Church's Problem asks for the construction of a procedure which, given a logical specification f(I,O) between input strings I and output strings O, determines whether there exists an operator F that implements the specification in the sense that f
The financial markets worldwide have seen a tremendous growth in the last four decades. To facilitate growth of research in this area we are conducting a two week long school and a workshop on Mathematical Finance sponsored by ICTS where the top luminaries in the field of mathematical/computational finance and financial economics teach a short course to interested researchers bringing them to the frontiers of research in financial mathematics.
In this talk I'll discuss our work on mitochondrial variability. Mitochondria serve as power stations for the cell and a conventional view has treated them as isolated organelles.

The Quantum Substate Theorem due to Jain, Radhakrishnan, and (2002) gives us a powerful operational interpretation of relative entropy, in fact, of the observational divergence of two quantum states, a quantity that is related to their relative en
The general problem of proving limitations on what efficient algorithms can accomplish has been the subject of much research over the past four decades. In this talk, we consider the specific question of bounding the power of Boolean circuits.
