Room 29 at Quan Zhai, BICMR

Abstract
The Cauchy-Riemann equation is one of the most important tools in
complex analysis. Different approaches are possible to study this equation,
here we will focus on the theory of integral representations developped by
Grauert, Lieb, Henkin in the 70’s for the local study and use the Grauert’s
bumping method to derive global results from the local ones.

The obstruction to the solvability of the Cauchy-Riemann equation on a complex
manifold is given by the Dolbeault cohomology groups. We will study these groups
in several settings: for smooth forms, for Lp form or for currents. The vanishing
of a Dolbeault cohomology group in some setting is equivalent to the solvability
of the Cauchy-Riemann equation in the same setting, the finiteness says that the
obstruction is rather small.

For some problems, it is natural to introduce support conditions in the study of
the Cauchy-Riemann equation, the case of compact supports is of great importance.
Serre duality will give some relation between the usual Dolbeaut cohomology and
the Dolbeault cohomology with compact support.

Applications to the extension of CR functions and to the solvability of the
Cauchy-Riemann equation with prescribe support will be given.

Abstract
The geometry of projective algebraic varieties is intimately
related to positivity or negativity properties of their curvature tensor. In the
introduction, we will first recall some basic concepts of complex differential geometry:
complex manifolds, Dolbeault cohomology, vector bundles, connections, Chern classes,
holomorphic Morse inequalities. These fundamental concepts will then be used to investigate
the existence of entire holomorphic curves drawn in projective algebraic varieties. This
problem is related to deep conjectures concerning number theory (Diophantine equations) and,
in a more algebraic setting, to curvature properties of jet bundles. The ultimate goal will
be to prove a recent result of the lecturer in the direction of the Green-Griffiths-Lang
conjecture, according to which every entire curve drawn in a variety of general type
satisfies algebraic differential equations.

会议信息:International Conference on Optimization, Sparsity and Adaptive Data Analysis

来源:中国科学院数学与系统科学研究院网站

The purpose of this international conference is to bring experts from different
disciplines together to exchange ideas and identify new research opportunities
in analyzing large scale data in which sparsity and optimization play an essential
role.This conference is part of the ICCM-CAM conference series.

In recent years, there has been an explosive growth in developing new efficient
algorithms to represent large scale data or multiscale solutions. The L1-based
optimization, sparsity, and low rank structures have played in an important role
in the recent developments of compressed (compressive) sensing and various fast
algorithms for image processing, data analysis and high frequency wave propagation.
Many problems in multiscale solutions and stochastic PDEs with high dimensional
input variables enjoy low rank structure when the solution is projected to some
appropriately chosen data-driven basis. At the same time, there is a lot of progress
in developing adaptive data analysis methods for analyzing nonlinear nonstationary
data. These methods can reveal some intrinsic physical features from multiscale
data. Statistical analysis has also played a significant role in modern data analysis.
This workshop will bring experts from these different disciplines together to exchange
ideas and identify new research opportunities at the interface between information
science and physical sciences.
