The goal of this seminar is to cover the fields of the mathematics of imaging in a very wide sense (including for instance signal processing, image processing, computer graphics, computer vision, various applications and connections with statistics and machine learning)
Cosmology is about understanding the origin and evolution of the universe and the formation of all structure within it — one of the most challenging intellectual projects undertaken by humanity. To make progress, we need the most powerful mathematical methods available: analytics to guide us through subtle theoretical issues, simulations to compute the detailed quantitative predictions of the theory, and statistical inference to confront these predictions with large cosmological data sets.
Constant improvements of lasers, cryogenics, electronics and nano-fabrication techniques enabled a new, bottom-up approach, where elementary quantum objects are manipulated individually and assembled into more and more complex systems. Thanks to the efforts of many experimental teams, including those of S. Haroche and D. J. Wineland who both received the Nobel Prize in 2012, motional states of trapped ions, internal states of atoms, light fields in optical cavities or mesoscopic currents in superconducting circuits can now be precisely controlled at the quantum level.
Model theory is a branch of mathematical logic which deals with the relationship between formal logical languages (e.g. first order logic, or variants such as continuous logic) and mathematical objects (e.g. groups, or Banach spaces). It analyses mathematical structures through the properties of the category of its definable sets.
Quantum Information Theory (QIT) is a rapidly developing field whose significance ranges from fundamental issues in the foundations of quantum theory to new state-of-the-art methods for secure transmission of information.
The main goal of this trimester is to give to researchers in combinatorics the opportunity to meet and work together. More precisely, we aim at gathering people from the three following wide themes:
La compréhension des mathématiques se construit de multiples façons. Parmi celles-ci, l'illustration accompagne la recherche et en est l'outil depuis qu'elle existe. Nous utilisons le terme « illustration » pour englober les nombreuses façons de donner une forme physique ou une expérience à une idée mathématique, y compris la visualisation par ordinateur, l'impression en 3D et la réalité virtuelle, entre autres.
