학부생을 위한 강연회: What is the algebraic number theory?

Trisection of an angle and duplication of a cube are among the famous problems of Greeks. Although they were proven later to be impossible in general, Greeks already knew that one can trisect an angle and duplicate a cube by supplimenting se...

In this talk we will take a look at analysis on quantum spaces using non-commutative Lp spaces. We will first review what a non-commutative Lpspace is, and then we will see few examples of quantum spaces where Lp analysis problems arise natu...

Ergodic theory of horocycle flow and nilflow has been proved to be useful for analyzing the randomness of Mobius function, a function which reveals the mystery of prime numbers. In this survey talk, we will introduce Mobius function and seve...

It has been more than thirty years since white noise analysis was launched systematically. It is now a good time to have an overview of the theory and to reflect on its advantages in order to anticipate further developments of this theory. O...

Diffusion of information, rumors or epidemics via various social networks has been extensively studied for decades. In particular, Kempe, Kleinberg, and Tardos (KDD '03) proposed the general threshold model, a generalization of many mathemat...

Magnetic Resonance Electrical Impedance Tomography (MREIT) is a late medical imaging modality visualizing static conductivity images of electrically conducting subjects. When we inject current into the object, it produces internal distributi...

In this talk I will present some results in the area of topological, low-dimensional, discrete dynamical systems.

If a problem has an approximate solution, we try to get some information of the linearized kernel of the problem at the approximate solution to find a real solution. In this talk, I would like to introduce a different approach which is purel...

In this talk, I will explain a relationship of the Chern-Simons invariant and the eta invariant for Schottky hyperbolic manifolds. The relating formula involves a defect term given by the Bergman tau function over the conformal boundary Riem...

Brownian motion with darning (BMD) is a diffusion process obtained from Brownian motion by shorting each hole in the space into one point. In this talk, I will present a quick introduction to BMD and its basic properties including the zero p...

Representation theory is to study the actions of groups or algebras on vector spaces. Recently, its categorical version, categorical representation theory, attracts researchers in representation theory. In this theory we replace "vector spac...

오랜 세월동안 기득권을 누려오던 통신 업계는 이제 성장의 한계에 직면해 있다. 통신의 고유 영역이던 음성통화와 데이터 통신은 스마트폰의 활성화, 사업구조의 변화 등으로 인해 여타 산업군들에게 그 자리를 내어주며 더이상 캐시카우의 역할을 하지 못하...

We consider the problem of identifying the material properties from boundary measurements. For the conductivity case, this is known as Calderon problem: “Is it possible to determine the electrical conductivity inside a domain from the bounda...

There are basically two approaches for solving linear systems: one is to exactly solve the linear sytem such as Gaussian-elimination. The other approximates the solution in the Krylov spaces; Conjugate-gradient and General minimum residual m...

We present a mathematical justification of cloaking due to anomalous localized resonance (CALR). We consider the dielectric problem with a source term in a structure with a layer of plasmonic material. Using layer potentials and symmetrizati...

Conformal field theory and noncommutative geometry

둘레가 같은 평면의 영역중에서 넓이가 최대인 것은 원이라는 것이 등주부등식이다. 이와 똑 같은 등주부등식이 극소곡면에 대해서도 성립할 것이라는 예상이 90년 전에 제기되었다. 이 예상의 역사와 현주소에 대해서 알아보기로 하자.

학부에서 왜 abstract algebra I, II 를 온전히 배워야 하는지를 BC 5세기경 Pythagoras로 부터 시작된 수론 문제가 현재까지 어떻게 발전되어 왔는지를 예를 들어 설명합니다.
