Abstract: The k-Ricci curvature interpolates between the Ricci curvature and holomorphic sectional curvature. For the positive case, a recent result asserts that the compact Kaehler manifolds with positive k-Ricci are projective and rationally connected. This generalizes the previous results of Campana, Kollar-Miyaoka-Mori for the Fano case and the Heirer-Wong and Yang for holomorphic sectional curvature case. For the negative case, all compact Kaehler manifolds with negative k-Ricci admit a Kaehler-Einstein metric with negative scalar curvature. I shall explain how to get this result by solving a complex Monge-Ampere equation. |

In this last talk of the series, we construct a superregular random walk. This will be done by modifying a standard construction of the Brownian motion. Then we will use it to create private synthetic data on the interval. Using sspace-filling curves will allow to extend the construction to higher dimensions.

In this talk, I will discuss two proofs -- one based on the pinning lemma from statistical physics and another based on randomized rounding -- showing that for every $k \geq 3$, there exists a sigma algebra $\mathcal{F}$ generated by a partition of $\mathbb{R}^{m}$ into $k$ sets such that |
