In this talk I will describe how bornological spaces give a foundation for derived geometries. This works over any Banach ring allowing to define analytic and differential geometry over the integers. I will discuss applications of this approach such as the representability of certain moduli spaces and Galois actions on the cohomology of differetiable manifolds admitting a \Q-form.

I will present a very short introduction to the mathematics behind the scientific imaging technique known as ptychography, starting with a brief overview of the physics model and the various simplifications required, before moving on to the main ptychography inverse problem and the three principal classes of optimization algorithms currently being used in practice. 

Given a quantum Hamiltonian, represented as an $N \times N$ Hermitian matrix $H$, we derive an expression for the largest Lyapunov exponent of the classical trajectories in the phase space appropriate for the dynamics induced by $H$. To this end we associate to $H$ a graph with $N$ vertices and derive a quantum map on functions defined on the directed edges of the graph. Using the semiclassical approach in the reverse direction we obtain the corresponding classical evolution (Liouvillian) operator. Using ergodic theory methods (Sinai, Ruelle, Bowen, Pollicott\ldots) we obtain closed expressions for the Lyapunov exponent, as well as for its variance. Applications for random matrix models will be presented.
