SUMMARY:Classification of noncommutative subvarieties
DESCRIPTION:Lecturer:Jeet Sampat (Technion)\n Location:Faculty lounge\, 8th
  floor\n Abstract:\n\nA corollary of Hilbert's Nullstellensatz is that the
  quotient algebras of two\nradical ideals in the ring of (commutative) pol
 ynomials in d complex variables\nare isomorphic to each other if and only 
 if the corresponding varieties are\nisomorphic\, in the sense that there e
 xist polynomial maps between the ddimensional\ncomplex space that restrict
  to mutually inverse bijections between\nthe corresponding varieties. In t
 his talk\, we consider the noncommutative (nc)\nanalogue of the above resu
 lt and answer the following questions:\nWhen are two nc varieties "isomorp
 hic" to each other? What happens if we\nreplace the ring of complex polyno
 mials with some other algebra of complex\nnc functions?\nWe start with a s
 oft introduction to nc function theory and discuss some of the\nproperties
  that general nc functions share. For the main result\, we use a\nremarkab
 le theorem of Ball\, Marx\, and Vinnikov about extending nc functions\noff
  of subvarieties to show that if the ambient space is "nice enough" then t
 wo\nsubvarieties are isomorphic (in the sense that there is a bijective nc
  map\nbetween the subvarieties) if and only if this isomorphism is given b
 y the\nrestriction of an isomorphism between the ambient spaces.\n

SUMMARY:Mean curvature Flow and Applications
DESCRIPTION:Lecturer:Daniel Goldberg (Technion)\n Location:Faculty Lounge 8
 th floor Amado\n A Hypersurface moving so as to decrease its area in the m
 ost efficient way possible (in the L^2 norm) is said to evolve by Mean Cur
 vature Flow. The Mean Curvature Flow is considered by many to be the most 
 natural equation in extrinsic geometry as it is the L^2 gradient flow of t
 he area functional. In this talk we will introduce the Mean Curvature flow
  by first deriving it as a gradient flow. Subsequently\, we will present i
 ts basic properties including short time well-posedness\, maximum principl
 e\, and some geometric attributes. Finally\, we will show applications of 
 the Mean    Curvature Flow to material science and image processing. j\n

SUMMARY:A gap labeling theorem for Schrödinger operators on metric graphs
DESCRIPTION:Lecturer:Gilad Sofer (Technion)\n Location:Faculty Lounge 8th f
 loor Amado\n \n\nGiven a Schrödinger operator on Rn or Zn\, we are often 
 interested in its integrated density of states\, which roughly counts the 
 number of states per unit volume in the system. Special attention is often
  given to the values the integrated density of states attains inside spect
 ral gaps\, which are known as gap labels. These gap labels are also of sig
 nificant physical importance\, as seen in the quantum hall effect\, where 
 they correspond to the possible values of the Hall conductance.\n\nIn this
  talk\, I will discuss an ongoing work with Ram Band\, that focuses on the
  gap labels for Schrödinger operators on complex networks of conductors\,
  known as quantum graphs. We show that the gap labels for such quantum gra
 phs are contained in the image of a naturally defined homomorphism\, which
  depends on both the geometry of the graph\, and the dynamics governing it
 s local structure. This provides a method to compute the possible gap labe
 ls for large families of quantum graphs\, offering new insights into their
  spectral properties and potential applications.\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Learning Under Privacy: Connections to Online Learning and Ramsey T

DESCRIPTION:Lecturer:Hilla Schefler (Technion)\n Location:Faculty Lounge 8t
 h floor Amado\n \n\n\n\nDifferential Privacy (DP) is a mathematical framew
 ork for ensuring the privacy of individuals in a dataset. Roughly speaking
 \, it guarantees that privacy is protected in data analysis by ensuring th
 at the output of an analysis does not reveal sensitive information about a
 ny specific individual\, regardless of whether their data is included in t
 he dataset or not.\nIn this talk I will present a recent result regarding 
 the link between DP learning and online learning: Alon\, Livni\, Malliaris
 \, and Moran (2019) showed that for binary classification tasks\, DP learn
 ability implies online learnability. But does this connection extend to mo
 re general scenarios? We answer this positively by developing new Ramsey t
 heorems for trees.\nThis talk is based on joint work with Simone Fioravant
 i\, Steve Hanneke\, Shay Moran\, and Iska Tsubari. No prior knowledge of L
 earning Theory is required.\n\n\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Deep Learning on Multisets and Measures via Euclidean Embeddings
DESCRIPTION:Lecturer:Tal Amir (Technion)\n Location:Amado 619\n \n\n\n\n\nR
 ecent advances in machine learning have focused on non-Euclidean data\, su
 ch as sets\, point clouds\, and graphs. Developing efficient methods to em
 bed these data types into Euclidean space is critical\, as it allows for t
 he direct application of standard machine learning tools such as neural ne
 tworks. In particular\, Euclidean embeddings for more complex structures l
 ike point clouds and graphs typically rely on Euclidean embeddings for mul
 tisets as a fundamental building block.\n\nIn this talk\, I will present t
 wo novel methods for embedding multisets and measures into Euclidean space
 : the first is based on sum-pooled shallow neural networks with carefully 
 chosen activation functions [1]\; the second\, inspired by optimal transpo
 rt\, uses Fourier sampling of projected quantile functions [2]. I will dis
 cuss the theoretical properties of these methods\, including injectivity a
 nd bi-Lipschitzness\, and demonstrate their advantages in practical learni
 ng tasks. Additionally\, I will present two impossibility results: (1) emb
 eddings based on sum-pooling can never be bi-Lipschitz on multisets\, and 
 (2) no embedding can be bi-Lipschitz on distributions.\n\n\nReferences\n\n

SUMMARY:Spectral GNNs are Incomplete on Graphs with a Simple Spectrum
DESCRIPTION:Lecturer:Snir Hordan\n Location:Amado 8th Floor Lounge\n Spectr
 al features are widely incorporated within Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) to
  improve their expressive power\, or their ability to distinguish among no
 n-isomorphic graphs. One popular example is the usage of graph Laplacian e
 igenvectors for positional encoding in MPNNs and Graph Transformers. The e
 xpressive power of such Spectrally-enhanced GNNs (SGNNs) has recently rece
 ived growing attention\, yet current approaches only rely on combinatorial
  isomorphism measures to evaluate these spectral methods\, yielding limite
 d insight. We leverage a well-studied paradigm of classifying graphs by th
 eir largest eigenvalue multiplicity to introduce an expressivity hierarchy
  for SGNNs. We then prove that many SGNNs are incomplete even on graphs wi
 th distinct eigenvalues. To mitigate this deficiency\, we adapt rotation e
 quivariant neural networks to the graph spectra setting to propose a metho
 d to provably improve SGNNs' expressivity on simple spectrum graphs. We em
 pirically verify our theoretical claims via an image classification experi
 ment on the MNIST Superpixel dataset and eigenvector canonicalization on g
 raphs from ZINC.\n\n

SUMMARY:Algorithmically Adjusting Subgraph Counts of Randomly Sampled Graph
 s
DESCRIPTION:Lecturer:Hillel Raz\n Location:8th floor Lounge\n A result of J
 anson and Spencer (1992) establishes\, via a greedy probabilistic construc
 tion\, the existence of graphs whose 3-vertex subgraph counts match exactl
 y the expected counts in the Erd˝os–R´enyi random graph G(n\,p). In th
 is talk\, I will present a general algorithmic framework extending this co
 nstruction to any graphon bounded away from 0 and 1. Graphons arise as lim
 it objects of dense graphs and encode their subgraph densities. By extendi
 ng the original method—here referred to as the Janson–Spencer algorith
 m—we construct finite graphs whose 3-vertex subgraph counts agree exactl
 y with the averages prescribed by the random graph model induced by a give
 n graphon. I will then discuss further applications of this approach to ex
 tremal problems: when a graphon is close to optimizing certain subgraph co
 unts\, the algorithm produces quantitative degeneracy and structural rigid
 ity results. These results provide finite\, explicit analogues of variatio
 nal principles on graphons\, connecting algorithmic constructions with ana
 lytic extremal methods.\n

SUMMARY:Physics-informed Machine Learning: A Bird’s Eye Overview
DESCRIPTION:Lecturer:Ofek Aloni\n Location:Amado 8th floor lounge\n AI is u
 ndoubtedly impressive when applied to text and images. Can it work on phys
 ical systems\, governed by Partial Differential Equations (PDEs)? Many are
  interested in the answer to this question\, but it is not a trivial one t
 o unpack. What does it even mean to combine machine learning and PDEs? Wha
 t are the tasks that neural networks can accomplish in this context? In th
 is talk\, I aim to give a bird’s-eye overview of the subjects\, focusing
  less on fine architectural details and more on the overall approach. We w
 ill explore different paradigms for combining ML and PDEs\, highlight prom
 inent works\, and discuss known difficulties and structural limitations. P
 revious familiarity with machine learning is not assumed.\n
