Speaker: Prof. XU Ping, PennStateTime: 14:00-16:00, May 28Venue: Room102, School of Mathematical Sciences. Zijingang CampusAbstract: In this talk, we will give an overview of (-1)-shifted derived Poisson manifolds in the $C^\infty$-context, and discuss the quantization problem. We describe the obstruction theory and prove that the linear (-1)-shifted derived Poisson manifold associated to any $L_\infty$-algebroid admits a canonical $BV_\infty$ quantization. This is a joint work with Kai Behrend and Matt Peddie.

Speaker: Jit Wu Yap, graduate student, Harvard UniversityTime: 15:00-16:00, May 16Venue: Room 102, School of Mathematical Sciences, Zijingang CampusAbstract: Let $f,g$ be two polynomials of degree $d > 1$ and let $\varphi = (f,g)$ be the endomorphism acting on $P^1 x P^1$. Given two curves $C$  and  $C'$,  we  expect  that  the  forward  iterates  of  $C$,  given  by $\varphi^n(C)$, to intersect $C'$ at many distinct points. We show that outside  of  some   exceptional   cases,   this  is  true  under  a  technical assumption of the Julia sets of $f$ and $g$. This is joint work with Sina Saleh.
