Abstract: 

In this joint work in progress with Helge Ruddat and Bernd Siebert, we employ a particular type of Log Smooth Degeneration (LSD) to study the Geometry of Enumerative Mirror Symmetry (GEMS).
 
Mirror Symmetry is a broad conjecture that predicts that symplectic invariants of a Kähler manifold correspond to algebro-geometric invariants of a mirror-dual complex algebraic variety. This is generally proven by computing both sides.
 
In this work, we take the first steps towards a full enumerative correspondence that canonically identifies the invariants of both sides. To do so, we employ the Intrinsic Mirror Construction of Gross-Siebert. Then the enumerative correspondence passes through an intermediary tropical manifold and tropical invariants thereof.
 
I will start by briefly describing the string theory origins of mirror symmetry (Candelas-de la Ossa-Green-Parkes) followed by a brief description of the computational solution to the physics prediction (Givental Mirror Symmetry). Then I will outline our program which puts the physics intuition on firm ground and takes the first steps towards showing that Enumerative Mirror Symmetry follows from the geometric dualities of the Intrinsic Mirror Construction.

Our project partner Statkraft owns and operates several hydropower plants in Brazil and requires information about the future potential for hydropower production in this region. To provide inflow projections for the next several decades, we use climate model output in combination with a regression model that links meteorological variables such as precipitation and temperature to inflow over various catchments in the region. The relatively short time period for which observation data are available raises concerns about overfitting. We therefore explore an alternative model fitting approach that retains the original, easily interpretable regression model but estimates the regression coefficients within an artificial neural network (ANN) framework which permits spatial and temporal regularization and thus prevents overfitting. We show some examples of the inflow projections obtained with that methodology and discuss some caveats and limitations.

Jana Legerská: 

Quantum physics is becoming increasingly important as the background knowledge for the emerging quantum technologies. In the recent years, the role of quantum physics in the high school curriculum has been emphasized, too. However, the curricular documents cannot bring a complete picture of incorporating quantum physics into the school reality.

In this talk, I will present a pilot study on describing the current state of teaching quantum physics at the high schools in the Czech Republic.

I will explore what topics are typically covered in what time constraints, what are teachers' main goals in their quantum physics teaching, and how teachers feel about introducing students to quantum physics.

Protein condensates inside human cells are liquid-like droplets composed of protein and RNA. These condensates interact with the heterogeneous, active and dense environment of the cytoplasm, crossed by various cytoskeletal filaments such as microtubules and actin. Wetting interactions with the cytoskeleton lead to stereotypical positioning of such protein droplets inside the cell. Using statistical physics approaches, we identified complementary functions of filamentous actin and microtubules: protein droplets couple to actin’s native dynamics in the cell through steric interactions leading to directional motion towards the cell center. Microtubules (and their molecular building-blocks), on the other hand, act as Pickering agents and engage in energetically favorable wetting interactions that lead to a robust localization of protein condensates in microtubule-rich regions of the cell. These interactions are non-specific and ultimately arise from different affinities (contact angles) between condensate and filament, suggesting that similar mechanisms may govern localization of other liquid-like phases within the cell.
