Title: On the Signature of an Image
Abstract: An analytic and algebraic understanding of iterated integral signatures associated to continuous paths has played a central role in in a wide range of mathematical areas, such as the construction of stochastic integration for non-martingales with rough paths theory, to formal representations and expansions of solutions to (partial) differential equations. In recent years, the signature has proven to be an efficient feature map for machine learning tasks, where the learning task is related to time series data, or data streams. In contrast to time series data, image data can naturally be seen as two-parameter fields taking values in multidimensional space, and in recent years there has been some research into the extension of the path signature to multi-parameter fields (see e.g. Chouk/Gubinelli 14, Lee/Oberhauser (21 and 23)). In this talk, I will propose a new extension of the path signature to two-parameter fields motivated by expansions of solutions to certain hyperbolic PDEs with multiplicative noise. The algebraic structure of this object turns out to be rather complicated and I will discuss our current understanding of the challenges with going from 1 to 2 parameters, and provide some interesting observations related to a Chen type relation and a Shuffle type relation. At last, I will briefly discuss the universality of the 2D signature, providing a universal approximation theorem, and discuss some open problems. This talk is based on joint work (arXiv: 2403.00130) with Joscha Diehl, Kurusch Ebrahimi-Fard, and Samy Tindel, and is part of the Signatures for Images project for 2023/2024 at CAS

Title: Higher signatures
Abstract: The signature of a path, which is the collection of the path’s iterated integrals, is a central object of study in rough path theory and has found applications in machine learning. In this talk, I will present a notion of 2-dimensional signature (i.e. a signature for images) that enjoys many of the properties of the classical path signatures, including invariance under reparametrisation and Chen’s identity. The framework is inspired by ideas of Kapranov in 2015 and relates closely to recent work of Oberhauser and Lee 2023. Of interest, our construction relies on a non-commutative sewing type lemma which has the potential for the study of signatures of “rough surfaces”. Based on joint work with Joscha Diehl, Kurusch Ebrahimi-Fard, and Nikolas Tapia.

Title: Remarks on the Magnus expansion
Abstract: In 1954, Wilhelm Magnus introduced an infinite Lie series to represent the solution of a first-order operator/matrix-valued homogeneous linear differential equation. This expansion, later named the Magnus expansion or series, has become a crucial tool utilized in various fields, including physics, chemistry, and engineering. Over the past 25 years, the Magnus expansion has undergone significant mathematical developments, uncovering intricate connections between algebra, combinatorics, and geometry. In this presentation, we will explore the Magnus expansion from the perspective of crossed morphism. If time permits, we will also discuss some recent applications in the context of Chen's signature extended to membranes (instead of paths).
