The Brauer–Manin obstruction provides a powerful framework for explaining failures of the Hasse principle for rational points on algebraic varieties. While many known examples arise from the algebraic part of the Brauer group, comparatively few...

Since its inception in the early 2000s, compressive sensing has become a well-established paradigm for efficient signal recovery, with applications ranging from medical imaging to scientific computing. More recently, data-driven reconstruction...

Tensor triangular geometry associates a rich geometric structure, the spectrum, to a “nice” category where one can add, subtract and multiply objects. Examples include modules over a commutative ring and representations of a finite group. I’ll give...

Stoichiometric principles provide a rigorous, law-based backbone for building mechanistic models that are robust and empirically testable through conservation and physiological constraints. In this talk, I will introduce stoichiometric models that...

Latent Dirichlet Allocation and Text embeddings have revolutionized the use of text as data leading to vastly improved document clustering and retrieval and recommender systems by finding lower dimensional structure in the text. Furthermore, these...

We consider a magnetized plasma (in the case of a tokamak) where the density of ions $ n_0$ as well as the imposed vertical magnetic field $B_0$ dépend on the horizontal variable $x$. The linearized system of Euler-Maxwell équations (system of 10...
