Fundamentals of Infinite Dimensional Representation

Pitman Monographs and Surveys in Pure and
Applied Mathematics,vol.114
Description
Infinite dimensional representation theory
blossomed in the
latter half of the twentieth century, developing
in part with
quantum mechanics and
becoming one of the mainstays of modern mathematics.
Fundamentals
of Infinite Dimensional Representation Theory
provides an
accessible account of
the topics in analytic group representation
theory and operator
algebras from which much of the subject has
evolved. It presents
new and old results in
a coherent and natural manner and studies
a number of tools
useful in various areas of this diversely
applied subject.
From Borel spaces and selection theorems
to Mackey's theory of
induction, measures on homogeneous spaces,
and the theory of left
Hilbert algebras,
the author's self-contained treatment allows
readers to choose
from a wide variety of topics and pursue
them independently
according to their needs.
Beyond serving as both a general reference
and as a text for
those requiring a background in group-operator
algebra
representation theory, for careful
readers, this monograph helps reveal not
only the subject's
utility, but also its inherent beauty.
Audience
Graduate students and researchers in representation
theory,
harmonic analysis, and operator algebras;
Mathematicians and
theoretical physicists
interested in representation theory

Geometrie d'Arakelov des VarietesToriques
et Fibresen Droites Integrables
Description
The author's aim in this paper is twofold.
First, he extends the
Gillet-SoulEarithmetic intersection theory
so that it
encompasses integrable line bundles. In so
doing, he
uses as an essential tool a product theory
for positive currents
developed by Bedford-Taylor and Demailly.
Secondly, he applies
this construction to smooth projective
toric varieties. In this framework, he proves,
among other
things, that canonical heights of hypersurfaces
are related to
their Mahler measure. As a consequence of
the
results, the author proves an arithmetic
analogue of the
Bernstein-Kushnirenko theorem. Text is in
French.

Description
Following the format of the seminar, one
finds here fifteen
survey lectures on the following topics of
current interest: the
theory of Lie groups and algebras, algebraic geometry, p-adic arithmetical algebraic geometry,
combinatorial geometry, differential geometry,
partial differential equations, probabilities,
celestial mechanics, and
quantum computing. Four articles are in English,
the rest are in
French.

Large Deviations for Three Dimensional Supercritical
Percolation
Description
In this volume, the author considers Bernoulli
bond percolation
on the three dimensional cubic lattice in
the supercritical
regime. He proves a large deviation principle
for
the rescaled configuration. From that, a
picture of the Wulff
crystal of the model emerges.

Bose-Einstein and interferometry bridge particle
physics and
quantum physics and are currently an area
of strong interest in
high-energy
physics. This work demonstrates how and why
the phenomena can be
used to determine the size and lifetime of
particle sources.
