<p>Özet: I will talk about recent work of Adam Marcus, Daniel
Spielman and Nikhil Srivastava(MSS) where they use ideas from
combinatorics and spectral graph theory to settle several important
problems in computer science and mathematics. Two of these are
constructions of Ramanjuan graphs(expander graphs with the best possible
expansion constants) and a solution of the famous Kadison-Singer
problem. </p>
<p>Ramanujan graphs were first constructed by Lubotzy, Philips and
Sarnak and independently by Margulis using deep ideas from number theory
and geometric group theory respectively. MSS provided a new
construction in 2013, using more or less elementary ideas, a
construction that further removes important numerical restrictions in
all prior work. <br></p>
<p>The Kadison-Singer problem was one of the thorniest problems in
operator algebras till it was settled by this trio, also in 2013. The
problem is further related to dozens of problems in areas as disparate
as C* algebras, signal processing and harmonic analysis. Notably, a
majority of the mathematical community expected a negative solution to
the problem, an expectation that was confounded by Marcus, Spielman and
Srivastava. <br></p>
The techniques of their proofs are both remarkably elementary,
requiring little more than linear algebra and extremely powerful. I
expect to even be able to sketch their proofs within the time allocated
to the talk. <br><br>Zaman: 19 Şubat 2015 (Perşembe), 16:00<br><br>Yer: MSGSÜ, Bomonti Kampüsü (<a href="http://math.msgsu.edu.tr/iletisim.html" target="_blank">Harita</a>), Matematik Bölümü Seminer Odası.<br></div>
