DESCRIPTION:Title: Mathematics of magic angles for bilayer graphene\nby Maciej Zworsk
i (UC Berkeley) (UC Berkeley) as part of PDE Analysis Seminar\n\n\nAbstrac
t\nMagic angles are a hot topic in condensed matter physics: when two shee
ts of graphene\nare twisted by those angles the resulting material is supe
rconducting. Please do not be\nscared by the physics though: I will presen
t a very simple operator whose spectral properties\nare thought to determi
ne which angles are magical. It comes from a recent PR Letter\nby Tarnopol
sky–Kruchkov–Vishwanath. The mathematics behind this is an elementary\
nblend of representation theory (of the Heisenberg group in characteristic
three)\, Jacobi\ntheta functions and spectral instability of non-self-adj
oint operators (involving Hörmander’s\nbracket condition in a very simp
le setting). The results will be illustrated by colourful\nnumerics which
suggest some open problems. The talk is based on a “summer relaxation\np
roject” with S. Becker\, M. Embree and J. Wittsten.\n

DESCRIPTION:Title: Dynamics of dilute gases at equilibrium: from the atomistic descriptio
n to fluctuating hydrodynamics\nby Isabelle Gallagher (Ecole Normale S
upérieure) as part of PDE Analysis Seminar\n\n\nAbstract\nWe consider the
low density limit of a deterministic system of particles. Lanford’s the
orem in 1974 states that the empirical distribution converges in law to th
e solution to the Boltzmann equation\, for short times. Recently\, the flu
ctuation field has been shown to converge to a Gaussian process\, and this
convergence holds for arbitrarily long times if the gas is at equilibrium
. In this talk we will explain the main ideas of the proof\, and show how
linear fluctuating hydrodynamics can be derived from this model at equilib
rium.\n\nhttps://mit.zoom.us/j/96019944889?pwd=em5VVFJab1o2NlZtWGZVdDRQWmx

DESCRIPTION:Title: COUNTING CLOSED GEODESICS AND IMPROVING WEYL’S LAW FOR PREDOMINANT S
ETS OF METRICS\nby Yaiza Canzani (UNC) as part of PDE Analysis Seminar
\n\n\nAbstract\nWe discuss the typical behavior of two important quantitie
s on compact manifolds with a Riemannian metric g: the number\, c(T\,g)\,
of primitive closed geodesics of length smaller than T\, and the error\, E
(L\,g)\, in the Weyl law for counting the number of Laplace eigenvalues th
at are smaller than L. For Baire generic metrics\, the qualitative behavio
r of both of these quantities has been understood since the 1970’s and 1
980’s. In terms of quantitative behavior\, the only available result is
due to Contreras and it says that an exponential lower bound on c(T\,g) ho
lds for g in a Baire-generic set. Until now\, no upper bounds on c(T\,g) o
r quantitative improvements on E(L\,g) were known to hold for most metrics
\, not even for a dense set of metrics. In this talk\, we will introduce t
he concept of predominance in the space of Riemannian metrics. This is a n
otion that is analogous to having full Lebesgue measure in finite dimensio
ns\, and which\, in particular\, implies density. We will then give stretc
hed exponential upper bounds for c(T\,g) and logarithmic improvements for
E(L\,g) that hold for a predominant set of metrics. This is based on joint
work with J. Galkowski.\n

DESCRIPTION:Title: VORTEX SYMMETRIZATION PROBLEM FOR THE 2D EULER EQUATION\nby Hao J
ia (University of Minnesota) as part of PDE Analysis Seminar\n\nLecture he
ld in Room 2-147 in the Simons Building.\n\nAbstract\nThe 2d incompressibl
e Euler equation is globally well posed for smooth initial data. However t
he long term dynamics of general solutions is difficult to understand due
to the lack of global relaxation mechanisms. Numerical simulations and phy
sical experiments show that vortices (steady solutions with radial vortici
ty functions) play an important role in the global dynamics\, through a pr
ocess called vortex symmetrization of small perturbations. In this talk\,
I will discuss some recent progress on this problem\, including a full non
linear symmetrization result near a special point vortex and precise linea
rized symmetrization result near general vortices. Difficulties of full no
nlinear vortex symmetrization around general vortices will also be discuss
ed. Joint work with Alexandru Ionescu.\n

DESCRIPTION:Title: Estimation of propagation of chaos via cumulant hierarchies in two ex
ample models\nby Jani Lukkarinen (U Helsinki) as part of PDE Analysis
Seminar\n\nLecture held in Room 2 - 136 in the Simons Building.\n\nAbstrac
t\nPropagation and generation of “chaos” is an important ingredient in
rigorous control of applicability of kinetic theory\, in general. Chaos c
an here be understood as sufficient statistical independence of random var
iables related to the “kinetic” observables of the system. Cumulant hi
erarchy of these random variables thus often gives a way of controlling th
e evolution and the degree of such independence\, i.e.\, the amount of “
chaos” in the system. In this talk\, we will consider two\, qualitativel
y different\, example cases for which kinetic theory is believed to be app
licable: the discrete nonlinear Schrodinger evolution (DNLS) with suitable
random\, spatially homogeneous initial data\, and the stochastic Kac mode
l. In both cases\, we set up suitable random variables and propose methods
to control the evolution of their cumulant hierarchies. The talk is based
on joint work with Aleksis Vuoksenmaa\, and earlier works with Matteo Mar
cozzi\, Alessia Nota\, and Herbert Spohn.\n

DESCRIPTION:Title: Stability of a point charge for the repulsive Vlasov-Poisson system
a>\nby Benoit Pausader (Brown) as part of PDE Analysis Seminar\n\nLecture
held in 2-136.\n\nAbstract\nWe consider solutions of the repulsive Vlasov-
Poisson systems which are a combination of a point charge and a small dens
ity with respect to Liouville measure (a “cloud”)\, and we show that t
hese solutions exist globally\, that the electric field decay at an optima
l rate and that the particle distribution converges along a modified scatt
ering dynamics. This follows by a Lagrangian study of the linearized equat
ion\, which is integrated by means of an asymptotic action-angle coordinat
e transformation\, and an Eulerian study of the nonlinear dynamic which ex
hibits the “mixing” mechanism responsible for the asymptotic behavior.

DESCRIPTION:Title: A SHARP SQUARE FUNCTION ESTIMATE FOR THE MOMENT CURVE IN $\\mathbb{R}
^{3}$\nby Dominique Maldague (MIT Mathematics) as part of PDE Analysis
Seminar\n\n\nAbstract\n\\noindent We will present recent work which prove
s a sharp $L^{7}$ square function estimate for the moment curve in $\\math
bb{R}^{3}$. Consider a function f with Fourier support in a small neighbor
hood of the moment curve. Partition the neighborhood into box-like subsets
and form a square function in the Fourier projections of f onto these box
-like regions. Bounding $f$ in $L_{p}$ by the square function in $L_{p}$ i
s an important way to quantify the cancellation that f has from its specia
lized Fourier support. As Guth\, Wang\, and Zhang did for the cone in 3 di
mensions\, this is another example of using ideas and techniques from deco
upling theory to prove a sharp square function estimate.\n

DESCRIPTION:Title: Fourier quasicrystals and stable polynomials\nby Lior Alon (MIT)
as part of PDE Analysis Seminar\n\nLecture held in Room 2-136 in the Simon
's Building.\n\nAbstract\nThe Poisson summation formula says that the coun
table sum of exp(int)\, over all integers $n$\, vanishes as long as t is n
ot an integer multiple of $2π$. Can we find a non-periodic discrete set A
\, such that the sum of exp(iat)\, over a in A\, vanishes for all t outsid
e of a discrete set? The surprising answer is yes. Yves Meyer called the a
tomic measure supported on such a set a crystalline measure. Crystalline m
easures provide another surprising connection between physics (quasicrysta
ls) and number theory (the zeros of the Zeta and L functions under GRH). A
recent work of Pavel Kurasov and Peter Sarnak provided a construction of
crystalline measures with ‘good’ convergence (Fourier quasicrystals) u
sing stable polynomials\, a family of multivariate polynomials that were p
reviously used in proving the Lee-Yang circle theorem and the Kadison-Sing
er conjecture. After providing the needed background\, I will discuss a re
cent work in progress with Cynthia Vinzant on the classification of these
Kurasov-Sarnak measures and their supporting sets. We prove that these set
s have well-defined gap distributions. We show that each Kurasov-Sarnak me
asure decomposes according to the irreducible decomposition of its associa
ted polynomial\, and the measures associated with each irreducible factor
is either supported on an arithmetic progression\, or its support has a bo
unded intersection with any arithmetic progression. Finally\, we construct
random Kurasov-Sarnak measures with gap distribution as close as we want
to the eigenvalues spacing of a random unitary matrix.\n
