09/19/2022 - 3:00pm Abstract: In this talk, we describe the classical magneto-static approach to the theory of type-I superconductors. The magnetic field and the current in type-I superconductors are related by the London equations and tend to decay exponentially inside the superconducting material with support of the fields contained primarily in O(λL) neighborhood of the superconductor. We present a Debye source based integral representation for the numerical solution of the London equations, and demonstrate the efficacy of our approach for moderate values of λL on complex three dimensional geometries. However, for typical materials λL∼O(1e−7), which makes the PDE and integral equation increasingly difficult to solve in the limit λL→0 due to the presence of two different length scales in the problem. We derive a limiting PDE and a corresponding integral equation, and show that the solutions of this limiting PDE and integral equations are O(λL) accurate as compared to the corresponding solutions of the London equations and the Debye source integral equations respectively. We demonstrate the effectiveness of this asymptotic approach both in terms of speed and accuracy through several numerical examples.

09/19/2022 - 4:00pm For a convex cocompact Kleinian group $\Gamma <\rm{SO}(n,1)$, Sullivan (around 1985) established a fundamental relation among the critical exponent, the bottom of the L^2-spectrum of the hyperbolic manifold $\Gamma\backslash {\mathbb H}^n$, the quasi-regular representation $L^2(\Gamma\backslash G)$ and the Hausdorff dimension of the limit set. We consider a higher rank analogue of this relation. For self-joinings of convex cocompact Kleinian groups (or more generally for any Anosov subgroup of a product of rank one simple algebraic groups), we discover a surprising fact that they satisfy a similar relation as convex cocompact groups with “small” critical exponents. This talk is based on joint works with Dongryul Kim and Yair Minsky, and with Sam Edwards in different parts. Location:

09/19/2022 - 4:30pm The talk is based on the joint paper with Iva Halacheva, Joel Kamnitzer, and Alex Weekes https://arxiv.org/abs/1708.05105 . Solutions of the algebraic Bethe ansatz for quantum magnet chains are, generally, multivalued functions of the parameters of the integrable system. I will explain how to compute some monodromies of solutions of Bethe ansatz for the Gaudin magnet chain assigned to a semisimple finite-dimensional Lie algebra g in terms of Kashiwara crystals (which are combinatorial objects modeling finite-dimensional representations of g). Namely, the Bethe eigenvectors in the Gaudin model can be regarded as a covering of the Deligne-Mumford moduli space of stable rational curves, which is unramified over the real locus of the Deligne-Mumford space. The monodromy action of the fundamental group of the real Deligne-Mumford space (called cactus group) on the eigenvectors is naturally equivalent to the action of the same group by commutors (i.e. combinatorial analog of a braiding) on a tensor product of Kashiwara crystals.
