Title：

A number theorist's adventures in the land of spectral theory

Abstract：

I will discuss some of the interactions between number theory and the spectral theory of the Laplacian. Some have very classical background, such as the connection with lattice point problems. Others are newer, including connections with Random Matrix Theory, the zeros of the Riemann zeta function, and the work of Maryam Mirzakhani on the moduli space of hyperbolic surfaces.

A Noether-Lefschetz type theorem for spectral varieties with applications
AbstractIn this talk, we will discuss spectral variety and related moduli spaces of Higgs pairs on surfaces. We will first introduce the geometry of moduli of Higgs pairs and the spectral varieties. Indeed, we will talk about the Noether-Lefschetz type problems and the Picard schemes of the spectral varieties. If time permits, the Picard group of generic (very general) spectral varieties and it...

The Carathéodory-Fejér Theorem and Spectral Analysis of Signals
Abstract：Spectral analysis of signals is a core component of modern information techniques. The rapid developments of radar detection and wireless communications have advanced its research from fast Fourier transform (FFT) in the 1960s to subspace methods emerging in the 1970s, and then to sparse and compressed sensing methods of this century. In this talk, we revisit the Carathéodory-Fejér Th...
