ESOP seminar. Joseph Harrington is the Patrick T. Harker Professor of Business Economics and Public Policy at the Wharton School of Business, University of Pennsylvania. He will present a paper entitled "Collusion through Coordination of Announcements", co-authored by Lixin Ye.
Join us for the screening of Pili, a feature length drama set in rural Tanzania reflecting the life a poor, HIV-positive single mother of two children. The film will be followed by a Q&A with Dr Sophie Harman, producer of the film and researcher in International Relations/Global Health (QMUL).
ESOP seminar. Claudia Steinwender is an Assistant Professor at MIT Sloan School of Management. She will present a paper entitled "Spinning the web: The impact of ICT on trade in intermediates and technology diffusion", co-authored by Réka Juhász.
On Friday, instead of the ordinary institute seminar, we'll have Friday mingle in the lobby. We will celebrate some of the Institute's history and past research leaders with an extra good birthday cake, so please come! It will be time to chat and hear what people are doing. Friday at 11.00 in the lobby.
Kurusch Ebrahimi-Fard (NTNU) will give a talk with title: Moment-cumulant relations in noncommutative probability and shuffle-exponentials
Abstract: In this talk we consider monotone, free, and boolean moment-cumulant relations from the shuffle algebra viewpoint. Cumulants are described as infinitesimal characters over a particular combinatorial Hopf algebra, which is neither commutative nor cocommutative. As a result the moment-cumulant relations can be encoded in terms of shuffle and half-shuffle exponentials. These shuffle exponentials and the corresponding logarithms permit to express monotone, free, and boolean cumulants in terms of each other using the pre-Lie Magnus expansion. If time permits we will revisit additive convolution in monotone, free and boolean probability and related aspects. Based on joint work with F. Patras (CNRS).
In this seminar drawing from a combined epidemiological and ethnographic study, Dr Freya Jephcott (Queen's College Cambridge), will unpack the consequences of involving different types of actors, both national and international, in the response to a mysterious outbreak in Ghana (2012). Come and join us for an interesting discussion!
In this second talk I will prove the local slice theorem and give examples of applications, discuss compactness properties of instanton moduli spaces, and explain the definition and some properties of instanton homology.
In their book "Riemann-Roch Algebra", Fulton and Lang give an account of Chern classes in lambda-rings and a general version of Grothendieck's Riemann-Roch theorem. Their definition of Chern classes is based on the additive formal group law. In work on connective K-theory, Greenlees and I have given an account of Chern classes in lambda-rings based on the multiplicative formal group law. This account has an evident generalization to any formal group law. The course will be an attempt to carry out Fulton and Lang's program in this more general setting. Hoped for applications include generalizations of results relating rational lambda-modules to twisted Dirichlet characters. ---
