We couldn’t have a birthday conference for Luca Trevisan but on his birthday today, we celebrate his legacy & impact on all of us through a collection of talks (below). Thanks to all who contributed to the (growing) collection. -LucaFest organizers (Anindya, Pravesh & Madhur)

A number of people (grad students in particular) said they enjoyed my talk at ICALP. So maybe you'll like it too. A little unusual, it's about how/why I ended up working on circuit complexity. youtube.com/live/0DrFB2Cp7… (Skipping the ceremonial stuff that happened before the talk)

The Bidirected Cut Relaxation for Steiner Tree has Integrality Gap Smaller than 2 dlvr.it/TBFr6y

Videos from the DIMACS Tutorial on Fine-grained Complexity have dropped!! You can access the Playlist on YouTube or you can access it together with presentation slides on this webpage: dimacs.rutgers.edu/ws-materials/f… youtube.com/playlist?list=… Karthik C. S.

A new graudate textbook on graph coloring methods! graphcoloringmethods.com (found via DMANET)

Periodic reminder that at my website you can find over 1000 pages of lecture notes on algorithms, data science, game theory, market and mechanism design, blockchain protocols, and more (see replies for link)

AI researchers have long wondered if it’s possible to eliminate the “black box” that conceals the inner workings of neural networks. A new approach called a Kolmogorov-Arnold network has generated excitement that interpretable AI could soon be in reach. quantamagazine.org/novel-architec…

'How to Write a Clear Math Paper: Some 21st Century Tips' - Igor Pak (referenced by Terence Tao, PDF): math.ucla.edu/~pak/papers/ho…

Artificial Intelligence may not be up for the Fields Medal any time soon, but it may act as an intermediary for mathematicians working on proofs. However, something is lacking for AI to get down to it. Terry Tao looks to the positives. Full lecture: youtube.com/watch?v=_sTDSO…

It’s possible to rewrite a certain kind of complicated mathematical function as a combination of simpler ones. This discovery, made in 1957 by Andrey Kolmogorov (left) and Vladimir Arnold (right), is at the heart of a new network architecture that could make AI easier to study

A great (+creative) talk: Tree Evaluation is in Space O(log n log log n) youtube.com/watch?v=pWT4kr…

Happy birthday, Yakov G. Sinai!🎉 Sinai received the Abel Prize in 2014 for “his fundamental contributions to dynamical systems, ergodic theory, and mathematical physics”. #Abelprize #Abelprize2014 #science #mathematics #physics

Recently, Prof. Martin Grötschel delivered an excellent talk titled "Optimization and OR: A Sketch of Historical Developments," available at youtube.com/watch?v=62rVYF…. During his presentation, he kindly recommended the s.t. podcast to the audience 🤩. Thanks, Martin!

Surprisingly, the pointy triangular shapes that the mathematicians Andrii Arman and Danylo Prymak are holding can roll perfectly — just as smoothly as a ball can. quantamagazine.org/mathematicians…

Noncircular shapes, like those shown here, can roll perfectly in two dimensions. But mathematicians are still trying to understand how higher-dimensional versions of such shapes behave. quantamagazine.org/mathematicians…
