Abstract:The main goal of this course will be to analyze the structure of orbits of polynomial transformations of the affine space of dimension m, with a focus on invertible maps. A large array of techniques is now available, coming from basic Diophantine geometry, p-adic analysis, dynamical or arithmetic equidistribution theorem. I will focus on a small number of precise results that illustra...
Description: This course will give a brief introduction to random matrix theory. Some topics we plan to cover are: Wigner semicircle law, the moment method, the resolvent method, invariant ensembles, Wigner matrices, sample covariance matrices, bulk universality, edge universality, rigidity of eigenvalues, Dyson Brownian motion, Tracy-Widom law, and free probability.Prerequisite:Probability, S...
