Model order reduction for parametric generalised EVPs

We look for approximate eigensolutions of the pencil $( A(\sigma),M)$ for several values of the $d$-dimensional parameter vector $\sigma$. We are interested in few of the smallest eigenvalues that lie in the spectral interval of interest $(0,\Lambda)$. Both matrices are assumed to be s.p.d for any admissible parameter vector. In addition, the matrix $A(\sigma)$ is assumed to be spectrally equivalent to an s.p.d. average matrix $\overline{A}$.
For this purpose we develop a Ritz method that uses the same subspace for any parameter value. The subspace is designed using the observation that any eigenvector can be split into two components. The first component belongs to an easily computable subspace. The second component is defined by a correction formula that is a $d+1$ dimensional analytic function. Accordingly, the Ritz space is defined using this splitting and polynomial interpolation of the second component.
We give estimates for the approximation error and illustrate the method by numerical examples. The advantage of our approach is that the analysis easily treats eigenvalue crossings that typically have posed technical challenges.

Bosonization of the critical Ising correlations
* Tuesday 19 November 2024, 10:15, M3 (M234)
I will explain an identity between scaling limits of the Ising correlations in arbitrary finitely connected planar domains, and correlations of a suitable version of a Gaussian free field, yielding explicit formulae for the former. The proof is based on (rigorously established) operator product expansions for the Ising and GFF correlation, and a limiting version of a classical identity between Szegö and Bergman kernel on Riemann surfaces. Joint work with Baran Bayraktaroglu, Tuomas Virtanen and Christian Webb.

Extracts from metric functional analysis
* Wednesday 20 November 2024, 10:15, M3 (M234)
We shall concentrate on metric compactification of Banach spaces, in order to highlight differences and similarities between metric and linear functional analysis.
We discuss weak convergences via metric functionals, indicate connections to invariant subspace problem, present a metric version of Eberlein-Shmulian theorem. As an example related to fixed point theorems we show a metric version of Markov-Kakutani theorem. The talk is based on discussions and work with Armando Gutiérrez.

A novel strong duality-based reformulation for trilevel infrastructure models in energy systems development
Monday 25 November 2024, 15:15, Riihi (Y225a)
Further information
We explore the class of trilevel equilibrium problems with a focus on energy-environmental applications and present a novel single-level reformulation for such problems, based on strong duality. To the best of our knowledge, only one alternative single-level reformulation for trilevel problems exists. This reformulation uses a representation of the bottom-level solution set, whereas we propose a reformulation based on strong duality. Our novel reformulation is compared to this existing formulation, discussing both model sizes and computational performance. In particular, we apply this trilevel framework to a power market model, exploring the possibilities of an international policymaker in reducing emissions of the system. Using the proposed approach, we are able to obtain globally optimal solutions for a five-node case study representing the Nordic countries and assess the impact of a carbon tax on the electricity production portfolio.

Ball Evans approximation problem: Recent progress and open problems
Wednesday 27 November 2024, 10:15, M3 (M234)
In this talk we give a short overview about the Ball-Evans approximation problem, i.e. about the approximation of Sobolev homeomorphism by a sequence of diffeomorphisms (or piecewise affine homeomorphisms) and we recall the motivation for this problem. We show some recent planar results and counterexamples in higher dimensions, and we give a number of open problems connected to this problem and related fields. We concentrate in detail on the joint result with A. Pratelli [1] about the approximation on planar W1,1-homeomorphisms by a sequence of piecewise affine homeomorphisms.

Seminar course (7.-17.1.): An introduction to Dirichlet's L-functions and a proof of Dirichlet's theorem of primes in arithmetic progressions
Tuesday 07 January 2025, 10:15, M3 (M234)
We will begin this course (MS-EV0030) by reviewing Euler's change of paradigm, with respect to Euclid, and his proof on infinitude of primes. Then, we will study the generalization made by Dirichlet, and will prove Dirichlet's theorem on arithmetic progression. Through the course we will learn about the development of L-functions, character theory and the beginning of the relation between Galois representations and certain complex functions.
There will be 5 sessions during 2 weeks. For students interested in credits: attendance gives 2 cr and more can be obtained (upon request) by completing further assignments. Sessions take place on Tue, Thu on the first week and Mon, Wed, Fri the second week, all at 10:15-12.

Unsupervised linear discrimination using skewness
Wednesday 12 February 2025, 10:15, M237
It is known that, in Gaussian two-group separation, the optimally discriminating projection direction can be estimated without any knowledge on the group labels. In this presentation, we (a) motivate this estimation problem, and (b) gather several unsupervised estimators based on skewness and derive their limiting distributions. As one of our main results, we show that all affine equivariant estimators of the optimal direction have proportional asymptotic covariance matrices, making their comparison straightforward. We use simulations to verify our results and to inspect the finite-sample behaviors of the estimators.
