Dear colleagues, 

we are happy to announce the following online talk:

Speaker: Valentina Cammarota (Università di Roma La Sapienza)

Title: No repulsion between critical points for random plane wave and planar Gaussian random fields.

Abstract: Random plane wave is conjectured to be a universal model for high-energy eigenfunctions of the Laplace operator on generic compact Riemannian manifolds. This is known to be true on average. We discuss one of important geometric observable: critical points. We first compute one-point function for the critical point process, in particular we compute the expected number of critical points inside any open set. After that we compute the short-range asymptotic behaviour of the two-point function. This gives an unexpected result that the second factorial moment of the number of critical points in a small disc scales as the fourth power of the radius. Joint work with Dmitry Beliaev and Igor Wigman. 

Date and time: Monday March 14, 17:30-18:30 (Rome time zone).
