ICMS Seminar
The ICMS seminar aims to present and disseminate advances in different fields of the contemporary fundamental and applied mathematics, and to promote new cutting edge directions in Mathematics.
The ICMS seminar aims to present and disseminate advances in different fields of the contemporary fundamental and applied mathematics, and to promote new cutting edge directions in Mathematics. The seminar hosts scientific reports by collaborators and visitors of the ICMS, as well as colloquium-style lectures by invited speakers. The interdisciplinary features of the ICMS are reflected in the variety of topics covered in the seminar, ranging in algebraic and differential geometry, number theory, category theory, combinatorics, representation theory, mathematical physics, algebraic coding theory, etc. The venue is open to a wide audience, and the lectures are followed by time for interaction and discussion.

Quantum circuit complexity for light polarisation or complexity with no complex number, talk by Jean-Pierre Gazeau
I will present a form of quantum circuit complexity that extends to open systems. To illustrate the methodology, I focus on a basic model where the Hilbert space of states is represented by the Euclidean plane. Specifically, the investigation is about the dynamics of mixed quantum states as they undergo interactions with a sequence of gates.
A categorical view of singularity theory I and II, talks by Paul Horja
The mirror symmetry phenomenon was discovered by string theorists more than thirty years ago as an equivalence of two physical theories associated with very different geometries. The categorical point of view on this remarkable conjecture was famously introduced by M. Kontsevich in his 1994 ICM talk. As it became clear over time, homological mirror symmetry provides new approaches to many topics in symplectic and algebraic geometry. In these two talks, I will present a brief overview of the conjecture as well as some results inspired by mirror symmetry and obtained in joint work with L. Katzarkov about classical problems on discriminants and singularity theory.
