Wave propagation in optical lattices with honeycomb background, termed Photonic Graphene, is investigated. A tight binding approximation leads to a coupled mode system. In bulk media a nonlinear Dirac type system is obtained which describes conical, elliptical and straight-line diffraction. With rapidly varying helical waveguides linear and nonl...

There is a long story of the role nonlinearity plays in optics and photonics. From the early experiments in second harmonic generation to the demonstration of optical solitons in fiber optics, the field continues to evolve in several directions. Rather than presenting well developed ideas, in this seminar I will attempt to provide examples mostl...
Mean field type models describing the limiting behavior of stochastic differential game problems as the number of players tends to infinity, have been recently introduced by J-M. Lasry and P-L. Lions. They may lead to systems of evolutive partial differential equations coupling a forward Bellman equation and a backward Fokker-Planck equation. Th...

At the heart of every local search procedure is a directed graph on candidate solutions (states) such that every unsatisfying state has at least one outgoing arc. In randomized local search the hope is that a random walk on the graph reaches a satisfying state (sink) quickly. We give a general algorithmic local lemma by establishing a sufficient...

The Gromov-Hausdorff distance between two metric spaces is an important tool in geometry, but it is difficult to compute. For example, the Gromov-Hausdorff distance between unit spheres of different dimensions is unknown in nearly all cases. I will introduce recent work by Lim, Mémoli, and Smith that finds the exact Gromov-Hausdorff distances be...

Suppose ball-shaped sensors wander in a bounded domain. A sensor doesn't know its location but does know when it overlaps a nearby sensor. We say that an evasion path exists in this sensor network if a moving intruder can avoid detection.

Consider a Vietoris-Rips complex of the circle with the geodesic metric. This simplicial complex has an infinite number of vertices, one for each point in the circle.
