A computational framework for large-scale dynamics: model reduction, data-driven modeling and optimal control

Abstract: This talk provides an overview of my research interests which rely on the theoretical and computational aspects of optimal control problems, with a particular emphasis on the Hamilton-J...

The Fröhlich polaron at strong coupling

Abstract: In this talk we will review some recent results on the Fröhlich polaron, which is a model for a charged particle coupled to a polarizable medium. We will especially focus on a conjecture due...

Some properties of Steklov eigenfunctions.

Abstract: I present some results concerning the number of critical points and the number of nodal domains of Steklov eigenfunctions. The results have been obtained in collaboration with Luca Battaglia...

Dalla Didattica Blended alla Didattica Digitale Integrata: sperimentazioni con studenti STEM

Abstract: Farò una veloce panoramica dei miei principali interessi di ricerca focalizzata sui seguenti temi:L’interdisciplinarità nella didattica della MatematicaL’uso delle tecnologie per l’inse...

Puzzling pyramidal molecules: solved problems that raise new questions

Abstract: The mere existence and the spectroscopic behavior of pyramidal molecules like ammonia have remained unsolved problems since the early developments of quantum mechanics. A possible solution c...

Classification of disordered insulators in 1D

Abstract: In this talk I will describe some of the mathematical aspects of disordered topological insulators. These are novel materials which insulate in their bulk but (may) conduct along their edge;...

Upper bounds on the energy of dilute gases of hard-sphere bosons

Abstract: In the last decades, since the first experimental realizations of Bose- Einstein condensates, the study of large bosonic systems has been a very active field of research both in physics...

Some Results on Thompson Groups, Their Unitary Representations, a Knot Construction by Jones, and on some Cuntz Algebras

Abstract: In 2014, Vaughan Jones introduced methods to construct unitary representations of Thomp- son groups F, T, V (from planar algebras or Cuntz algebras) and another to produce knots from th...

Metodi d'alto ordine, preservazione di strutture e riduzione dell'ordine del modello per equazioni alle derivate parziali iperboliche

Abstract: Le equazioni alle derivate parziali iperboliche descrivono numerosi fenomeni fisici e trovare soluzioni analitiche di questi problemi è spesso impossibile. Per questo dobbiamo ricorrere a me...

GKM-Theory for cyclic quiver Grassmannians

After recalling some background on Goresky-Kottwitz-MacPherson (GKM) version of the Localization Theorem for equivariant cohomology, and some of the applications of such a result to (equivariant) Schu...

4D/2D duality and representation theory

This talk is about the 4D/2D duality by Beem et al., a new connection between quantum field theory and representation theory discovered rather recently. It associates an algebraic object called VOA to...
