Resum: The study of removable singularities focuses on characterizing the sets that allow extensions of solutions to partial differential equations (PDEs). In this way, it builds a bridge between this area and the metric–geometric properties of sets that, in some sense, do not pose an obstacle when solving such equations, the so-called removable sets. At this point, capacities play a key role. These functions assign a non-negative value to subsets of the ambient space and satisfy the property that those with zero value are precisely the ones that are removable for the PDE associated with the capacity.
The study of capacities has been extensive in the elliptic setting, and there has recently been growing interest in extending this theory to the parabolic case. In this talk, we will introduce capacities associated with the classical heat equation, as well as with its fractional variants, and we will characterize the capacity of certain Cantor sets. These sets are important in this context because they provide examples of removable sets that are nonetheless maximal in a dimensional sense. We will present recent results we have obtained for parabolic Lipschitz capacities and compare them with classical results.

Resum: We consider the family QS of quadratic polynomial differential systems. According to Darboux's theory of integrability, the existence of invariant algebraic curves for a polynomial differential system aids in determining a first integral of the system. Systematic studies of quadratic differential systems with invariant conics began toward the end of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st century. However, it is only in the past 15 years, with the application of the theory of algebraic invariants for polynomial differential equations (developed by Sibirschi), that some global classifications of systems in QS possessing invariant conics have been established. Each of these classifications addresses a subfamily of QS systems, which each possess either at least one invariant hyperbola, parabola, or ellipse.

In this work, we focus on the class of quadratic systems that possess at least one invariant parabola and at least one invariant ellipse (denoted as QSPE). We provide necessary and sufficient affine invariant conditions for a system to belong to QSPE and classify this family according to the configurations of invariant parabolas, ellipses, and lines that these systems can possess.

Resum: Given a $k$-algebra $A$ (where $k$ is a field), one way of organizing the category mod$A$ of the finitely generated right $A$-modules is through the so-called Auslander-Reiten quiver $\Gamma$(mod$A)$. The vertices of such quiver correspond to the isoclasses of the indecomposable objects in mod$A$ and the arrows indicate the existence of irreducible morphisms between them. Recall that, for $A$-modules $X,Y$, $\mathrm{rad}_A(X,Y)$ denotes the set of non-isomorphisms $X \rightarrow Y$. Clearly, one can extend it to general modules as follows: $\mathrm{rad}_A(\oplus_{i=1}^n X_i,\oplus_{j=1}^m Y_j) = \oplus_{i=1}^n\oplus_{j=1}^m \mathrm{rad}_A(X_i,Y_j)$. Using the fact that $\mathrm{rad}_A$ is an ideal of the category $\textrm{mod} A$, one can consider its powers, defined recursively by: $\mathrm{rad}_A^0 = \mathrm{Hom}_A, \mathrm{rad}_A^1= \mathrm{rad}_A, \mathrm{rad}_A^n = \mathrm{rad}_A^{n-1} \cdot \mathrm{rad}_A$, where the product $\cdot$ stands for composition of morphisms. We also define $\mathrm{rad}_A^{\infty} = \cap_{n \geq 0} \mathrm{rad}_A^n$. A morphism is called irreducible if it belongs to $\mathrm{rad}_A(X,Y) \setminus \mathrm{rad}_A^2(X,Y)$. Irreducible morphisms are of key importance, since, as shown by Auslander-Reiten theory, these morphisms generate any other morphism modulo $\mathrm{rad}^{\infty}$.

Clearly, a composition of $n$ irreducible morphisms between indecomposable modules belongs to $\mathrm{rad}^n$ and one could wonder if it is also true that, provide it is non-zero, it does not belong to $\mathrm{rad}^{n+1}$. This is not true, not even for $n \geq 2$. Deciding in which cases there might be a non-zero composition of $n$ irreducible morphisms belonging to $\mathrm{rad}^{n+1}$ has become an interesting line of investigation. The purpose of this talk is to define mesh-comparable components using the so-called Riedtmann's functors and show that, in such components, one can choose for each of its arrow an irreducible morphism in such a way that a composite of $n\geq 2$ of them either belongs to rad$_A^{n} \setminus $ rad$_A^{n+1}$ or is zero.
This is part of a joint work with Viktor Chust "Mesh-comparable components of the AR-quiver".

Resum: Certain isogeny-based cryptographic protocols rely on a class group action. We study a large family of generalized class groups of imaginary quadratic orders . We prove that they act freely and (essentially) transitively on the set of primitively O-oriented elliptic curves over a field k equipped with appropriate level structure. This extends, in several ways, a recent observation due to Galbraith, Perrin, and Voloch for the ray class group. We show that this leads to a reinterpretation of the action of the class group of a suborder O’ of O on the set of O’-oriented elliptic curves and discuss several other examples. This is joint work with W. Castryck, J. Komada Eriksen, G. Lorenzon, and F. Vercauteren, with ongoing follow-up work joint with J. Macula and E. Orvis.
