Franz Luef (NTNU) will give  a talk with title "Sigma-models solitons on noncommutative spaces"

Abstract: Results from time-frequency analysis and Gabor analysis allow the construction of new classes of sigma-model solitons over the Moyal plane and over noncommutative tori, taken as source spaces, with a target space made of two points. A natural action functional leads to self-duality equations for projections in the source algebra. Solutions, having non-trivial topological content, are constructed via suitable Morita duality bimodules. This is joint work with L. Dabrowski and G. Landi.

Bartosz K. Kwaśniewski (University of Southern Denmark, Odense) will talk on: Topological aperiodicity for product systems of C*-correspondences

Abstract:We introduce a semigroup of multivalued maps dual to a product system of $C^*$-correspondences over an Ore semigroup. Under a certain aperiodicity condition on the dual semigroup we obtain a uniqueness theorem and a simplicity criterion for the associated Cuntz-Pimsner algebra. These results generalize similar statements for crossed products by groups (R. J. Archbold, J. S. Spielberg) and Exel’s crossed products (R. Exel, A. Vershik). They also give interesting conditions for topological higher rank graphs, and apply to the new Cuntz $C^*$-algebra $\mathcal{Q}_\mathbb{N}$ arising from the `$ax+b$'-semigroup over natural numbers. (Based on joint work with Wojciech Szymański.)

Makoto Yamashita, Ochanomizu University, will give a talk with title: Drinfeld center and representation theory for monoidal categories

Abstract: Motivated by the recently found relation between central completely positive multipliers and the spherical unitary representations of the Drinfeld double for discrete quantum groups, we construct and analyze the representations of fusion algebra of rigid C*-tensor category from the unitary half-braidings. Through the correspondence of Drinfeld center and the generalized Longo-Rehren construction in subfactor theory, these representations are also related to Popa’s theory of correspondences and subfactors. This talk is based on joint work with Sergey Neshveyev.

Abelian varieties XV: Abelian varieties are quotients of Jacobian varieties

Time and place: Dec. 12, 2014 2:00 PM - 3:00 PM, Aud 4 VB

Abstract: Soliton equations are an important class of nonlinear partial differential equations, which contain physically relevant equations like the Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation, the sine-Gordon equation, and the Nonlinear Schrödinger equation. While these equations govern very different physical phenomena, they have striking common structural properties like the existence of particle-like solutions (solitons) interacting in elastic collisions. The struggle to find a mathematical explanation has led to substantial progress in mathematical physics. Today it is known that the theory of soliton equations is linked to several major branches of mathematics. Our talk will be an introduction to an operator theoretic approach to soliton equations, which may be traced back to work of Marchenkov and enables us to apply Banach geometry in the study of solution families. As a motivation, we will carefully explain this in the most accessible case of the KdV equation. Then we will discuss further developments of the method in the study of matrix equations and hierarchies. In the applications part, we will talk on the asymptotic description of multiple pole solutions, the construction of matrix solitons and countable nonlinear superposition. We will illustrate our results by Mathematica plots.

Coffee/tea and cookies will be served from 13.30 to 13.55 in the rest area, 7th floor, NHA.
