The next few talks will be more like learning than research: I will explain some preparation material, which is considered "well-known" by the experts, but which I didn't find a reference for in the form I need. My next goal is to explain the proof that the Picard group of the so-called quotient of a torsor of a simply connected simple split algebraic group modulo a Borel subgroup does not change under field extension. In the first talk I will explain the basic machinery to prove this fact, namely Galois descent theory. Given a variety X over a non-algebraically closed field F with no or "not enough" rational points, Galois descent theory allows one to work with an extension K of F and with X_K and study the properties of the original X. If there is enough time, I will also define torsors and show how to construct them using Galois descent.

Within a given species, fluctuations in egg or embryo size is unavoidable. Despite this, the gene expression pattern and hence the embryonic structure often scale in proportion with the body length. This scaling phenomenon is very common in development and regeneration and has long fascinated scientists. I will first discuss a generic theoretical framework to show how scaling gene expression pattern can emerge from non-scaling morphogen gradients. I will then demonstrate that the Drosophila gap gene system achieves scaling in a way that is entirely consistent with our theory. Remarkably, a parameter-free model based on the theory quantitatively accounts for the gap gene expression pattern in nearly all morphogen mutants. Furthermore, the regulation logic and the coding/decoding strategy of the gap gene system can be revealed. Our work provides a general theoretical framework on a large class of problems where scaling output is induced by non-scaling input, as well as a unified understanding of scaling, mutants’ behavior and regulation in the Drosophila gap gene and related systems.

Partial differential equations such as heat equations have traditionally been our main tool to study physical systems. However, physical systems are affected by randomness (noise). Thus, stochastic partial differential equations have gained popularity as an alternative. In this talk, we first consider what “noise” means mathematically and then consider stochastic heat equations perturbed by space-time white noise such as parabolic Anderson model and stochastic reaction-diffusion equations (e.g., KPP or Allen-Cahn equations). Those stochastic heat equations have similar properties as heat equations, but exhibit different behavior such as intermittency and dissipation, especially as time increases. We investigate in this talk how the long-time behaviors of the stochastic heat equations are different from heat equations.

In this talk, we are going to discuss boundary regularities of various degenerate local equation and nonlocal equations. Diffusion rates deform undefined geometry related to diffusion and the corresponding distance function makes important role in the theory of regularity. And then we will also discuss the possible applications.
