Abstract

This course will cover the geometric foundations of metaverse technologies, including the main concepts and theorems in algebraic topology, differential geometry, Riemann surface theory and optimal transportation theory. Then the computational methods for persistent homology, conformal parameterization, mesh generation, surface Ricci flow and the optimal transportation maps will be introduced. Their direct applications in computer graphics, computer vision, geometric modeling and AI will be explained as well.

The Geometric Satake Correspondence
The geometric Satake correspondence has played a central role in the geometric Langlands program. It is indispensable for the construction of global Langlands correspondences over globa function fields (by Vincent Lafforgue) and for the geometrization of the local Langlands correspondence over local fields (by Laurent Fargues and Peter Scholze). It is a categorical lifting of the classical Sata...
