8.10.<\/td>Moritz Firsching (FU Berlin)<\/a> - Applications of nonlinear optimization and integer relations algorithms in computational geometry<\/em>
\n[dropdown_box expand_text=\"abstract<\/em>\" show_more=\"show<\/em>\" show_less=\"hide<\/em>\" start=\"hide\"] Given two 3-dimensional polyhedra $P$ and $Q$, we can ask for the largest
\npolyhedron similar to $Q$ that is contained in $P$. Taking $P$ and $Q$ to be one
\nof the 5 regular polyhedra we obtain 20 non-trivial pairs of polyhedra.
\nH.T.Croft found the solution to this question in 14 out of these 20
\ncases in 1980. We show how to solve the remaining cases by a combination
\nof two techniques. First we calculate solutions numerically using
\nquadratic optimization. Secondly we use integer relations algorithms to
\nfind exact algebraic solution to the resulting systems of equations.
\nIt is shown how similar methods can be used in a variety of problems
\nfrom discrete geometry. [\/dropdown_box]<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n[dropdown_box expand_text=\"abstract<\/em>\" show_more=\"show<\/em>\" show_less=\"hide<\/em>\" start=\"hide\"] For more than forty years, expander graphs have been playing an important role in many areas of mathematics, especially in combinatorics and theoretical computer science. In recent years, there is an increasing interest in high-dimensional generalizations of expansion, as well. After introducing the notion of $\\mathbb{F}_2$-coboundary expansion for simplicial complexes, we will discuss the key ideas of a paper by Lubotzky and Meshulam<\/a>, in which the authors establish the existence of an infinite family of 2-dimensional expanders with bounded edge degree.

30.4.<\/td>Mathieu Dutour Sikiric<\/a> (Rudjer Boskovi\u0107 Institute) - Polytopes, Polyhedral tessellations, cohomology, Hecke operators and modular forms.<\/em>
\n[dropdown_box expand_text=\"abstract<\/em>\" show_more=\"show<\/em>\" show_less=\"hide<\/em>\" start=\"hide\"] The computation of modular forms is a major problem in number theory. Here, we propose to consider the space of modular as a cohomology group and to compute it with polyhedral methods.
\nHenceforth, our emphasis is on presenting practical techniques for computing cohomology groups of $\\mathrm{GL}_n(\\mathbb{Z})$ and their relatives. This will include perfect forms, polyhedral tesselations and how this is translated in terms of $G$-modules. Our general aim is to establish some link between disparate subjects that are usually explained separately and to be as understandable as possible.[\/dropdown_box]<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
7.5.<\/td>May Szedl\u00e1k<\/a> (ETH Z\u00fcrich) - Higher Dimensional Discrete Cheeger Inequalities<\/em>
\n[dropdown_box expand_text=\"abstract<\/em>\" show_more=\"show<\/em>\" show_less=\"hide<\/em>\" start=\"hide\"] For graphs there exists a strong connection between spectral expansion and edge expansion. This is expressed, e.g., by the Cheeger inequality, which states that $\\lambda(G) \\leq h(G)$, where $\\lambda(G)$ is the second smallest eigenvalue of the Laplacian of $G$ and $h(G)$ the Cheeger constant measuring the edge expansion of $G$. We are interested in generalizations of expansion properties to finite simplicial complexes of higher dimension. Whereas for simplicial complexes, higher dimensional Laplacians were introduced already in 1945 by Eckmann, the generalization of edge expansion is not straightforward. Recently, a topologically motivated notion analogous to edge expansion was introduced by Gromov and independently by Linial, Meshulam and Wallach and by Newman and Rabinovich. It is known that for this generalization there is no higher dimensional analogue of the lower bound of the Cheeger inequality. A different, combinatorially motivated generalization of the Cheeger constant, denoted by $h(X),$ was studied by Parzanchevski, Rosenthal and Tessler. They showed that indeed $\\lambda(X) \\leq h(X)$, where $\\lambda(X)$ is the smallest non-trivial eigenvalue of the Laplacian, for the case of $k$-dimensional simplicial complexes $X$ with complete $(k-1)$-skeleton. Whether this inequality also holds for k-dimensional complexes with non-complete $(k-1)$-skeleton has been an open question. We give two different strengthenings of the inequality for arbitrary complexes.[\/dropdown_box]<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\nRaman Sanyal - Relative Upper Bound Theorems <\/em>
\n[dropdown_box expand_text=\"abstract<\/em>\" show_more=\"show<\/em>\" show_less=\"hide<\/em>\" start=\"hide\"]The Upper Bound Theorem, conjectured by Motzkin and proved by McMullen, is one of the cornerstones of discrete geometry: Neighborly simplicial polytopes maximize the number of k-dimensional faces among all d-dimensional convex polytopes with a fixed number of vertices. Stanley vastly generalized the Upper Bound Theorem by showing that it even holds for general triangulations of spheres (and beyond). In this talk I will present a generalization of Stanley's approach that yields an algebraic framework for treating relative upper bound problems. As showcases I will present solutions to combinatorial isometric problems and an Upper Bound Theorem for Minkowski sums. The talk will be a scenic tour from geometry to algebra and back. This is joint work with Karim Adiprasito (IHES).[\/dropdown_box]<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n[dropdown_box expand_text=\"abstract<\/em>\" show_more=\"show<\/em>\" show_less=\"hide<\/em>\" start=\"hide\"] Let $M_n$ be the maximum surface measure of a subset of the $n$-dimensional unit sphere not containing a pair of orthogonal vectors. A 1974 conjecture of H.S. Witsenhausen states that the extremal configuration is given by two diametrically opposite spherical caps of equal size. In the same article, Witsenhausen proves $M_n \\le 1\/n$. A result of A.M. Raigoroskii from 1999 gives exponentially decreasing upper bounds for $M_n$ via a Frank-Wilson type approach. However for $n=3$, the original $1\/3$ bound of Witsenhausen is the best known. In this talk we outline a proof that $M_3$ is strictly less than $1\/3$. This is joint work with Oleg Pikhurko.[\/dropdown_box]<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

15.1.2014 <\/td>Timo de Wolff<\/a> (Saarbr\u00fccken) - Amoebas, Nonnegative Polynomials and Sums of Squares Supported on Circuits<\/em>
\n[dropdown_box expand_text=\"abstract<\/em>\" show_more=\"show<\/em>\" show_less=\"hide<\/em>\" start=\"hide\"] We completely characterize sections of the cones of nonnegative polynomials, convex polynomials and sums of squares with polynomials supported on circuits \u2013 a genuine class of sparse polynomials. In particular, nonnegativity is characterized by an invariant, which can be immediately derived from the initial polynomial. Based on these results, we obtain a completely new class of nonnegativity certificates independent from sums of squares certificates. Furthermore, nonnegativity of such polynomials f coincides with solidness of the amoeba of f, i.e., the Log-absolute-value image of the variety of f. To the best of our knowledge this is the first connection established between amoeba theory and nonnegativity of polynomials. These results generalize earlier works both in amoeba theory and real algebraic geometry by Fidalgo, Kovacec, Reznick, Theobald and myself. This talk is based on work in progress joint with Sadik Iliman.[\/dropdown_box]<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
22.1.2014<\/td>Oliver Schaudt<\/a> (K\u00f6ln) - Frankl's conjecture<\/em>
\n[dropdown_box expand_text=\"abstract<\/em>\" show_more=\"show<\/em>\" show_less=\"hide<\/em>\" start=\"hide\"] Frankl's conjecture (1979) says that in a finite family of sets, closed under union, there is an element contained in at least half of the sets. Although simple-sounding, the conjecture is considered as one of the tough problems in combinatorics. In this talk I will sketch the history of the conjecture and the most successful approaches so far. Joint work with Henning Bruhn, Pierre Charbit, and Jan-Arne Telle.[\/dropdown_box]<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
29.1.2014<\/td>Sjoerd Dirksen<\/a> (Hausdorff Center Bonn) - A Johnson-Lindenstrauss embedding for general data sets<\/em>
\n[dropdown_box expand_text=\"abstract<\/em>\" show_more=\"show<\/em>\" show_less=\"hide<\/em>\" start=\"hide\"] The Johnson-Lindenstrauss lemma says that one can embed a set of n points in a (high dimensional) Euclidean space into an m-dimensional space using a random map, while approximately preserving the distances between the points in the set. Surprisingly, the embedding dimension m does not depend on the original dimension of the data: it scales logarithmically in terms of the number of points. This result has found many applications, e.g. in nearest-neighbor search. In my talk I will present a generalization of the Johnson-Lindenstrauss lemma, which allows one to embed arbitrary data sets (i.e. also of infinite cardinality) in a low-dimensional space using a random map. The result unifies (and improves) several dimensionality reduction results for specific data sets in the literature, such as sets of sparse vectors, low rank matrices and smooth manifolds.[\/dropdown_box]<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
