Title: Interplay between Dirichlet and Loewner energies: cutting-welding
operations and foliations by Weil-Petersson quasicircles - Part 1
Abstract: The Loewner energy is a Mobius invariant deterministic quantity
attached to Jordan curves in the plane. One way in which it arises is as a
large deviations rate function for the Schramm-Loewner evolution with small
parameter. A curve has finite Loewner Energy if and only if it is a
Weil-Petersson quasicircle, a class of curves that in the last decades has
received significant attention by both physicists and mathematicians, but
only very recently by probabilists. The Loewner-Kufarev energy is a dual
quantity attached to certain continuous families of Jordan curves, which
arises in the context of large deviations of SLEs with large parameter.
We will survey recent joint works (and beyond) that describe the interplay
between these energies (and the Weil-Petersson quasicircles) with the usual
Dirichlet energy on the plane. The results are closely related to recent
ideas and developments in Random Conformal Geometry but proofs are purely
analytic.
In the first talk, we begin by presenting background material and a survey
of properties and characterisations of Weil-Petersson quasicircles. We then
discuss interactions between Weil-Petersson quasicircles with ambient
Dirichlet class functions via cutting and conformal welding operations as
well as interpretations in terms of "flow-lines". At the end we will
present a "dictionary" that relates these statements with ideas in Random
Conformal Geometry.
(15:00-16:00 UTC) Speaker: Yilin Wang (MIT)
Title: Interplay between Dirichlet and Loewner energies: cutting-welding
operations and foliations by Weil-Petersson quasicircles - Part 2
Abstract: The main topic of the second talk is the Loewner-Kufarev energy
and corresponding families of Weil-Petersson quasicircles. We will indicate
how to associate to such a foliation a (geometric) "winding function" on
the plane whose Dirichlet energy equals the (analytic) Loewner-Kufarev
energy. This duality entails several interesting results: for example, the
Loewner-Kufarev Energy is in fact reversible and we obtain a new
characterisation of Weil-Petersson quasicircles. We will end by discussing
further implications and open problems.

Titolo: Random resistor networks and Mott’s variable range hopping
Abstract: Random resistor networks allow to study electron transport
indisordered systems.
By means of stochastic homogenization one can characterize the
infinite volume effective
conductivity in terms of the homogenized matrix of suitable discrete
Poisson equations.
We will then focus on the low temperature behavior of the random
conductance model
and the Miller-Abrahams random resistor network. The latter models
the so-called Mott’s variable
range hopping, a fundamental transport mechanism in disordered solids
in the regime of strong
Anderson localization. We will discuss its percolative properties and
show how homogenization,
percolation and scaling arguments lead to Mott’s law.
(For the percolation part, the talk is based on joint works with H.A. Mimun).

Titolo: Competition processes on hyperbolic non-amenable graphs
Abstract: We consider two first-passage percolation processes, FPP_1
and FPP_\lambda, spreading with rates 1 and \lambda respectively, on
a graph G with bounded degree. FPP_1 starts from a single source,
while the initial configuration of FPP_\lambda consists of countably
many seeds distributed according to a product of iid Bernoulli random
variables of parameter \mu on the set of vertices. This model is known
as "First passage percolation in a hostile environment" (FPPHE), and
was introduced by Stauffer and Sidoravicius as an auxiliary model for
investigating a notoriously challenging model called Multiparticle
Diffusion Limited Aggregation. We consider several questions about
FPPHE, focusing on the case when G is a non-amenable hyperbolic graph.
This talk is based on joint works with Alexandre Stauffer.

Title: Node immunization in networks: a scalable searching algorithm based
on random rooted forests
26 FEBRUARY (Friday) - 14:30 zoom link: TBA
available on the webpage https://www.math.unipd.it/~bianchi/seminari/ )
Abstract:
We are interested in the so-called multiple-node immunization for complex
networks under attack of a viral agent. The latter is a hot topic in
network science and it consists of identifying and removing a set of nodes
of a given size in a graph to maximally impede the agent spread. Several
approaches have been proposed in the literature based on numerical and
theoretical insights on how classical models for virus spread (so-called
compartmental models) evolve on graphs.
Based on the stability analysis of these compartmental models, the maximal
eigenvalue of the adjacency matrix of the graph has been proposed as a
measure for how resilient the network is. Thus one of the most common
approaches for immunization consists in identifying the set of nodes of a
given cardinality, for which the reduced network, obtained by removing
these nodes, has minimal largest eigenvalue. This optimization problem
turns out to be a computationally hard problem in the well known NP class
and the available exact or proxy algorithms offer good solutions and
performances only for small data sets.
We propose a novel randomized flexible method to efficiently identify these
sets of nodes based on random walk kernels and random rooted forests. We
explain the theoretical results underlying the method, and present
experimental results where we test method and performances on classical
synthetic and real-world benchmarks.
