Logic Seminar - Charlotte Bartnick
Speaker: Charlotte Bartnick (Universität Freiburg) Title: Definable groups in differentially closed fields of positive characteristic Abstract: Definable groups in theories of fields can often be described in terms of algebraic groups. For example, by a result of Pillay, every definable group in a differentially closed field of characteristic...
SQUIDS-NASC Joint Seminar: Generalized Friendship Paradoxes in Network Science
Speaker: Professor Desmond J. Higham (University of Edinburgh) Abstract: Generalized friendship paradoxes occur when, on average, our friends have more of some attribute than us. These paradoxes are relevant to many aspects of human interaction, notably in social science and epidemiology. I will present some new theoretical results concerning...
Manchester Geometry Seminar - Rubén Izquierdo López
Speaker: Rubén Izquierdo López (ICMAT, Madrid) Title: The geometry of variational problems: An introduction to multisymplectic geometry Abstract: It is well known that autonomous classical mechanics can be described using symplectic geometry. By introducing a symplectic structure on an even-dimensional manifold (usually the cotangent bundle...
