Description

Le séminaire des doctorant.e.s est l'occasion pour les doctorant.e.s de présenter des résultats et des problématiques dignes d'intérêt devant un public de non-spécialistes. L'ambiance y est informelle ; poser des questions naïves est encouragé, et les questions moins naïves sont bienvenues dans la mesure où elles n'entravent pas le bon déroulement de l'exposé.

Chaque jeudi à 18h, en alternance entre Jussieu et Sophie Germain.

The PhD seminar is an opportnuity for PhD students to present results and topics worthy of interest in front of a non-specialist audience. The mood is informal ; asking naive questions is highly encouraged and less naive questions are also welcomed, as long as they don't intefere with the smoothness of the talk.

Every Thursday at 6pm, alternating between Jussieu and Sophie Germain.

RésumeWikipedia gives the following definition for dynamical systems : "In mathematics, a dynamical system is a system in which a function describes the time dependence of a point in a geometrical space". This talk will not respect Wikipedia's definition, we will expand on it. Here, we will replace "time" (which often refers to $\mathbN$ or $\mathbbR) by a Polish group and "a function (...) in a geometrical space" by a group action on a compact space.
Since a general Polish group can be hard to describe (specially since we will take them non-locally compact), we will restrict our groups as automorphism groups of countable structures. So there are definitely combinatorics involved (mostly graphs though) !
Trying to probe these groups, we are lead to the notions of amenability, unique ergodocity and extreme amenability. Those notions will be described in terms of probability measures and fixed points.
