We introduce different diffuse approximations of the Willmore energy and the corresponding gradient flows. In the case of well separated interfaces all these flows (formally) converge to the Willmore flow. However, if interfaces collide the different approximations show very different behavior. This will be discussed in view of the Gamma converg...

We present a distributed computation mechanism of persistent homology using cellular cosheaves. Our construction is an extension of the generalized Mayer-Vietoris principle to filtered spaces obtained via a sequence of spectral sequences. We discuss a general framework in which the distribution scheme can be adapted according to a user-specific ...

Angiogenesis, consisting in the formation of blood vessels from preexisting ones, is of crucial importance in pathological situations such as cancer and diabetes and is a therapeutic target for these two diseases. We have developed protein and sugar arrays probed by surface plasmon resonance (SPR) imaging to identify binding partners of proteins...
I will talk about a work in collaboration with G. During and C. Josserand on the long-time evolution of waves of a thin elastic plate in the limit of smalldeformation so that modes of oscillations interact weakly. According to thetheory of weak turbulence (successfully applied in the past to plasma, optics, and hydrodynamic waves), this nonlinea...

Kunyu wanguo quantu, or Map of the Ten Thousand Countries of the Earth, is the oldest surviving map in Chinese to show the Americas. It is a xylograph (wood block print) on six panels of fine native paper (made with bamboo fiber), each panel measuring approximately 608.33 mm x 1820 mm (2 feet by 5.75 feet). Li Zhizao (1565-1630), a Chinese mathe...

In recent research on the Riemann zeta function and the Riemann Hypothesis, it is important to calculate certain integrals involving the characteristic functions of N × N unitary matrices and to develop asymptotic expansions of these integrals as N †’ ˆž. In this talk, I will derive exact formulas for several of these integrals, verify that the...
