RATIONAL SIMPLE CONNECTEDNESS IN COMPLEX ALGEBRAIC GEOMETRY

#### Rational simple connectedness in complex algebraic geometry

The main goal of this course will be to study a very recent notion in complex algebraic geometry, which generalises rational connectedness: the rational simple connectedness. This notion has, at least conjecturally, striking applications to the existence of rational sections for rationally connected fibrations over surfaces. It is well known that rationally connected fibrations over curves have sections, but the problem becomes much more subtle over higher dimensional base: it is very easy to construct conic bundles over surfaces having no rational sections. Just recently de Jong and Starr introduced the notion of rational simple connectedness for polarised varieties, while looking for sufficient
conditions on the general fibre of a Fano fibration in order to guarantee the existence of a rational section. Rational simple connectedness is the algebraic analogue of simple connectedness in topology: one asks for rational connectedness of certain moduli spaces of rational curves of sufficiently high degree.

In this course I will discuss the following topics:

1. rational curves on Fano varieties;
2. rational simple connectedness of complete intersections;
3. rational simple connectedness of rational homogeneous varieties and Serre's conjecture II;
4. rational simple connectedness and higher Fano varieties.

Goal: understand the fundamentals of continuum mechanics through worked examples. Participants will tackle some typical problems of continuum mechanics, and will learn to implement a problem using the weak formulation into the COMSOL software and to discuss the solution.

Synopsis of lectures
1) Browse a model of nonlinear solid mechanics, from the implementation to the solution.
A first glance at the fundamentals of continuum mechanics: Kinematics, Constitutive, Balance laws.
Tell the difference between tensors: strain tensor versus stress tensor
Differential form (strong) versus Integral form (weak).

2) Material Versus Spatial description.

Pull back & push forward of scalar, vector and tensor fields.
Geometric elements; change of densities.

3) Solid mechanics versus Fluid mechanics
Kinematical constraints; isochoric motion.

INTRODUCTION TO EXPANSIONS IN NON-INTEGER BASES

#### Introduction to expansions in non-integer bases

1. This theory grew out of an example in a historical paper of A. R ?enyi in 1956,
illustrating the use of ergodic theory in investigating the frequency of digits, a problem going back to a famous theorem of Borel. Subsequent research revealed many hitherto hidden connections of his example to number theory, topology, fractals, symbolic dynamics and to probability. The theory got a new impetus with the discovery in 1990 of P. Erdo ?s and his collaborators of strange and unexpected properties of unique
expansions. This led to hundreds of papers in the past thirty years. We propose an introduction to this subject, which is still rich in open problems.

The plan of our course is the following:
1. (i)  Definition of expansions, examples illustrating the differences between integer and non-integer bases.
2. (ii)  Lexicographic characterizations.
3. (iii)  The number of expansions.
4. (iv)  Univoque bases.
5. (v)  Topological description of the set of numbers having a unique expansions.
6. (vi)  Hausdorff dimension of the preceding set.
7. (vii)  Multiple expansions.

APPLICATIONS OF FOURIER ANALYSIS IN THE THEORY AND CONTROL OF PDES

#### Applications of Fourier analysis in the theory and control of PDEs

Fourier analysis is historically strongly linked to the resolution of PDEs with the fundamental example of the heat equation that was initially introduced by Fourier himself. In this course, we will first give an introduction of the different concepts entering in the Fourier analysis.
Then, we will give a general framework based on Fourier analysis, to solve classical PDEs. We will consider as fundamental examples, the heat and the wave equations, and answer the question of existence and unicity of the solution in appropriate function spaces. The we will deal with more advanced topics. The first one is linked to the finding of
linearized solutions of the Vlasov equation that enter in the kinetic description of the time evolution of a plasma (a typical example is the so called Landau damping that was studied by Cédric Villani in the more difficult case of the non-linear equation). Another topic, is the use of Fourier series to solve some controllability problems. There, the main tool is to obtain generalizations of the Parseval equality that are called Ingham inequalities, which have their own interest.

AN INTRODUCTION TO CHEEGER'S ENERGY AND ANALYSIS IN METRIC MEASURE SPACES

#### An introduction to Cheeger\'s energy and Analysis in metric measure spaces

Many interesting objects, like the Dirichlet

$\frac{1}{2}{\int }_{{\mathbf{R}}^{n}}|\mathrm{\nabla }f{|}^{2}\mathrm{d}x$

energy or the heat equation
${\mathrm{\partial }}_{t}f=\mathrm{\Delta }f$
are defined using the Laplacian or the gradient: at first look, it seems impossible to define them on other spaces than ${\mathbf{R}}^{n}$ ${f R}^n$ .

However, recently the Dirichlet energy has been generalized to Cheeger's energy, which requires only functions defined on a metric space and a Borel measure to calculate the integrals. In this course, we try to give an introduction to Cheeger's energy: we shall give two different definition of Cheeger's energy and prove that they are equivalent. For the proof, we need to introduce the basic definitions and theorems of optimal transport, Wasserstein distance and gradient flows in metric spaces. If there is time, we are going to show a version of the theorem of Otto,  Kinderlehrer and Jordan, which says that the heat equation is the gradient flow of the entropy functional in the metric space of measures with the 2-Wasserstein distance.

GEOMETRY OF PROJECTIVE ALGEBRAIC VARIETIES EXAMPLES, PROBLEMS, EXERCISES

#### Geometry of projective algebraic varieties Examples, problems, exercises

Abstract:
The course is an introduction to some beautiful and connected examples, or constructions,
which are relevant in classical, and modern, projective algebraic geometry. The focus will
be on their classical origins and on their importance in current algebraic geometry.
A list of topics and examples to be chosen will be discussed with the students and fixed
according to their interest. This possibly includes: Cremona transformations in the space,
line geometry and Grassmannians, projective models of surfaces in P^3, hypersurfaces
of low degree and their unirationality, rationality problems, cubic hypersurfaces, classical
projective examples and hyperkahler varieties..
