We show that a closed non-positively curved 4-manifold with negative Ricci curvature has positive Gromov's simplicial volume.

Metric ribbon graphs (MRG) are graphs embedded into surfaces equipped with positive edge lengths. Functions counting MRG's with given boundary lengths are a priori piecewise polynomials, but in some cases become honest polynomials.

I will first present one such case -- Kontsevich's polynomials counting trivalent MRG's (from his proof of Witten's conjecture about intersection numbers on the moduli spaces of curves), and explain how they are used to study hyperbolic and flat surfaces.

A famous theorem of Selberg asserts that $\log|\zeta(\tfrac12+it)|$ is approximately a normal distribution with mean $0$ and variance $\tfrac12\log\log T$, when we sample $t\in [T,2T]$ uniformly.

Given a finite group $G$ a 4-cocycle $\pi \in \mathrm{H}^4(G,U(1))$, the 4D Dijkgraaf–Witten model provides an exactly solvable gauge theory with applications in high-energy physics and topological phases of matter. The topological defects in this model form a braided fusion 2-category $\mathscr{Z}(\mathbf{2Vect}^\pi_G)$, the Drinfeld center of $\pi$-twisted $G$-crossed finite semisimple linear categories.

In Euclidean space, the Gauss Circle Problem concerns estimating the number of lattice points inside a Euclidean circle. In this talk, we examine analogous problems in the hyperbolic plane, approached through the lens of the spectral theory of automorphic forms. We also highlight arithmetic applications, particularly the distribution of ideals in number fields.

Skein lasagna modules (with 0-dimensional inputs) are 4-manifold invariants introduced by Morrison-Walker-Wedrich. In this context, a skein is a properly embedded surface in a 4-manifold minus a disjoint union of 4-balls, and the lasagna comes from a TQFT for links in S^3 (satisfying mild conditions).

Geometric quantization on symplectic manifolds plays an important role in representation theory and mathematical physics, and is deeply related to symplectic and differential geometry. A crucial problem is to understand the relationships among geometric quantizations associated with different polarizations. In this talk, we will discuss the existence of mixed polarizations and degeneration of Kähler polarizations associated to imaginary-time flow.

In recent work of Kennard, Khalili Samani, and the last author, they generalize the Half-Maximal Symmetry Rank result of Wilking for torus actions on positively curved manifolds to $\mathbb{Z}_2$-tori with a fixed point. They show that if the rank is approximately one-fourth of the dimension of the manifold, then fixed point set components of small co-rank subgroups of the $\Z_2$-torus  are homotopy equivalent to spheres, real projective spaces, complex projective spaces, or lens spaces.
