On a Wolstenholme congruence
Like Fermat's little theorem and Wilson's theorem the congruence of Wolstenholme is a classical elementary result dealing with primes. Like Fermat and Wilson's theorem various natural generalizations have appeared in due time. However, another elementary generalization was found recently. It involves Lucas sequences which are a generalization of the Fibonacci numbers. This and more will be the subject of our talk.

An overview of the arithmetic of surfaces
ABSTRACT: A major topic in number theory, studied since ancient times,is the investigation of Diophantine equations - that is, equations to which whole-number solutions are sought. Studying Diophantine equations can often be viewed as the study of integer or rational points on a geometric object, such as a curve or surface. During the twentieth century it became clear that the geometry has a remarkably strong influence on the arithmetic of the equation. For an equation defining a curve, the geometry is relatively simple and its influence on the Diophantine problem well understood. For an equation defining a surface, there is a far wider selection of possibilities for the geometry, and the relationship between the geometry and the arithmetic is less clear and more conjectural. I will exhibit some example of surfaces showing interesting arithmetic features, and describe some approaches to their study.

Full Connectivity: Corners, edges and faces
ABSTRACT: "Many complex networks exhibit a percolation transition involving a macroscopic connected component, with universal features largely independent of the microscopic model and the macroscopic domain geometry. In contrast, it turns out that the transition to full connectivity is strongly influenced by the details of the boundary and exhibits an alternative form of universality. The statistical physics approach taken here produces a generalized formula for the probability of fully connectivity. This result is largely model independent and facilitates system design to promote or avoid full connectivity for diverse geometries in arbitrary dimension. I will also discuss applications of this formula to wireless communication networks."

The Brauer group in arithmetic geometry
ABSTRACT: The interest in the Brauer group of algebraic varieties is motivated by the efforts to describe rational points over number fields using the Brauer-Manin obstruction. I will give an overview of recent finiteness results for the Brauer group, and will give examples when this group can be explicitly computed.

Nonparametric estimation of diffusions: a differential equations approach
ABSTRACT: We consider estimation of scalar functions that determine the dynamics of diffusion processes. It has been recently shown that nonparametric maximum likelihood estimation is ill-posed in this context. We adopt a probabilistic approach to regularize the problem by the adoption of a prior distribution for the unknown functional. A Gaussian prior measure is chosen in the function space by specifying its precision operator as an appropriate differential operator. We establish that a Bayesian Gaussian conjugate analysis for the drift of one-dimensional non-linear diffusions is feasible using high-frequency data, by expressing the log-likelihood as a quadratic function of the drift, with sufficient statistics given by the local time process and the end points of the observed path. Computationally efficient posterior inference is carried out using a finite element method. We embed this technology in partially observed situations and adopt a data augmentation approach whereby we iteratively generate missing data paths and draws from the unknown functional. Our methodology is applied to estimate the drift of models used in molecular dynamics and financial econometrics using high and low frequency observations. We discuss extensions to other partially observed schemes and connections to other types of nonparametric inference.
