2. Riemann-Hilbert Problems
-
Problem 2.1.
[Tamara Grava] Given Q, produce Q(z^d) with multiple disjoint support sets for the droplet. Study the soft Riemann-Hilbert problem for orthogonal polynomials. -
Problem 2.2.
[Pavel Blaher] Study potential theory for k \times k Riemann-Hilbert problems for k>2 when multiple orthogonal polynomials are involved. -
Problem 2.3.
[Manuela Girotti] In general, can you pose matrix Riemann Hilbert problems for KdV? -
Problem 2.4.
[Aron Wennman] For planar orthogonal polynomials, we know that \overline{\partial} Y=\overline{Y} \begin{bmatrix} 0 & w \\ 0 & 0 \\ \end{bmatrix}and \int p_j\overline{p_k}wdA=h_j\delta_{j,k}.Is there an analogue of small norm theory of such \overline{\partial}-problems (i.e. \overline{\partial} A=\overline{A} W +AV?) Or small norm theory for A_{+}-A_{-}=\overline{A_{-}}V_C+A_{-}V_n? -
Problem 2.5.
[Ken McLaughlin] Analyze the condition given by \overline{\partial}\phi=\overline{H_n}e^{-NQ},where Q=|z|^2+2t\text{Re}(z^2) and where \overline{H_n} is Hermite. -
Problem 2.6.
[Tomas Berggren] Consider \prod_{i=1}^N \begin{bmatrix} 1 & a_iz \\ b_i & 1 \\ \end{bmatrix},for constants a_i, b_i. Suppose Wiener-Hopf factorization has no partial indices. Study the behavior as N \rightarrow \infty. The asymptotics are known if the a_i’s and b_i’s are periodic. What happens in the more general case? -
Problem 2.7.
[Haakan Hedemaim] Consider Z_N=\int_{\Gamma} \cdots \int_{\Gamma} \prod_{i \leq j < k \leq N} |z_k-z_j|^{2\beta} \prod_{j=1}^N\Big(\frac{1}{1+|z_j|^2}\Big)^{(N-1)\beta+1} d|z_1| \cdots d|z_N|.Study Z_N as N \rightarrow \infty, where \Gamma is a smooth loop on the Riemann sphere. -
Problem 2.8.
[Maksim Kosmakov] The discrete Bessel process is connected to Poissonized Plancherel measure. Consider the distance of the largest particle: \mathbb{P}[Q_{\text{max}}\leq x]=q(x), where q solves the cylindrical Toda equation. Take the limit to get cylindrical KdV. Is there a connection to Riemann-Hilbert Problems? -
Problem 2.9.
[Estelle Basor] Formulate and then analyze general finite matrix symbol with the analog of zeros and jumps.
