6-7 July – Ludovic Tangpi: A probabilistic approach to the convergence of large population games to mean field games (Mini-Seminar Series)

Mean field games are infinite population idealizations of Nash equilibrium problems in symmetric, finite population games in the microscopic regime. They present enormous advantages, and their study has given rise to an imporant literature over the past decade with striking applications. Coming from AIMS South Africa,

1 July – Irit Dinur: P, NP, and Probabilistically Checkable Proofs

Dinur will talk about the PCP theorem and its many applications, and end by touching upon a surprising recent connection between PCPs and the so-called high-dimensional expanders, which are objects that come from pure math. The talk is also part of the Millennium Festival: https://die-7-grossten-abenteuer-der-mathematik.webflow.io

Celebrating Math

After too long a break, we invite you to celebrate Math with the MATH+ community. As part of the German-wide event series "The 7 Greatest Mathematical Adventures", we present a diverse program of talks and activities around the famous Millennium Prize Problem “P versus NP”.

3 June – Thomas McCormick: Why Should You Care About Submodularity?

McCormick will define submodularity and survey some of its applications in a variety of areas, and eventually outline what advantages it brings to the associated optimization problems. S. Thomas McCormick is the W.J. Van Dusen Professor of Management at the Sauder School of Business at

13 May – Maryna Viazovska: Sphere packings, universal optimality, and Fourier interpolation (Kovalevskaya Colloquium)

In this lecture, Viazovska will show that the E8 and Leech lattices minimize energy for a wide class of potential functions. This theorem implies recently proven optimality of E8 and Leech lattices as sphere packings and broadly generalizes it to long-range interactions. Maryna Viazovska obtained

29 April – Max von Kleist: Data science for COVID research and in policy design

In this talk, Max von Kleist will present approaches that utilize primary and secondary data of SARS-CoV-2 that allow to permanently monitor and assess the pandemic and that can support the choice of containment strategies. Max von Kleist currently heads the “Project Group 5: Systems
