( MS Teams Link for the streaming )
In this talk, I will present some recent results concerning the existence of prescribed norm solutions in problems where the associated nonlinearity is the sum of two powers, one which is mass-subcritical and one mass-supercritical. This leads to consider a constrained variational problem presenting a so-called convex-concave geometry. The issues of existence, multiplicity and orbital stability of solutions will be addressed with a special emphasize on the cases where the mass-supercritical power is Sobolev critical.
The content of this talk is based on some jointed work with J. Jendrej, T. T. Le and N. Visciglia. |

"Birational sheets in linear algebraic groups"
- in streaming mode -
(see the instructions in the abstract)
The sheets of a variety X under the action of an algebraic group G are the irreducible components of subsets of elements of X with equidimensional G-orbits. For G complex connected reductive, the sheets for the adjoint action of G on its Lie algebra g were studied by Borho and Kraft in 1979. In 2016, Losev introduced finitely many subvarieties of g consisting of equidimensional orbits, called birational sheets: their definition is less immediate than the one of a sheet, but they enjoy better geometric and representation-theoretic properties and are central in Losev's suggestion of an Orbit method for semisimple Lie algebras.
In the opening part of the seminar we give a brief overview of sheets and recall some basics about Lusztig-Spaltenstein induction of conjugacy classes in terms of the so-called Springer generalized map and analyse its interplay with birationality. This will give the instruments to introduce Losev's birational sheets in g.
The main part is aimed at investigating analogues of birational sheets of conjugacy classes in G. To conclude, assuming that the derived subgroup of G is simply connected, we illustrate the main features of these varieties, comparing them with the objects defined by Losev.
Part of the talk is based on joint works with G. Carnovale and F. Esposito, and M. Costantini.

"Stokes phenomena, Poisson-Lie groups and quantum groups"
- in streaming mode -
(see the instructions in the abstract)
Let G be a complex reductive group, G* its dual Poisson-Lie group, and g the Lie algebra of G. G-valued Stokes phenomena were exploited by P. Boalch to linearise the Poisson structure on G*. I will explain how U( g)-valued Stokes phenomena can be used to give a purely transcendental construction of the quantum group Uh( g), and show that the semiclassical limit of this construction recovers Boalch's. The latter result is joint work with Xiaomeng Xu.

Billiards in subriemannian geometry
- in streaming mode -
(see the instructions in the abstract)
When one considers manifolds with boundary, billiard dynamics are the natural analogue of standard geodesic dynamics. Namely, instead of having geodesics escape at the boundary, we force them back into the manifold using the reflection law. In other dynamical settings, similar constructions are possible: In 2006, B. Khesin and S. Tabachnikov initiated the study of billiards in the semiriemannian setting, studying the integrability of various tables. In recent years we have also seen the appearance of several billiard setups of symplectic nature.
In this talk I will discuss recent work with L. Dahinden in which we look at billiards in subriemannian geometry. I will sketch how the reflection law arises naturally both from the control-theoretical and symplectic perspectives, how the reflection is problematic at tangency points between the distribution and the boundary of the table, and I will introduce some concrete examples. My ultimate goal will be to pose several intriguing open questions.

( MS Teams Link for the streaming )
We consider the bilinear Schrödinger equation with a discrete-spectrum free Hamiltonian and we present a general method for the approximate controllability based on Lie-algebraic control techniques applied to suitable finite dimensional approximation of the Galerkin-type. Under some regularity assumptions on the Hamiltonians and generic conditions on the controllability of the finite dimensional Galerkin approximations we show exact controllability in projection on an arbitrary given number of eigenstates.

Lo studio dei morfismi birazionali e quindi dei vari modelli proiettivi di una varietà algebrica è uno dei problemi centrali in Geometria Algebrica.
Il caso dei fibrati lineari è classicamente più trattato, quindi più standard rispetto a quello dei fibrati vettoriali, che presentano invece
numerose questioni aperte.
Alcune di queste questioni, presentate come obiettivi di ricerca nel Progetto PRIN 2015 "Geometry of Algebraic Varieties"
(PE1 2015EYPTSB_011, Resp. Scientifico F. Flamini), sono state trattate in alcuni recenti risultati (già pubblicati od in progress) ottenuti, nell'ambito del progetto menzionato, in collaborazione con Flaminio Flamini (Università di Roma Tor Vergata),
Samuel Boissiére e Alessandra Sarti (Université de Poitiers) e che sono oggetto di questo seminario.
Per partecipare al seminario on-line su Zoom, scrivere all'oratore Gilberto Bini entro VENERDI' 19 MARZO 2021 all'indirizzo di posta elettronica gilberto.bini@unipa.it |

"Lax type operator for W-algebras"
- in streaming mode -
(see the instructions in the abstract)
In 1985 Zamolodchikov constructed a "non-linear" extension of the Virasoro algebra known as W3 algebra. This is one of the first appearances of a rich class of algebraic structures, known as W-algebras, which are intimately related to physical theories with symmetries and revealed many applications in mathematics. In the talk I will review some basic facts about the general theory of W-algebras and provide a description using Lax operators. This approach shows the deep connection of the theory of W-algebras with Yangians and integrable Hamiltonian hierarchies of Lax type equations.
This is a joint work with A. De Sole and V. G. Kac.

"Ideals of subspace arrangements and representation theory"
- in streaming mode
(see the instructions in the abstract)
I will discuss results linking the study of certain highly symmetric arrangements of linear subspaces in affine space to representation theory, describing how to obtain qualitative information (e.g., is the arrangement Cohen-Macaulay?) and quantitative information (e.g., what is the Hilbert series of the ideal of the arrangement?) using techniques from the representation theory of Cherednik algebras.

The simplest erasing substitution
- in streaming mode -
(see the instructions in the abstract)
The symbolic action of a substitution on the binary expansion generates naturally an interval map. In case of erasing substitutions, the map is typically Baire-1 and not Darboux. As a model case, we consider what is arguably the simplest erasing substitution, mapping 0s to the empty word and 1s to 0 or 1 depending on the parity. The corresponding interval map is shown to have fractal properties (bounds are given on the Hausdorff dimension of the fibers) and to display rich dynamical behavior, including Devaney chaos, uniform distributional chaos of type 1, infinite topological entropy as well as the presence of cycles attracting in a finite time every rational.

( MS Teams Link for the streaming )
In this talk I will report on a refined blow up analysis of finite energy approximated solutions to the Nirenberg's problem on half spheres. The later consists of prescribing under minimal boundary conditions the scalar curvature to be a given function. In particular we give a precise location of blow up points and blow up rates. Such an analysis shows that the blow up picture of the Nirenberg's problem on half spheres is far more complicated that in the case of closed spheres. Indeed besides the combination of interior and boundary blow ups, there are "non simples blow ups" for subcritical solutions having zero or nonzero weak limit. The formation of such non simple blow ups is governed by a vortex problem, unveiling an unexpected connection with Euler equations in fluid dynamic and mean fields type equations in mathematical physics.
This is joint work with Mohamed Ben Ayed (Sfax University).
