12/05/23	Seminario	14:30	15:30	1201 Dal Passo	Thomas WEBER	Università di Torino	Algebra & Representation Theory Seminar (ARTS) "Noncommutative differential geometry with Hopf algebra symmetry" Abstract While in classical differential geometry one is given a unique differential structure, the de Rham calculus, such a canonical choice does not exist in noncommutative geometry. Moreover, while the de Rham differential is equivariant with respect to a given Lie group action, a noncommutative calculus might not be compatible with a corresponding Hopf algebra symmetry. We give a gentle introduction to noncommutative differential geometry, reviewing seminal work of Woronowicz (covariant calculi on Hopf algebras) and Hermisson (covariant calculi on quantum homogeneous spaces). The latter invokes the notion of faithful flatness and Takeuchi/Schneider equivalence. Afterwards we discuss an original construction of a canonical equivariant calculus for algebras in symmetric monoidal categories, with main examples including algebras with (co)triangular Hopf algebra symmetry, particularly Drinfel’d twisted (star product) algebras. The approach relies on and is essentially dual to the concept of ‘braided derivations’ and we show that the corresponding braided Gerstenhaber algebra of multi-vector fields combines with the noncommutative calculus, forming a braided Cartan calculus. If time permits we illustrate how to formulate Riemannian geometry in this framework, proving that for every equivariant braided metric there is a unique quantum Levi-Civita connection. The second half of the talk is based on the thesis of the speaker.

This is the analogous in H^n x R of a result in R^3 by A. Ros and H. Rosenberg. The proof is based on geometric and analytic methods : from one side the constant mean curvature equation is a quasilinear elliptic PDE on manifolds, to the other the specific geometry of the ambient space produces some peculiar phenomena. This talk is based on a joint work with Barbara Nelli. NB:This talk is part of the activity of the MIUR Excellence Department Project MATH@TOV CUP E83C18000100006

28/04/23	Seminario	14:30	15:30	1201 Dal Passo	Ernesto SPINELLI	"Sapienza" Università di Roma	Algebra & Representation Theory Seminar (ARTS) "Hartley's Conjecture and development arising" Abstract In the 80s Bryan Hartley conjectured that if the unit group a torsion group algebra FG satisfies a group identity, then FG satisfies a polynomial identity. In this talk we aim to review the most relevant results that arose from its solution and to discuss some recent developments concerning group identities for the set of symmetric units of FG.
20/04/23	Seminario	17:00	18:00	1201 Dal Passo	Stefano Luzzatto	ICTP	Existence and non-existence of Physical Measures for doubly intermittent interval maps Abstract We introduce a class of one-dimensional full branch maps which may admit up to two neutral fixed points as well as critical points and/or singularities with unbounded derivative. We give a complete classification of the possible physical measures which may appear (or not), study some other statistical properties, and show that different behaviour can be quite intermingled in parameter space. This is joint work with Douglas Coates and Muhammad Mubarak.
20/04/23	Seminario	16:00	17:00	1201 Dal Passo	Hamza Ounesli	SISSA	Existence of invariant measures for circle expanding maps of low regularity Abstract It is well known that uniformly expanding circle maps whose derivative is Holder continuous have a unique ergodic invariant probability measure absolutely continuous with respect to Lebesgue. This result was extended by Fan and Jiang in 2001 to maps whose derivative is Dini-integrable. However, there exist counterexamples, both to the existence and to the uniqueness, for C^1 maps for which the derivative is less regular. We show that nevertheless, for any given modulus of continuity, there is a C^1 uniformly expanding map of the circle whose derivative has that modulus of continuity and has an invariant probability measure equivalent to Lebesgue.
14/04/23	Seminario	16:00	17:00	1201 Dal Passo	Filippo VIVIANI	Università di Roma "Tor Vergata"	Algebra & Representation Theory Seminar (ARTS) "On the Picard group of the stack of G-bundles on families of curves" Abstract Given a family of smooth projective curves and an arbitrary connected linear algebraic group G, we investigate the Picard group of the stack of relative G-bundles on the family. This is a joint work with Roberto Fringuelli.
14/04/23	Seminario	14:30	15:30	1201 Dal Passo	Ilaria DAMIANI	Università di Roma "Tor Vergata"	Algebra & Representation Theory Seminar (ARTS) "Quantum affine algebras: comparing two coproducts" Abstract The quantum affine algebras U_q are Hopf algebras with the coproduct Δ defined by Drinfeld and Jimbo; but they have also a "coproduct" Δ_v with values in a completion of U_q ⊗ U_q , introduced by Drinfeld for quantm affinizations. While the relation between Δ and the action of the braid group (and also of the weight lattice, which is a subgroup of the braid group) is complicated and involves the R-matrix, Δ_v is by construction equivariant with respect to the action of the weight lattice. In this talk I will show that Δ_v can be obtained as "equivariant limit" of Δ .
13/04/23	Seminario	16:00	17:00	1101 D'Antoni	Elias Rego	Shenzhen	On the shadowableness of singular flows Abstract The shadowing property is a landmark of the dynamical systems theory which is deeply related to stability phenomena. Hyperbolicity is a famous source of systems with the shadowing property. Nevertheless, the shadowing property does not hold for systems beyond the hyperbolic ones. Indeed, the Lorenz attractor is a paradigmatic example of non-hyperbolic flow which reassembles several properties of the hyperbolic ones, although it does not satisfy the shadowing property, as it was showed by M. Komuro. Several years later L. Wen and X. Wen extended Komuro's results and proved that a sectional hyperbolic set does not satisfy the shadowing property, unless it is hyperbolic. In this talk, we will push further this discussion and ask whether the non-shadowableness of singular flows is due to the sectional hyperbolicity or it is, in fact, a consequence of existence of attached singulaties. This is a joint work with A. Arbieto, A Lopez and Y. Sanchez.
05/04/23	Seminario	14:00	15:00	1101 D'Antoni	Bernardo Carvalho	Federal University of Minas Gerais / Tor Vergata / UFMG	Chaos theory and hyperbolic dynamics Abstract In this talk I will discuss relations between chaotic and hyperbolic systems. More specifically, how we can obtain known results from hyperbolic dynamics using stronger notions of sensitivity to initial conditions. I will briefly explain expansiveness, topological hyperbolicity, cw-expansiveness, cw-hyperbolicity and first-time sensitivity.
