The (classical) Minkowski problem asked for sufficient and necessary conditions such that a finite Borel measure on the sphere is the surface area measure of a convex body. Its solution, based on works by Minkowski, Aleksandrov and Fenchel & Jessen, is one of the centerpieces of the classical Brunn-Minkowski theory. There are two far-reaching extensions of the classical Brunn-Minkowski theory, the Lp-Brunn-Minkowski theory and the dual Brunn-Minkowskitheory. In the talk we will discuss the analog of the (classical) Minkowski problem within the dual Brunn-Minkowski theory

This paper develops an asymptotic theory of nonlinear least squares estimation by establishing a new framework that can be easily applied to various nonlinear regression models with heteroscedasticity. This paper explores an application of the framework to nonlinear regression models with nonstationarity and heteroscedasticity. In addition to these main results, this paper provides a maximum inequality for a class of martingales and establishes some new results on convergence to a local time and convergence to a mixture of normal distributions.

In this report, we first introduce some backgrounds of delay differential equations and then consider the Galerkin method to solve the vanishing delay differential equations under uniform and quasi-graded mesh. The global convergence and local superconvergence results are obtained. Based on the local superconvergence results, several postprocessing techniques to accelerate the global convergence are proposed. State dependent delay differential equations are also considered. Theoretical expectations are confirmed by numerical experiments.

We consider the logarithmic Minkowski inequality which is equivalent to several problems in convex geometric analysis and is still an open problem in dimension greater than 2. Among the problems equivalent to the logarithmic Minkowski inequality is the uniqueness of solutions to the logarithmic Minkowski problem. We present yet a new connection to a uniqueness of a Minkowski problem, namely if a given centro-affine Minkowski problem has unique solution (up to special linear group of transformations), then the corresponding logarithmic Minkowski inequality holds.

In this talk we present a review on stochastic symplecticity (multi-symplecticity) and ergodicity of numerical methods for stochastic nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equation. The equation considered is charge conservative and has the multi-symplectic conservation law. Based a stochastic version of variational principle, we show that the phase flow of the equation, considered as an evolution equation, preserves the symplectic structure of the phase space. We give some symplectic integrators and multi-symplectic methods for the equation. By constructing control system and invariant control set, it is proved that the symplectic integrator, based on the central difference scheme, possesses a unique invariant measure on the unit sphere.

Ligand–receptor binding and unbinding are fundamental biomolecular processes and particularly essential to drug efficacy. Environmental water fluctuations, however, impact the corresponding thermodynamics and kinetics and thereby challenge theoretical descriptions. We devise a holistic, implicit-solvent, multi- method approach to predict the (un)binding kinetics for a generic ligand–pocket model. We use the variational implicit-solvent model (VISM) to calculate the solute–solvent interfacial structures and the corresponding free energies, and combine the VISM with the string method to obtain the minimum energy paths and transition states between the various metastable (“dry” and “wet”) hydration states.

Let f be a conservative partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism which is homotopic to an Anosov automorphism A on T 3 . We show that the stable and unstable bundles of f are jointly integrable if and only if every periodic point of f admits the same center Lyapunov exponent with A. In particular, f is Anosov. This implies that every conservative partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism which is homotopic to an Anosov automorphism on T 3 is ergodic, which proves the Ergodic Conjecture proposed by Hertz-Hertz-Ures on T 3 . This is a joint work with Shaobo Gan.
