The main goal of the CRM CAMP project is to bring together the worldwide community of researchers in the area of computer-assisted methods of proof, especially those working in the areas of dynamical systems theory and nonlinear analysis. This community has enjoyed dramatic growth over the last three decades, and has developed methods to resolve a number of important unsolved problems in mathematics. Yet participating researchers are scattered around the globe, and there is a growing need for a regular forum for discussion and dissemination of results. This is especially important in current time of unprecedented travel interruption.

Seminar presented by Shane Kepley (Rutgers University, USA)
Understanding connecting and collision/ejection orbits is central to the study of transport in Celestial Mechanics. The atlas algorithm combines the parameterization method with rigorous numerical techniques for solving initial value problems in order to find and validate connecting orbits. However, difficulties arise when parameterizing orbits passing near a singularity such as “near miss” homoclinics or ejection/collision orbits. In this talk we present a method of overcoming this obstacle based on rigorous Levi-Civita regularization which desingularizes the vector field near the primaries. This regularization is performed dynamically allowing invariant manifolds to be parameterized globally, even near singularities.

We prove the existence of a Hopf bifurcation in the Kuramoto–Sivashinsky PDE. For this, we rewrite the Kuramoto–Sivashinsky equation into a desingularized formulation near the Hopf point via a blow-up approach and we apply the radii polynomial approach to validate a solution branch of periodic solutions. Then this solution branch includes the Hopf bifurcation point.

Seminar presented by Piotr Nowak (Polish Academy of Sciences, Poland)
Property (T) was introduced in 1967 by Kazhdan and is an important rigidity property of groups. The most elementary way to define it is through a fixed point property: a group G has property (T) if every action of G by affine isometries on a Hilbert space has a fixed point. Property (T) has numerous applications in the form of rigidity of actions and operator algebras associated to the group, constructions of expander graphs or constructions of counterexamples to Baum-Connes-type conjectures.
In this talk I will give a brief introduction to property (T) and explain the necessary group-theoretic background in order to present a computer-assisted approach to proving property (T) by showing that the Laplacian on the group has a spectral gap. This approach allowed us show that Aut(F_n), the group of automorphisms of the free group F_n on n generators, has property (T) when n is at least 5: the case n=5 is joint work with Marek Kaluba and Narutaka Ozawa, and the case of n at least 6 is joint work with Kaluba and Dawid Kielak. Important aspects of our methods include passing from a computational result to a rigorous proof and later obtaining the result for an infinite family of groups using a single computation. I will present an overview of these arguments.

Seminar presented by Akitoshi Takayasu (University of Tsukuba, Japan)
In this talk, we introduce a numerical method for rigorously finding the monodromy matrix of hypergeometric differential equations. From a base point defined by fundamental solutions, we analytically continue the solution on a contour around a singular point of the differential equation using a rigorous integrator. Depending on the contour we obtain the monodromy representation of fundamental solutions, which represents the fundamental group of the equation. As an application of this method, we consider a Picard-Fuchs type hypergeometric differential equation arising from a polarized K3 surface. The monodromy matrix shows a deformation of homologically independent 2-cycles for the surface along the contour, which is regarded as a change of characterization for the K3 surface. This is joint work with Naoya Inoue (University of Tsukuba) and Toshimasa Ishige (Chiba University).

In this talk I will present a Computer Aided Proof of Noise Induced Order (NIO) in a model associated with the Belousov-Zhabotinsky reaction: when studying the random dynamical system with additive noise associated to the BZ map, as the noise amplitude increases the Lyapunov exponent of the model transitions from positive to negative. The proof is obtained through rigorous approximation of the stationary measure using Ulam method.
I will also show a sufficient condition for the existence of NIO in a wide family of one-dimensional examples.

We will present three methods that can be used for computer assisted proofs of Arnold diffusion in Hamiltonian systems. The first is the classical Melnikov method; the second is based a shadowing lemma in the setting of the scattering map theory; the last is based on topological shadowing using correctly aligned windows and cones. We will also discuss an application in the setting of the Planar Elliptic Restricted Three Body Problem.

In this talk, we discuss a long-standing conjecture concerning shear-induced chaos in stochastically perturbed systems exhibiting a Hopf bifurcation. Using the recently developed theory of conditioned Lyapunov exponents on bounded domains, we reformulate the problem into the rigorous computation of eigenvectors of some elliptic PDEs, namely the Kolmogorov/Fokker-Planck equations describing distributions of the underlying stochastic process, and are thus able to prove that the first Lyapunov exponent is positive for certain parameter regimes.

Seminar presented by Caroline Wormell (University of Sydney, Australia)
Full-branch uniformly expanding maps and their long-time statistical quantities serve as common models for chaotic dynamics, as well as having applications to number theory. I will present an efficient method to compute important statistical quantities such as physical invariant measures, which can obtain rigorously validated bounds. To accomplish this, a Chebyshev Galerkin discretisation of transfer operators of these maps is constructed; the spectral data at the eigenvalue 1 is then approximated from this discretisation. Using this method we obtain validated estimates of Lyapunov exponents and diffusion coefficients that are accurate to over 100 decimal places. These methods may also fruitfully be extended to non-uniformly expanding maps of Pomeau-Manneville type, which have largely been altogether resistant to numerical study.

Seminar presented by Renato Calleja (Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico, Mexico)
N-body choreographies are periodic solutions to the N-body equations in which equal masses chase each other around a fixed closed curve. In this talk I will present a systematic approach for proving the existence of spatial choreographies in the gravitational body problem with the help of the digital computer. These arise from the polygonal system of bodies in a rotating frame of reference. In rotating coordinates, after exploiting the symmetries, the equation of a choreographic configuration is reduced to a delay differential equation (DDE) describing the position and velocity of a single body. We prove that a dense set of Lyapunov orbits, with frequencies satisfying a Diophantine equation, correspond to choreographies.

Seminar presented by Daniel Wilczak (Jagiellonian University, Poland)
We give a computer-assisted proof of the existence of symbolic dynamics for a certain Poincaré map in the one-dimensional Kuramoto-Sivashinsky PDE. In particular, we show the existence of infinitely many (countably) periodic orbits (POs) of arbitrary large principal periods. We provide also a study of the stability type of some POs and show the existence of a countable infinity of geometrically different homoclinic orbits to a periodic solution. The proof utilizes pure topological results (variant of the method of covering relations on compact absolute neighbourhood retracts) with rigorous integration of the PDE and the associated variational equation. This talk is based on the recent results [1,2].

Seminar presented by Nilima Nigam (Simon Fraser University, Canada)
Approximations via conforming and non-conforming finite elements can be used to construct validated and computable bounds on eigenvalues for the Dirichlet Laplacian in certain domains. If these are to be used as part of a proof, care must be taken to ensure each step of the computation is validated and verifiable. In this talk we present a long-standing conjecture in spectral geometry, and its resolution using validated finite element computations. Schiffer’s conjecture states that if a bounded domain Ω in R^n has any nontrivial Neumann eigenfunction which is a constant on the boundary, then Ω must be a ball. This conjecture is open. A modification of Schiffer’s conjecture is: for regular polygons of at least 5 sides, we can demonstrate the existence of a Neumann eigenfunction which does not change sign on the boundary. In this talk, we provide a recent proof using finite element calculations for the regular pentagon. The strategy involves iteratively bounding eigenvalues for a sequence of polygonal subdomains of the triangle with mixed Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions. We use a learning algorithm to find and optimize this sequence of subdomains, and use non-conforming linear FEM to compute validated lower bounds for the lowest eigenvalue in each of these domains. The linear algebra is performed within interval arithmetic. This talk is based on the following paper, which is a joint work with Bartlomiej Siudeja and Ben Green at University of Oregon.

Seminar presented by Xuefeng Liu (Niigata University, Japan)
We consider the solution verification for the stationary Navier-Stokes equation over a bounded non-convex 3D domain Ω. In 1999, M.T. Nakao, et al., reported a solution existence verification example for the 2D square domain. However, it has been a difficult problem to deal with general 2D domains and 3D domains, due to the bottleneck problem in the a priori error estimation for the linearized NS equation. Recently, by extending the hypercircle method (Prage-Synge's theorem) to deal with the divergence-free condition in the Stokes equation, the explicit error estimation is constructed successfully based on a conforming finite element approach [arXiv:2006.02952]. Further, we succeeded in the solution existence verification for the stationary NS equation in several nonconvex 3D domains. In this talk, I will show the latest progress on this topic, including the rigorous estimation of the eigenvalue of Stokes operator in 3D domains.

Whitham’s equation of shallow water waves is a non-homogeneous non-local dispersive equation. As in the case of the Stokes wave for the Euler equation, non-smooth traveling waves with greatest height between crest and trough have been shown to exist. In this talk I will discuss uniqueness of solutions to the Whitham equation and show that there exists a unique, even and periodic traveling wave of greatest height, that moreover has a convex profile between consecutive stagnation points, at which there is a cusp. Joint work with Alberto Enciso and Bruno Vergara.

Seminar presented by Michael Plum (Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Germany)
Many boundary value problems for semilinear elliptic partial differential equations allow very stable numerical computations of approximate solutions, but are still lacking analytical existence proofs. In this lecture, we propose a method which exploits the knowledge of a "good" numerical approximate solution, in order to provide a rigorous proof of existence of an exact solution close to the approximate one. This goal is achieved by a fixed-point argument which takes all numerical errors into account, and thus gives a mathematical proof which is not "worse" than any purely analytical one. A crucial part of the proof consists of the computation of eigenvalue bounds for the linearization of the given problem at the approximate solution. The method is used to prove existence and multiplicity statements for some specific examples, including cases where purely analytical methods had not been successful.

Seminar presented by Jonathan Jaquette (Boston University, USA)
In this talk we study the nonlinear Schrödinger equation 
posed on the 1-torus. Based on their numerics, Cho, Okamoto, & Shōji conjectured in their 2016 paper that: (C1) any singularity in the complex plane of time arising from inhomogeneous initial data is a branch singularity, and (C2) real initial data will exist globally in real time. If true, Conjecture 1 would suggest a strong incompatibility with the Painlevé property, a property closely associated with integrable systems. While Masuda proved (C1) in 1983 for close-to-constant initial data, a generalization to other initial data is not known. Using computer assisted proofs we establish a branch singularity in the complex plane of time for specific, large initial data which is not close-to-constant.
Concerning (C2), we demonstrate an open set of initial data which is homoclinic to the 0-homogeneous-equilibrium, proving (C2) for close-to-constant initial data. This proof is then extended to a broader class of nonlinear Schrödinger equation without gauge invariance, and then used to prove the non-existence of any real-analytic conserved quantities. Indeed, while numerical evidence suggests that most initial data is homoclinic to the 0-equilibrium, there is more than meets the eye. Using computer assisted proofs, we establish an infinite family of unstable nonhomogeneous equilibria, as well as heteroclinic orbits traveling between these nonhomogeneous equilibria and the 0-equilibrium.

Seminar presented by Jan Bouwe van den Berg (VU Amsterdam, Netherlands)
In this talk we discuss a mathematically rigorous computational method to compare local minimizers of the Ohta-Kawasaki free energy, describing diblock copolymer melts. This energy incorporates a nonlocal term to take into account the bond between the monomers.
Working within an arbitrary space group symmetry, we explore the phase space, computing candidates both with and without experimentally observed symmetries. We validate the phase diagram, identifying regions of parameter space where different spatially periodic structures have the lowest energy. These patterns may be lamellar layers, hexagonally packed cylinders, body-centered or close-packed spheres, as well as double gyroids and 'O70' arrangements. Each computation is validated by a mathematical theorem, where we bound the truncation errors and apply a fixed point argument to establish a computer-assisted proof. The method can be applied more generally to symmetric space-time periodic solution of many partial differential equations.

Seminar presented by Arnd Scheel (University of Minnesota, USA)
The CRM CAMP seminar series explores the interplay between scientific computing and rigorous mathematical analysis, spotlighting research in areas like dynamical systems theory and nonlinear analysis. The field has developed rapidly over the last several decades and, with researchers spread around the globe, there is a growing need for a regular forum to share results, pose interesting questions, and discuss new directions. This project is envisioned as a kind of online community center for weekly gatherings, as well as a repository for educational materials. In addition to the weekly lecture series the program also serves as a mechanism for organizing workshops, tutorials, and other scientific activities. We hope that, by increasing the visibility of this research, the project will stimulate collaborations across existing groups and between our community and mathematicians working in other areas.

The main question addressed in this course is: suppose we have computed a good numerical approximation of a solution of nonlinear equation -- can we establish the existence of a true solution nearby? Combining tools from functional analysis, complex analysis, numerical analysis, and interval computing, we see that for many of the problems mentioned above the answer is yes. A broad and example driven overview of the field of validated numerics is given.
