SUMMARY:Richard P. Stanley Seminar in Combinatorics: Unbalancing unit vectors
DESCRIPTION:The Komlós conjecture is a prominent vector balancing problem: how can we choose signs to keep a sum of vectors small? Here we ask how large a signed sum can be guaranteed. Given n unit vectors in d-dimensional Euclidean space\, with n at least d\, we show that some choice of signs produces a sum of length at least √(2n − d). This resolves a conjecture of Ambrus and Nietert when n = d + 1. Our proof draws on a combinatorial form of Vaaler’s cube slicing theorem. We also characterize all configurations for which the bound is attained. This is joint work with Jeck Lim and Skand Parvatikar. \n\nFor information about the Richard P.

SUMMARY:Harvard Mathematical Picture Language Seminar: 4D Hex and Baby Yang-Mills
DESCRIPTION:  \n\nThe 2D O(n) model is a very close analog of 4D lattice Yang-Mills. The quest to understand the former (mass gap\, scaling limit\, etc.) has been colloquially called the “baby Yang-Mills problem” or the “half million-dollar-problem.” Now\, several recent OpenAI papers on the 2D O(n) model (one of which comes with Lean code) claim to have solved much of this problem. But how exactly is this relevant to 4D Yang-Mills. \nI will review and explain how the 2D model derives special properties from the identity 1+1=2 while the 4D model derives special properties from the identity 2+2=4. The 2D model is related to random loop ensembles\, while the 4D model is related to random surface ensembles. I will discuss the new proofs and the challenges involved in constructing analogous proofs in 4D. As a warmup\, try playing a few games of 2D Hex (players compete to make spanning paths on a 2D board) and 4D Hex (players compete to make spanning surfaces on a 4D board) and think about what makes the second game harder to analyze. \n\nRecorded seminars can be viewed on the Mathematical Picture Language YouTube channel.

SUMMARY:CMSA Q&A Seminar: What is a self-concordant barrier function?\, and what is an accelerated first-order algorithm?  (ICM Series: On the work of Yurii Nesterov)
DESCRIPTION:The two most impactful contributions of Nesterov on both theory and computation in optimization are (i) self-concordant barriers for interior-point methods in convex optimization\, and (ii) accelerated first-order methods for convex optimization. My own research in continuous optimization – and indeed my perspective on the field of mathematical optimization — has been profoundly impacted by Nesterov. In this talk I aim to explain these two contributions – self-concordant barriers and accelerated first-order methods – and how they have fundamentally improved optimization both computationally and theoretically.

SUMMARY:CMSA New Technologies in Mathematics Seminar:  Local learning needs dendrites
DESCRIPTION:I will present a learning scheme for recurrent networks in which nonlinear dendrites enable learning by generating and stabilizing task-relevant attractors within a representation manifold. The scheme is local in space and time and matches the performance of backpropagation through time on the same architecture\, while following a fundamentally different trajectory in weight space. Statistical physics reveals how dendritic gating and the geometry of the representation manifold support this alternative route to learning.\nZoom link:https://harvard.zoom.us/j/95406961810  Passcode: cmsa

SUMMARY:Richard P. Stanley Seminar in Combinatorics: Totally positive skew symmetric matrices
DESCRIPTION:A matrix is totally positive if all of its minors are positive. The classical notion of total positivity coincides with the type A version of Lusztig’s more general total positivity in reductive real-split algebraic groups. Since skew-symmetric matrices always have nonpositive entries\, they are not totally positive in the classical sense. The space of skew-symmetric matrices is an affine chart of the orthogonal Grassmannian OGr(n\, 2n). Thus\, we define a skew-symmetric matrix to be totally positive if it lies in the totally positive orthogonal Grassmannian. We provide a positivity criterion for these matrices in terms of a fixed collection of minors\, and show that their Pfaffians have a remarkable sign pattern. The totally positive orthogonal Grassmannian is a CW cell complex and is subdivided into Richardson cells. We introduce a method to determine which cell a given point belongs to in terms of its associated matroid. \n\nFor information about the Richard P.

SUMMARY:CMSA Colloquium: The Geography of Symplectic 4-Manifolds
DESCRIPTION:The symplectic geography problem\, originally posed by J. McCarthy-J. Wolfson and R. Gompf\, asks which ordered pairs of nonnegative integers are realized as (\chi(X)\,c_1^2(X)) for a symplectic 4-manifold X\, where \chi(X)=(e(X)+\sigma(X))/4. In this talk\, we will address the geography of simply connected spin and nonspin symplectic 4-manifolds with small Euler characteristic\, with nonnegative signature\, or near the Bogomolov-Miyaoka-Yau line c_1^2(X)=9\chi_h(X). We will also discuss recent developments\, including joint work with Sai-Kee Yeung on symplectic fake quadrics and related questions motivated by fake projective planes and Cartwright-Steger surfaces.

SUMMARY:CMSA New Technologies in Mathematics Seminar: The IEANTN Project: Automation and Mathematical Understanding
DESCRIPTION:Explicit analytic number theory combines conceptual arguments with extensive bookkeeping and numerical computation\, often drawing on long chains of results across many papers. The Integrated Explicit Analytic Number Theory Network (IEANTN) aims to organize this literature into a living network whose dependencies and supporting evidence are explicit.\n\nIn this talk\, I will discuss how we redesigned IEANTN from its 1.0 version\, which put everything in a single Lean repository that was hard to maintain and rebuild as auto-formalization produces increasingly large proofs\, to its current 2.0 version\, which solves this problem by separating readable mathematical statements from verified proofs and recording different levels of justification.\n\nFinally\, I will discuss what we hope to automate and what we want to understand ourselves. By organizing the literature into a network\, we hope to make the mathematical ideas and relationships easier to see\, and leave the detailed bookkeeping to machines.\n\n\n\nZoom link:https://harvard.zoom.us/j/95406961810  Passcode: cmsa

SUMMARY:Introductory Math Seminar: Some Thoughts on Teaching: Why Physics Matters for the Integral Theorems of Vector Calculus
DESCRIPTION:Vector calculus came into being in the 19th century alongside fundamental developments in physics\, especially electromagnetism. It is in the context of electromagnetism that the integral theorems\, in particular\, find their clearest meaning and purpose. Trying to remove physics talk from pedagogy in vector calculus might seem like a good way to reduce the cognitive load on students\, but\, in this talk\, I will argue that this approach ends up being counterproductive. I will instead argue that instruction on the integral theorems of vector calculus should involve concepts from electromagnetism at every step.

SUMMARY:CMSA Colloquium: Snake graphs and q-deformed real numbers
DESCRIPTION:I’ll present a statistical-mechanical construction of q-deformed real numbers [[x]]_q\, inspired by the q-deformed rational numbers [x]_q of Morier-Genoud and Ovsienko. The new construction admits two equivalent formulations: one in terms of random filters in snake posets and the other in terms of random dimer covers of snake graphs.\n\nI’ll begin with a combinatorial approach to Stern’s diatomic series and the Calkin–Wilf bijection via finite snake graphs\, and then construct q-deformed rational numbers by introducing an activity parameter q into the model. I extend from q-deformed rationals to q-deformed reals by passing from finite to infinite snake graphs; the main technical step is to show that the associated limiting probability measures are well defined. \n\nThe resulting q-deformation [[x]]_q satisfies [[x]]_1 = x for all x>0. There’s evidence that\, wherever both [x]_q and [[x]]_q are defined\, [[x]]_q = q  [x]_q. For more details\, see arXiv:2607.14332.\n\n\n\n
