Title: Soergel bimodules and Kazhdan-Lusztig theory
By: Ben Elias
From: MIT
Abstract: Recently, Geordie Williamson and I proved Soergel's conjecture, which is the generalization to arbitrary Coxeter systems of the Kazhdan-Lusztig conjecture, thus realizing Soergel's dream. Our proof was an algebraic adaptation of de Cataldo and Migliorini's Hodge-theoretic proof of the Decomposition Theorem in geometry. Our goal in this lecture series is to provide a thorough introduction to Hecke algebras, Soergel bimodules, and the Hodge-theoretic techniques which went into the proof of the Soergel conjecture. We will also introduce the diagrammatic tools which are used to study Soergel bimodules.

Title: Groupoids associated to Semigroup actions
By: S. Sundar
From: CMI
Abstract: Let $P$ be a solid closed convex cone in \mathbb{R}^{n}. The Weiner Hopf algebra associated to P is the cut-down of the group C*-algebra to L^{2}(P). The work of Muhly and Renault describes the structure of Weiner Hopf algebra in terms of groupoids. In my talk, I will explain how semigroup actions give rise to groupoids and its significance to the above example. This is joint work with Jean Renault.
