Title Mean-field Gibbs measures: Sharp and optimal rates of convergence
Speaker, Affiliation Dr. Rishabh Gvalani, ETH Zürich

Location Y27 H 46
Abstract We study the invariant Gibbs measure of mean-field interacting diffusions and prove optimal global and local rates of convergence to its thermodynamic limit in the full sub-critical regime of temperatures \(T>T_c\) for a large class of potentials. Our proof relies on a non-asymptotic Sanov-type upper bound for the global rate (which is of independent interest itself) combined with an application of Stein's method for the local rate. We also apply these techniques to prove sharp exponential concentration inequalities for i.i.d empirical measures in negative Sobolev norms. This is joint work with Matías G. Delgadino (U. T. Austin).

Title Fermionic stochastic analysis
Speaker, Affiliation Dr. Luca Fresta, Universität Zürich
Date, Time 7 March 2024, 16:15-18:00
Location Y27 H 46
Abstract Ever since Osterwalder and Schrader's pioneering work, it has been established that Fermionic systems can be described using Grassmann variables and Grassmann measures. In my talk, I will delve into this perspective, elucidating fundamental stochastic analytical tools, such as Grassmann Brownian motion and non-commutative $L^{p}$ spaces, which allow for a more thorough stochastic analytical characterisation of Grassmann measures. To exemplify the utility of this approach, I will discuss the advancements achieved in describing some prototypical subcritical interacting Grassmann measures. Based on joint work with F. De Vecchi, M. Gordina and M. Gubinelli.

Location Y27 H 46
Abstract I will review the mathematical analysis behind two classes of new exciting materials: Twisted bilayer graphene (TBG) and twisted semiconductors (TMDs) with an emphasis on their mathematical properties and differences. If time permits I will discuss results on these models under disorder. Joint work with Maciej Zworski Izak Oltman Martin Vogel and Mengxuan Yang

Title Beliaev damping in Bose gas
Speaker, Affiliation Prof. Dr. Marcin Napiórkowski, University of Warsaw
Date, Time 28 March 2024, 16:15-18:00
Location Y27 H 46
Abstract According to the Bogoliubov theory, the low energy behaviour of the Bose gas at zero temperature can be described by non-interacting bosonic quasiparticles called phonons. In my talk I will explain how the damping rate of phonons at low momenta, the so-called Beliaev damping, can be computed with simple arguments involving an effective Friedrichs model for phonons.

Title Third order corrections to the ground state energy of a Bose gas in the Gross-Pitaevskii regime.
Speaker, Affiliation Cristina Caraci, Universität Zürich
Date, Time 11 April 2024, 16:15-18:00
Location Y27 H 46
Abstract We consider a system of N bosons confined in a unit box with periodic boundary conditions. We assume that the particles interact through a repulsive two-boxy potential with scattering length of order 1/N, i.e. the Gross-Pitaevskii regime. We establish a precise bound for the ground state energy E(N) of the system. While the leading contribution, of order N, to the energy has been known since the pioneering works of Lieb-Seiringer-Yngvason in the early 2000s, and the second order (of order one) corrections were more recently first determined by Boccato-Brennecke-Cenatiempo-Schlein, our estimate also resolves the next term in the asymptotic expansion of E(N), which is of the order (log N)/N, confirming Wu's predictions in 1959. Based on a joint work with Alessandro Olgiati, Diane Saint Aubin and Benjamin Schlein.

Title Zero-dispersion limit for the Benjamin-Ono Equation
Speaker, Affiliation Dr. Louise Gassot, CNRS IRMAR
Date, Time 25 April 2024, 16:15-18:00
Location Y27 H 46
Abstract We focus on the Benjamin-Ono equation on the line with a small dispersion parameter. The goal of this talk is to precisely describe the solution at all times when the dispersion parameter is small enough. This solution may exhibit locally rapid oscillations, which are a manifestation of a dispersive shock. The description involves the multivalued solution of the underlying Burgers equation, obtained by using the method of characteristics. This work is in collaboration with Elliot Blackstone, Patrick Gérard, and Peter Miller.

Title Asymptotic stability of traveling waves for one-dimensional nonlinear Schrodinger equations
Speaker, Affiliation Prof. Dr. Charles Collot, CY Cergy Paris Université
Date, Time 23 May 2024, 16:15-18:00
Location Y27 H 46
Abstract We consider one dimensional nonlinear Schrodinger equations around a traveling wave. We prove its asymptotic stability for general nonlinearities, under the hypotheses that the orbital stability condition of Grillakis-Shatah-Strauss is satisfied and that the linearized operator does not have a resonance and only has 0 as an eigenvalue. As a by-product of our approach, we show long-range scattering for the radiation remainder. Our proof combines for the first time modulation techniques and the study of space-time resonances. We rely on the use of the distorted Fourier transform, akin to the work of Buslaev and Perelman and, and of Krieger and Schlag, and on precise renormalizations, computations and estimates of space-time resonances to handle its interaction with the soliton. This is joint work with Pierre Germain.
