Most participants will arrive on Tuesday 31st January and a Welcome Reception is planned for that evening. Talks will be scheduled on Wednesday 1st February to Friday 3rd February and the conference dinner will be on Thursday evening. A bus will be arranged to take participants to Sydney airport immediately after the last talk on Friday, arriving at Sydney airport at approximately 5:30pm. If you are taking this bus, please allow some time for unexpected delays.
A draft program is below. Clicking on a speaker's name will pop up a mini timetable for that session with talk titles. Clicking on the talk title will expand the abstract.

In this talk, we extend this to two friendly directed walks in a sticky slab. I'll discuss some difficulties encountered with the analytic approach, the results from numerical analysis, and then compare these results with similar models analysed previously. |

In 2010, the exact solution for the height distribution for the 1D KPZ equation was discovered by TS-Spohn and Amir-Corwin-Quastel. There have been vast developments in the field since then. It has turned out that the solvability of the 1D KPZ equation is related to various models of quantum integrable systems such as the free fermion, XXZ spin chain, q-boson models, quantum Tora lattice, Macdonald polynomials and so on. In this presentation, after discussing these developments, we present our recent analysis of a certain model (q-TASEP) using Ramanujan’s summation formula and the Cauchy identity for the theta function.

Specifically, the talk will present a case study of a semiconductor laser receiving time-delayed and frequency-filtered optical feedback (FOF) from two external filters. This system is referred to as the 2FOF laser, and it has been used as pump laser in optical telecommunication and as light source in sensor applications. Our analysis of the 2FOF laser focuses on the basic solutions of the underlying DDE, known as external filtered modes (EFMs), which correspond to laser output with steady amplitude and frequency. We consider the EFM-surface in the space of steady-state frequency, the corresponding steady-state population inversion, and the feedback phase difference. The EFM-surface emerges as a natural object, because it allows us to give a complete classification of the EFM structure in dependence on system parameters, including the detunings and width of the filters and the two delay times. To achieve this, we employ singularity theory in conjunction with continuation methods to determine how the parameter space is divided into regions of geometrically different types of EFM surface. Finally, we show that there are bands and islands of stability related to the type of EFM-surface that may be accessible and distinguishable experimentally. This is joint work with Poitr Slowinski, University of Exeter, and Sebastian Wieczorek, University College Cork. |

Michael Wheeler:
Recently, some remarkable equivalences have been noticed between the expectation of observables in Macdonald processes and the expectation of observables in the stochastic six-vertex model. These equivalences can be proved by directly comparing integral expressions for such expectations, where they exist. In this talk I will give a conceptual proof of one such equivalence, making use of a Yang--Baxter equation which connects the two processes. |
