Abstract:In this talk, I will talk about the joint work with Wen Chang, Bing Duan, and Chris Fraser on quantum affine algebras of type A and Grassmannian cluster algebras.Let g=sl_k and U_q(^g) the corresponding quantum affine algebra. Hernandez and Leclerc proved that there is an isomorphism Phi from the Grothendieck ring R_l^g of a certain subcategory C_l^g of finite dimensional U_q(^g)-modu...
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...
