Book DetailsSéminaires et CongrèsVolume: 31; 2018; 136 ppMSC: Primary 14; 22; 37
This volume gathers the contributions of plenary speakers of the first congress of the French Mathematical Society, which took place in 2016 in Tours. Marie-Claude Arnaud explains the link between Hamiltonian dynamics and Lagrangian variational methods as a smooth introduction to Aubry-Mather's theory.
Sophie Grivaux, with Catalin Badea, discusses some classes of integers, namely Jamison and Kazhhan sets, in light of operator theory and harmonic analysis. Bertrand Toën, with Gabriele Vezzosi, presents a general approach for establishing Bloch's conductor formula, which is a conjectural formula describing how the topology in a family of algebraic varieties changes when the parameter is specialized to a critical value. Sébastien Gouëzel exploits all the richness of subadditivity properties and of horofunctions to describe the asymptotic behavior of random semi-contractions. Finally, Alexander Tsybakov, with Pierre Bellec and Guilaume Lecué, focuses on the performance of some least squares estimators with convex penalty and presents the main ideas and tools that have shown substantial improvements in recent years.
A publication of the Société Mathématique de France, Marseilles (SMF), distributed by the AMS in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico. Orders from other countries should be sent to the SMF. Members of the SMF receive a 30% discount from list.
