bundles on the Fargues-Fontaine curve. Our method showcases that […]
