Sz.-Nagy's dilation theorem

The Sz.-Nagy dilation theorem (proved by Béla Szőkefalvi-Nagy) states that every contraction T on a Hilbert space H has a unitary dilation U to a Hilbert space K, containing H, with Moreover, such a dilation is unique (up to unitary equivalence) when one assumes K is minimal, in the sense that the linear span of ∪nUnH is dense in K. When this minimality condition holds, U is called the minimal unitary dilation of T. (Wikipedia).

Dimitri Zvonkine - On two ELSV formulas

The ELSV formula (discovered by Ekedahl, Lando, Shapiro and Vainshtein) is an equality between two numbers. The first one is a Hurwitz number that can be defined as the number of factorizations of a given permutation into transpositions. The second is the integral of a characteristic class

Dimitri Zvonkine - Hurwitz numbers, the ELSV formula, and the topological recursion

We will use the example of Hurwitz numbers to make an introduction into the intersection theory of moduli spaces of curves and into the subject of topological recursion.

What is the Riemann Hypothesis?

This video provides a basic introduction to the Riemann Hypothesis based on the the superb book 'Prime Obsession' by John Derbyshire. Along the way I look at convergent and divergent series, Euler's famous solution to the Basel problem, and the Riemann-Zeta function. Analytic continuation

Z and t distributions part 1

We learned from the central limit theorem that a mean of a sample or difference between means of samples are just one of many, many others. All of these means or differences in means follow a distribution pattern.

Digression: THH of the integers (corrected)

In this video, we explain how to compute THH of the integers. In order to do this we compute it first relative to the element p and then use a spectral sequence to deduce the final result. This is a corrected version of the old video, in which I got the Hasse-squares at 13:10 and 24:20 w

Abstract: Aim of the lecture is to give an introduction to K3 surfaces, that are special algebraic surfaces with an extremely rich geometry. The most easy example of such a surface is the Fermat quartic in complex three-dimensional space. The name K3 was given by André Weil in 1958 in hono

Introduction to additive combinatorics lecture 10.8 --- A weak form of Freiman's theorem

In this short video I explain how the proof of Freiman's theorem for subsets of Z differs from the proof given earlier for subsets of F_p^N. The answer is not very much: the main differences are due to the fact that cyclic groups of prime order do not have lots of subgroups, so one has to
