Eugene Mukhin (Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis)
Algebraic Bethe Ansatz
Abstract: The method of algebraic Bethe Ansatz can be used to connect the Representation Theory (over complex numbers) to many areas of mathematics, including Integrable Systems (the KDV and KP hierarchies, the Calogero-Moser system), Special Functions (orthogonal and multiple orthogonal polynomials, hypergeometric solutions of the KZ equations), Algebraic Geometry (Schubert Calculus, the B. and M. Shapiro conjecture), Combinatorics (Kostka polynomials, Capelli identities, crystalls). These relations produce a number of difficult and important theorems. I will survey some recent results in this area. (Based on a joint project with V. Tarasov and A. Varchenko.)

Shichang Song (UIUC Math)
Sums and Products, V
Abstract: This week we'll start looking at Udi Hrushovski's paper "Stable group theory and approximate subgroups". This first talk will be introductory, with discussion of some consequences of the main theorem of the paper. In the arXiv, this is paper 0909.2190v2 [math.LO]
