The Kuramoto model is a system of ordinary differential equations for describingsynchronization phenomena defined as a coupled phase oscillators. In this talk, an infinite dimensional Kuramoto model is considered, and Kuramoto's conjecture on a bifurcation diagram of the system will be proved.A linear operator obtained from the infinite dimensio...

The Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (KP) equation is a two-dimensional dispersivewave equationwhich was proposed to study the stability of one soliton solution of theKdV equationunder the influence of weak transversal perturbations. It is well knowthat some closed-formsolutions can be obtained by function which have a Wronskian determinantform.It is of...

The 1963 work of Kervaire-Milnor on the classification of exotic spheres in terms of the stable homotopy groups of spheres left one unanswered question in dimensions congruent to two modulo four. Subsequent work by Brown-Peterson and Browder gave the answer in all dimensions that are not two less than a power of two. We solve the problem in all ...

This photograph shows a social worker giving clothing to a woman and man as a form of "unemployment relief." Faced with a flood of unemployed and impoverished clients, local welfare agencies often resorted to food and clothing assistance or exchanging work for food. This was particularly evident in the early years of the Great Depression, before...

Why Does the Past Matter? Towards a Social Science of the Past. The study of the past has long been relegated to the historiographical disciplines, e.g., archaeology and history. These fields will always be at the core of a contemporary study of the past. However, in this increasingly globalized contemporary world there is a growing need for the...

Approximate random k-colouring of a graph G=(V,E) is a very well studied problem in computer science, discrete mathematics and statistical physics. It amounts to constructing a k-colouring of G which is distributed close to Gibbs distribution in polynomial time. In this talk, we deal with the problem when the underlying graph is an instance of E...
