Sharp decay estimates for waves on black holes and Price's law

Dejan Gajic
(Cambridge)
Abstract
Price’s law postulates inverse-power polynomial decay rates for solutions to the wave equation on Schwarzschild backgrounds with respect to appropriately normalized null coordinates. Polynomial decay rates as a lower bound are known in the physics literature as “late-time power law tails”. I will discuss new physical space methods for proving sharp decay rates for solutions to the wave equation on a class of asymptotically flat, stationary, spherically symmetric spacetimes, establishing in particular the upper bounds and lower bounds in Price’s law on Schwarzschild. This work has been done jointly with Yannis Angelopoulos and Stefanos Aretakis.

Everyone knows that Moore’s law says that computers get cheaper at an exponential rate.  What is not as well known is that many other technologies that have nothing to do with computers obey a similar law. Costs for DNA sequencing, some forms of renewable energy, chemical processes and consumer goods have also dropped at an exponential rate, even if the rates vary and are typically slower than for computers.

4th moment of quadratic Dirichlet L-functions in function fields

Alexandra Florea
(Stanford University)
Abstract

We discuss moments of $L$-functions in function fields, in the hyperelliptic ensemble, focusing on the fourth moment of quadratic Dirichlet $L$-functions at the critical point. We explain how to obtain an asymptotic formula with some of the secondary main terms.
