Fall 2015 – Seminar Series: Mathematics and Physics of Calogero-Moser-Sutherland systems.
Organized by: Nikita Nekrasov, Alexander Turbiner and Alexander Abanov. Timing: Spring 2015/Fall 2015 Abstract: Calogero-Moser-Sutherland many-body systems arose originally in the 1970’s simultaneously in Nuclear Physics, Mathematical Physics and Solid State Physics. Since then they were found in some incarnations in diverse branches of physics and mathematics such as the theory of quantum Hall effect, […]

Exponential Integrals Part II: Seminar by Maxim Kontsevich
Title: Exponential Integrals Speaker: Maxim Kontsevich Date: Tuesady, August 19, 2014 Time: 2:00pm-3:15pm Place: Auditorium 103, Simons Center [box, type=”download”]Watch the video.[/box] Abstract: I’ll discuss general properties of integrals of exponents of polynomial functions on complex algebraic varieties, and infinite-dimensional generalizations. In particular, I’ll give a new interpretation of the solution of Hitchin equation as semi-infinite cohomology.
