These are notes from the 2003 C.I.M.E. summer school "symplectic 4-manifolds and algebraic surfaces". They cover the same material as the author's (by now ancient) Ph.D. thesis.

I am Joachim Jansen and this is my research summary, part of my application to the Doctoral Consortium at ICLP'14. I am a PhD student in the Knowledge Representation and Reasoning (KRR) research group, a subgroup of the Declarative…

Doctoral Thesis, year 2002, about Lie systems and applications in Physics and Control Theory. The text is in English. Advisor: Jos\'e F. Cari\~nena

These are notes of a graduate course on representations of non-compact semisimple Lie groups given by the author at MIT.

This is an expanded lecture note for "Masterclass on sofic groups and applications to operator algebras" (University of Copenhagen, 5-9 November 2012). It is about algebraic aspects of the Connes Embedding Conjecture. It contains new proofs…

In this article, following an insight of Kontsevich, we extend the famous Weil conjecture (as well as the strong form of the Tate conjecture) from the realm of algebraic geometry to the broad noncommutative setting of dg categories. As a…

The purpose of this paper is to make an introduction to univalent function theory for readers of any level, assuming only foundational knowledge in real and complex analysis. In particular, we state and proof (with details) important…

This paper shows how the Theorem of Residues (TR) and the Gelfand-Fuchs cocycle can be deduced in a simple way from the Weil Reciprocity Law (WRL). Indeed, if one understand WRL as the triviality of certain extension of groups, then TR is…

Je retracerai l'histoire des conjectures de Weil sur le nombre de solutions d'\'equations polynomiales dans un corps fini et quelques unes des approches qui ont \'et\'e propos\'ees pour les r\'esoudre. The Weil conjectures: origins,…

This note provides a chronological account of Fr\'echet distances, starting with Maurice Fr\'echet's 1906 doctoral thesis on distances in abstract sets and tracing the Fr\'echet distance between polygonal curves and its algorithmic…

This set of lecture notes is an expanded version of a mini-course the author gave in March of 2025 for the program ``Representation Theory \& Noncommutative Geometry" at the Institut Henri Poincar\'e, Paris. The goal is to provide a survey…

This is an extension and background to a talk I gave on 9 October 2013 to the Brown Graduate Student Seminar, called `A friendly intro to sieves with a look towards recent progress on the twin primes conjecture.' During the talk, I mention…

We extend the heuristic discussion in Senn (2008) on the bias from selective inference for the treatment selection problem (Dawid 1994), by deriving the closed-form expression for the selection bias. We illustrate the advantages of our…

Not only a review of Weintraub's Differential Forms: Theory and Practice but also a discussion of why differential forms should be taught to undergraduates and an overview of some of the other possible texts that could be used.

We compute numerically the dimensions of the graded quotients of the linearized Kashiwara-Vergne Lie algebra lkv in low weight, confirming a conjecture of Raphael-Schneps in those weights. The Lie algebra lkv appears in a chain of…

This is a survey on the subject of the title corresponding to three lectures I gave in June 2001 at the Workshop on Fourier Analysis and Convexity, at the Universita di Milano-Biccoca.

This is a survey article on the twisted dynamical zeta functions of Ruelle and Selberg and the Fried's conjecture. It is based on the mini-course: "Twisted Ruelle zeta function, complex-valued analytic torsion and the Fried's conjecture",…

These are the notes for a course on representations of quivers for second year students in Paderborn in summer 2007. My aim was to provide a basic introduction without using any advanced methods. It turns out that a good knowledge of linear…

This is an expanded version of my Shaw Prize Lecture delivered at the Chinese University of Hong Kong.

This is the original version of my Ph.D. thesis. The main results have been divided up between papers arXiv:2111.09784 and arXiv:2204.10924. This paper has been kept on the arXiv to preserve some proofs of elementary lemmas that will be…
