This is just a note for \cite[Chapter$3{1/2}_+$]{gromov}. Maybe this note is obvious for a reader who knows metric geometry. I wish that someone study further in this direction.
There are versions of "calculus" in many settings, with various mixtures of algebra and analysis. In these informal notes we consider a few examples that suggest a lot of interesting questions.
This is a series of three lectures I gave at the Korea Institute of Advanced Study in June 2019 at a workshop about "Algebraic and Symplectic Aspects of Degenerations of Complex Surfaces". I focus on the symplectic aspects, in particular on…
Manifolds discovered by machine learning models provide a compact representation of the underlying data. Geodesics on these manifolds define locally length-minimising curves and provide a notion of distance, which are key for reduced-order…
This is a survey lecture note on the applications of Langlands functoriality which were obtained recently by some people at the Langalnds school. This lecture was delivered at the Department of Mathematics, Kyoto University, Japan on June…
This paper is based on talks delivered in summer 2008 at the Conference on Motives, QFT and Pseudodifferential Operators in Boston, and at the Trimester programme Geometry and Physics, Hausdorff Institute for Mathematics in Bonn The paper…
These are notes for the course CS-172 I first taught in the Fall 1986 at UC Berkeley and subsequently at Boston University. The goal was to introduce the undergraduates to basic concepts of Theory of Computation and to provoke their…
This note surveys some classical results and recent developments on the interplay between lower curvature bounds and the isoperimetric problem. It is based on mini-courses given at the European Doctorate School of Differential Geometry…
The aim of this paper is to present a didactical sequence that fosters the development of meanings related to fractions, conceived as numbers that can be placed on the number line. The sequence was carried out in various elementary school…
This chapter reviews some past and recent developments in shape comparison and analysis of curves based on the computation of intrinsic Riemannian metrics on the space of curves modulo shape-preserving transformations. We summarize the…
This is a collection of notes based on lectures given at IIT Madras in September 2019 and at IFT Madrid in November 2019. It is supposed to be a concise (and therefore not comprehensive) and pragmatic course on applied holography and…
Over the last year significant progress was made in the understanding of the computation of Feynman integrals using differential equations. These lectures give a review of these developments, while not assuming any prior knowledge of the…
The present notes are the expanded and polished version of three lectures given in Stanford, concerning the analytic and arithmetic properties of weight one modular forms. The author tried to write them in a style accessible to…
I give a brief, non-technical, historical perspective on numerical analysis and optimization. I also touch on emerging trends and future challenges. This content is based on the short presentation that I made at the opening ceremony of…
This article summarizes several analyses I discussed at Moriond and I attempt to maintain my speaking voice throughout. I extract several broad themes in the recent development of QCD,and emphasize how the latest results on jet physics…
These notes were delivered as a series of NIMROD lectures at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory by the author in February 1976 (RL-76-022). The purpose of these lectures was primarily two-fold: to discuss the classical theory of free point…
These lecture notes are an expanded write-up of my short lecture series "Noncommutative Resolutions" given to the MSRI Graduate Student Workshop "Noncommutative Algebraic Geometry" during June 2012. The notes include five chapters, an…
It is of course well known that the usual definitions of Riemann integration and Riemann integrals are equivalent to simpler definitions which can be expressed in terms of just one sequence of partitions, using dyadic intervals or dyadic…
The goal of this thesis is threefold: first, to provide a general semantic setting for reasoning about incremental computation. Second, to establish and clarify the connection between derivatives in the incremental sense and derivatives in…
These are expanded notes of a course on basics of quantum field theory for mathematicians given by the author at MIT.
