The exact solution of the 2D classical and 1D quantum Ising models via the Kac-Ward method

Onsager proposed a closed-form expression for the free energy of the 2D classical Ising model in 1944. In 1952, Kac and Ward introduced an alternative elegant method of combinatorial nature. Kager, Li...

Sulla congettura del cono relativa per famiglie di varietà olomorfe simplettiche.

Nel seminario presenterò un lavoro in collaborazione con A. Höring e Z. Xie nel quale studiamo la congettura del cono relativa per famiglie di varietà K-triviali con irregolarità nulla. Dopo aver intr...

Embracing AI and Formalization: Experimenting with Tomorrow's Mathematical Tools

You've heard the buzz: AI and formalization will revolutionize mathematics. Computers will soon surpass humans in solving olympiad-style problems. Humans will transition from proving research-level t...

The Surface Diffusion Flow: long time behavior and stability

In a recent paper, we study the long--time behavior and the stability of the surface diffusion flow of smooth hypersurfaces in the flat torus \(\mathbb T^n\). According to this flow, smooth hypersurfa...

Torsion obstructions to positive scalar curvature

In 1998, Thomas Schick discovered a purely homological obstruction to the existence of positive scalar curvature metrics on oriented closed smooth manifolds in terms of torality properties of their fu...

Compactness of Palais-Smale sequences with controlled Morse Index for a Liouville type functional

We will prove that Palais-Smale sequences for Liouville type functionals on closed surfaces are precompact whenever they satisfy a bound on their Morse index. As a byproduct, we will obtain a new proo...

Normal form and dynamics of the Kirchhoff equation

In this talk I will present some recent results on the Kirchhoff equation of nonlinear elasticity, describing transversal oscillations of strings and plates, with periodic boundary conditions. We are...
