DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Mikhail Shkolnikov\nhosted by Tamas Hausel\nAbstract: 
 It was observed experimentally that a small perturbation of a maximal sand
 pile on a big convex portion of a lattice deviates from the maximum along 
 a thin balanced graph. The reason for that is the existence of certain sca
 ling limit of the model. The limiting model is continuous and can be descr
 ibed in terms of dynamics on tropical analytic functions vanishing at the 
 boundary of the corresponding convex domain. The fundamental solution of t
 he model is a curve with an infinite number of punctures which appears to 
 be a complete invariant of the domain.\n
