Speaker:Han Li 李涵Wesleyan UniversityHan Li's research interest lies in Lie groups, discrete subgroups, dynamics on homogenous spaces and their interactions with number theory and geometry. He received his PhD degree in Mathematics from Yale University in 2014. Prior to joining Wesleyan he spent an academic year as a postdoc at the University of Texas at Austin and MSRI Berkeley.TimeTues. & T...
PrerequisiteLie algebras, representations.AbstractI will start from the reminder of the representation theory of simple finite-dimensional Lie algebras. Then I will define the current algebras and some the most important representations of them. I will explain how are these modules related to some families of orthogonal polynomials, describe the structure of these modules
