Abstract

Discrete subgroups of semisimple Lie groups arise in a variety of contexts, sometimes "in nature" as monodromy groups of families of algebraic manifolds, and other times in relation to geometric structures and associated dynamical systems. I will discuss a class of such discrete subgroups that arise from certain variations of Hodge structure and lead to Anosov representations, thus relating algebraic and dynamical situations. Among many consequences of these relations, I will explain Torelli theorems for certain families of Calabi-Yau manifolds (including the mirror quintic), uniformization results for domains of discontinuity of the associated discrete groups, and also a proof of a conjecture of Eskin, Kontsevich, Moller, and Zorich on Lyapunov exponents. The discrete groups of interest live inside the real linear symplectic group, and the domains of discontinuity are inside Lagrangian Grassmanians and other associated flag manifolds. The necessary context and background will be explained.


Speaker

Simion Filip receive his PhD in June 2016 from the University of Chicago under the supervision of Alex Eskin. He is interested in the connections between dynamical systems and algebraic geometry, in particular between Teichmüller dynamics and Hodge theory. His recent interests also involve K3 surfaces and their special geometric properties. Simion has been appointed as a Clay Research Fellow for a term of five years beginning 1 July 2016.

  • Kodaira-type and Bott-type vanishings via Hodge theory

    Abstract:I will first give a brief introduction to T. Mochizuki's Theory of twistor D-modules. Then, we use it to study Kodaira-type vanishings. In particular, we will generalize Saito vanishing, and give a Kawamata-Viehweg type statement. As an application, we will also prove a Bott-type Vanishing using M. Saito's mixed Hodge module

  • Equivariant Log-concavity and Equivariant Kahler Packages (or: Shadows of Hodge Theory)

    Abstract: This talk aims to advertise a pattern/phenomenon that has emerged in many different mathematical areas during the past decades but is not currently well-understood. I will begin with a broad overview of the Kahler packages (Poincare duality, Hard Lefschetz, and Hodge-Riemann relations) that appear in geometry, algebra, and combinatorics, from the classics of Lefschetz to the recent wo...
