Abstract

Asymptotic properties of representations of classical groups can often be formulated in terms of the behavior of random Young diagrams, which can be considered as random two-dimensional landscapes. We will discuss the key asymptotic properties of such landscapes: convergence to limit shapes and universal local behavior, using a particular model (skew Howe duality) as an example.

Speaker Intro

Pavel Nikitin joined BIMSA in 2023. His research focuses primarily on asymptotic representation theory and integrable probability. He obtained his PhD from Saint-Petersburg State University, was a postdoc researcher in Institut de Mathematiques, Marseille, and a senior researcher in VNIIGas Institute, Moscow and Steklov Institute, Saint-Petersburg.

Member Seminar Intro

The BIMSA member seminar is a weekly event during which researchers engage in discussions about their extensive research interests, addressing a diverse audience that includes fellow researchers and all postdoctoral scholars within the institute. This forum provides a unique privilege and an invaluable opportunity for each research faculty member, serving as a speaker, to introduce their research field, promote the subject within the institute, and ignite the potential for future collaborations with other research groups within the institute.

The lecture format consists of a 30-minute colloquium-style presentation, thoughtfully tailored to be accessible to postdoctoral scholars and researchers from diverse disciplines within the institute. Following the presentation, a 15-minute discussion session is anticipated, involving active participation from postdocs representing various fields.

It is mandatory for all postdocs at the institute to actively participate in this event. The enthusiastic involvement of faculty members is greatly valued and will prove mutually beneficial for both the speaker and the junior audience.
