He was President of the Saint Petersburg Society from 1998 to 2008. He is a member of European Academy of Sciences (since 2015), he was a member of Executive Committee of European Mathematical Society (1996-2000), Laureate of Humboldt Research Award - 2007 and an ICM invited speaker (1974 and 1994), Miller-professor (Berkeley, 1995) and Simons-professor (MSRI, 2008). His research interests include but are not limited to - infinite-dimensional groups and their Asymptotic Representation Theory; - Lie groups; - New methods of Representation Theory for finite symmetric groups; - Combinatorial Probability Theory and limit forms for configurations (the Vershik-Kerov theorem on limit forms of Young diagrams, Bratelli-Vershik diagrams, etc) ; - Universal objects in Combinatorics Geometry and Dynamical Systems; - Dynamical Systems and Ergodic Theory; - Non-holonomic Geometry and Mechanics; - Random processes, random walks and random matrices; - Optimization. Lecture 2 - The characteristic factors in dynamical systems Speaker: Prof. Ye Xiangdong, University of Science and Technology of China Time2020-06-30 21:00-22:00 Beijing time (16:00-17:00 St Petersburg time) Abstract It is an ideal situation if we can reduce a problem P stated for general ergodic or minimal systems to the same problem in their "simple factors". We will explain how one did so for the problem on the convergence of multiple ergodic averages in ergodic theory. Moreover, we will present a recent work by Glasner-Huang -Shao-Weiss-Ye on the similar problem in the topological setup. On the way to do so, we will address the parallels between topological dynamics and ergodic theory, and their applications to combinatoric number theory. Bio: Prof. Ye got his Ph. D. in Mechanics and Mathematics Department of Moscow State University in 1991, and then did postdoc work in ICTP during 1991-1993. He was a faculty of Mathematics School in USTC since 1993. He was selected as a member of the Chinese Academy Sinica in 2019. His research interests include topological dynamics, ergodic theory and combinatoric number theory. Lecture Series II - June 16th, 2020 （20:00-22:00 Beijing time or 15:00-17:00 St Petersburg time Lecture 1 - Multiple structures for quasilinear equations by the variational method Speaker: Alexander Nazarov, PDMI RAS and Math&Mech Faculty, St. Petersburg State University Time：2020-06-16 20:00-21:00 Beijing time (15:00-16:00 St Petersburg time) Abstract: We study entire bounded solutions to the equations of variational nature. The model example here is$\Delta u - u + u^3 = 0$in$\mathbb R^2$. Our approach is purely variational and is based on concentration arguments and symmetry considerations. This method allows us to construct in an unified way several types of solutions with various symmetries (radial, breather type, rectangular, triangular, hexagonal, etc.),both positive and sign-changing. It is also applicable for more general equations in any dimension. The talk is based on the joint paper Lerman L.M., Naryshkin P.E., Nazarov A.I., Abundance of entire solutions to nonlinear elliptic equations by the variational method, Nonlinear Analysis -- TMA. 190 (2020), DOI 10.1016/j.na.2019.111590, 1-21. Expiration Time：2025-07-31 23:59 Lecture 2 - Periodic and quasi-periodic solutions of 1-d Q-curvature equation. Speaker: Jiang Meiyue, School of Mathematical Sciences, Peking University Time：2020-06-16 21:00-22:00 Beijing time (16:00-17:00 St Petersburg time) Abstract（/upload/editor/file/20200609/09145940157.pdf）: Expiration Time：2025-07-31 23:59 Lecture Series I - June 2nd, 2020 （20:00-22:00 Beijing time or 15:00-17:00 St Petersburg time Lecture 1 - Spectral synthesis for systems of exponentials and reproducing kernels Speaker：Anton Baranov (Saint Petersburg State University) Time：2020-06-02 20:00-21:00 Beijing time (15:00-16:00 St Petersburg time) Abstract: Let$x_n$be a complete and minimal system of vectors in a Hilbert space$H$. We say that this system is hereditarily complete or admits spectral synthesis if any vector in$H$can be approximated in the norm by linear combinations of partial sums of the Fourier series with respect to$x_n$. It was a long-standing problem whether any complete and minimal system of exponentials in$L^2(-a,a)\$ admits spectral synthesis. Several years ago Yu. Belov, A. Borichev and myself gave a negative answer to this question which implies, in particular, that there exist non-harmonic Fourier series which do not admit a linear summation method. At the same time we showed that any exponential system admits the synthesis up to a one-dimensional defect. In the talk we will also discuss related problems for systems of reproducing kernels in Hilbert spaces of entire functions (such as Paley-Wiener or Fock).

Lecture 2 - On gauged linear sigma model and related problems

Speaker: Prof. Huijun Fan (Peking University)

Time：2020-06-02 21:00-22:00 Beijing time (16:00-17:00 St Petersburg time)

Abstract:

Gauged linear sigma model was proposed by Witten in the early of 90's to explain the mirror symmetry phenomenon and the CY/LG correspondence conjecture. In this lecture, I will firstly formulate the mathematical framework of the GLSM, and then describe an algebraic  way to construct the quantum invariants of GLSM in narrow case (for general gauge group) via quasimaps.
This was a joint work with Jarvis and Ruan. Finally I will report the recent progress in this field and related problems.
