학과 세미나/콜로퀴엄 - PDE 세미나: Hydrodynamic limits of the Schrodinger equation with gauge fields
by 김정호(한양대학교 수학과)
In this talk, we present the hydrodynamic limits of the Schrodinger equation, affected by different gauge fields. Precisely, we first present the hydrodynamic limit of the Schrodinger equation with the Chern-Simons gauge fields (Chern-Simons-Schrodinger equation), toward to the Euler-Chern-Simons equation on the two-dimensional state space. Then, we consider the hydrodynamic limit of the Schrodinger equation with the Maxwell gauge fields (Maxwell-Schrodinger equation), toward to the Euler-Maxwell equation on the three-dimensional state space. Both estimate use the estimate on the modulated energy functionals.
A family F of subsets of {1,2,…,n} is called maximal k-wise intersecting if every collection of at most k members from
F has a common element, and moreover, no set can be added to F while preserving this property. In 1974, Erdős and Kleitman asked for the smallest possible size of a maximal k-wise intersecting family, for k≥3. We resolve this problem for k=3 and n even and sufficiently large.
This is joint work with Kevin Hendrey, Casey Tompkins, and Tuan Tran.
First, I will say a few words about Galois descent in the particular case of a projective variety embedded into a projective space. Then I will recall the definintion of a torsor and will explain how to construct the quotient of a torsor of a simple simply connected split algebraic group modulo a Borel subgroup. Finally, I will prove that the Picard group of such a quotient does not change for one particular finite Galois extension of the base field, and then, if there is enough time, for any extension of the base field.
We will survey recent development in subadditive thermodynamic formalism for matrix cocycles. In particular, in the setting of locally constant cocycles as well as fiber-bunched cocycles, we will discuss sufficient conditions for the norm potentials of such cocycles to have unique equilibrium states. If time permitting, we will also discuss ergodic properties of such equilibrium states as well as some applications.
The nonorientable four-ball genus of a knot $K$ in $S^3$ is the minimal first Betti number of nonorientable surfaces in $B^4$ bounded by $K$. By amalgamating ideas from involutive knot Floer homology and unoriented knot Floer homology, we give a new lower bound on the smooth nonorientable four-ball genus $\gamma_4$ of any knot. This bound is sharp for several families of torus knots, including $T_{4n,(2n\pm 1)^2}$ for even $n\ge2$, a family Longo showed were counterexamples to Batson's conjecture. We also prove that, whenever $p$ is an even positive integer and $\frac{p}{2}$ is not a perfect square, the torus knot $T_{p,q}$ does not bound a locally flat M{\" o}bius band for almost all integers $q$ relatively prime to $p$.
The purpose of this talk is to mathematically investigate the formation of a plasma sheath, and to analyze the Bohm criterions which are required for the formation. Bohm derived originally the (hydrodynamic) Bohm criterion from the Euler–Poisson system. Boyd and Thompson proposed the (kinetic) Bohm criterion from kinetic point of view, and then Riemann derived it from the Vlasov–Poisson system. We study the solvability of boundary value problems of the Vlasov–Poisson system. On the process, we see that the kinetic Bohm criterion is a necessary condition for the solvability. The argument gives a simpler derivation of the criterion. Furthermore, the hydrodynamic criterion can be derived from the kinetic criterion. It is of great interest to find the relation between the solutions of the Vlasov–Poisson and Euler–Poisson systems. To clarify the relation, we also investigate the hydrodynamic limit of solutions of the Vlasov–Poisson system.

학과 세미나/콜로퀴엄 - 콜로퀴엄: On a conjecture of Coleman concerning Euler systems
by 서수길(연세대학교)
We introduce a distribution-theoretic conjecture of Roert Coleman of the 1980's and prove the conjecture in a recent joint work with Burns and Daoud. This accordingly gives an explicit description of the complete set of Euler systems for the multiplicative group over Q together with a connection to other conjectures in number theory.

학과 세미나/콜로퀴엄 - 콜로퀴엄: Fractional particles, braiding, and entanglement
by 심흥선(KAIST 물리학과)
Anyons are quasiparticles in two dimensions. They do not belong to the two classes of elementary particles, bosons and fermions. Instead, they obey Abelian or non-Abelian fractional statistics. Their quantum mechanical states are determined by fusion or braiding, to which braid groups and conformal field theories are naturally applied. Some of non-Abelian anyons are central in realization of topological qubits and topological quantum computing. I will introduce the basic properties of anyons and their recent experimental signatures observed in systems of topological order such as fractional quantum Hall systems and topological superconductors.
