Special events Documents and media Download the educational Spotlight on the event Abstract In 1530, François I founded the Collège des lecteurs royaux, now the Collège de France, to provide the nation with the knowledge it needed. One hundred and fifty years later, in … 29 Jan 2025 19:00 - 20:30 Event Yilin Wang The Brownian Loop Measure on Riemann Surfaces and Applications to Length Spectra Symposium Abstract The goal of this talk is to showcase how we can use stochastic processes to study the geometry of surfaces. More precisely, we use the Brownian loop measure to express the lengths of closed geodesics on a hyperbolic surface and zeta-regularized … 29 Jan 2025 15:30 - 16:20 Event Jérémie Bouttier On the Enumeration of Maps with Geodesic Boundaries Symposium Abstract Combinatorial maps are discrete surfaces obtained as gluings of polygons. The first enumerative results about them were obtained by Tutte in the 1960's. During the 1980-90's, they were intensively studied in theoretical physics (under various … 29 Jan 2025 14:30 - 15:20 Event Thierry Lévy Volume of the Moduli Space of Flat Connections, After Witten Symposium Abstract In this talk, I will explain how Witten, at the beginning of the 1990's, computed the symplectic volume of the moduli space of flat connections on a principal bundle over a closed compact surface. Witten's main idea was to approximate the … 29 Jan 2025 11:40 - 12:30 Event Bertrand Eynard Random geometries in the mirror of algebraic geometry Symposium Abstract Random geometry involves calculating expectations and probabilities on random geometric objects, typically surfaces (hyperbolic surfaces, discrete surfaces, surfaces immersed in a target space, or carrying certain fields, etc.) Remarkably, the … 29 Jan 2025 10:40 - 11:30 Event Agnès Desolneux Some Random Image Models and their Applications in Digital Mammography Symposium Abstract In this talk I will present several random image models that are else explicit (such as Gaussian models or Boolean models for instance), or more "implicit" (such as images generated by a neural network). I will discuss how these models are used … 28 Jan 2025 15:00 - 15:50 Event Anne Estrade Geometry of Smooth Random Fields Excursions and Statistical Inference Symposium Abstract Some geometrical and topological features of the excursions of smooth random fields will be presented, such as their expected Lipschitz-Killing curvatures. The concerned random fields will be Gaussian or Gaussian based, but also shot-noise fields … 28 Jan 2025 14:00 - 14:50 Event François Baccelli On unimodular random graphs Symposium Abstract The talk will first introduce unimodular random graphs and give several examples from the theory of point processes, branching processes, random walks and self-similar discrete random sets. Several types of results on these graphs will then be … 28 Jan 2025 11:00 - 11:50 Event René Bloch The idea of geographical determinism and the Jewish diaspora Guest lecturer Abstract In Greek and Roman ethnography, the idea that the geographical environment determines the character of its inhabitants was widespread.

Biological invasions are part of a general context of global change, including habitat loss, climate change and pollution. And each threatened species is … 23 Jun 2025 10:00 - 11:00 Event Sonia Garel Immunoception : how the brain perceives the immune system Lecture Abstract This final lecture will explore the notion of immunoception, showing how the brain is able to detect and interpret signals of immune origin as a true sense in its own right. Drawing on recent work, it will illustrate how these perceptions can … 23 Jun 2025 16:30 - 18:00 Event Stanislas Dehaene Perception of trends and curves Lecture Documents and media Download support … 14 Feb 2025 09:30 - 11:00 Event Boris Leroy The science of invasions and biogeography Seminar 23 Jun 2025 11:15 - 12:15 Event Jean-Luc Fournet, Valérie Schram & Korshi Dosoo A recently discovered Theban magic papyrus (1) Seminar Abstract Discovered in July 2022 on the west bank of Thebes by the American-Egyptian archaeological mission of the South Asasif Conservation Project, the perfectly preserved scroll that will be the subject of these three sessions offers a series of texts … 13 Feb 2025 15:30 - 17:00 Event Lionel Marti " At the command of the god Aššur...

The new lecture presents the content of the Book of Joshua and theories on its composition. The question of the historicity of the conquest of Canaan is examined. Such a conquest never took place; it is an … 13 Feb 2025 14:00 - 15:00 Event Vinciane Pirenne-Delforge Gods and cities: starting with Aeschylus Lecture Abstract As the Hellenist Jean-Louis Durand (1939-2016) put it, ancient Greece was a 'sacrificial culture', in the sense that it regularly performed rituals that we call 'sacrifices'. As a general introduction to this year's lectures, we proposed an … 13 Feb 2025 11:00 - 12:00 Series Paul Veyne at the Collège de France Dario Mantovani, chair Law, Culture and Society in Ancient Rome Symposium Paul Veyne in his office.
