Heilbronn Algebra Seminar - Neil Saunders
Title: Springer Fibres, Parabolic Induction & Stacking Maps Abstract: The fibres coming from the Springer resolution on the nilpotent cone are incredibly rich algebraic varieties that have many applications in algebraic geometry, representation theory and combinatorics. In this talk, I will describe how we can use the combinatorics of (bi)tableaux...
Impact Bites: Knowledge Exchange session
The FSE Impact Team are starting a new event series to give academics short introductions to different aspects of research impact pathways and impact, using examples from around the faculty. Delivered over lunchtime, these 30min sessions will give you new approaches, ideas, and perspectives on research impact to think about when carrying out your...
Manchester Number Theory Seminar - Margherita Pagano
Speaker: Margherita Pagano (Imperial) Title: Wild Brauer classes via prismatic cohomology Abstract: Let K be a number field and X be a smooth and proper variety over K, I will explain how from the existence of a global 2-form on X it is possible to deduce information on the set of rational points on X. More precisely, I will show how from the...
AI-Fun & ELLIS Invited Speaker Series | Sam Power
November’s AI Fun and ELLIS Invited Speaker is Sam Power from the University of Bristol Bio: Sam is a Lecturer in the School of Mathematics. Sam received his PhD degree in 2020 from the Statistical Laboratory at the University of Cambridge, where his thesis focused on the synthesis and analysis of stochastic simulation algorithms for Bayesian...
Logic Seminar - Pantelis Eleftheriou
Speaker: Pantelis Eleftheriou (University of Leeds) On the global linear Zarankiewicz problem The global Zarankiewicz's problem for hypergraphs asks for an upper bound on the number of edges of a hypergraph, whose edge relation is induced by a fixed hypergraph E that has no sub-hypergraphs of a given size. Basit-Chernikov-Starchenko-Tao-Tran...
Freya Bull -- Blood and urine: mathematical modelling for health [IN PERSON]
Join us for this seminar by Freya Bull (UCL) as part of the Maths in the Life Sciences seminar series (and the online North West Seminar Series in Mathematical Biology and Data Sciences in collaboration with Liverpool Universities). Title: Blood and urine: mathematical modelling for health Abstract: The richness of life gives rise to many interesting...
Manchester Number Theory Seminar - Jakab Schrettner
Speaker: Jakab Schrettner (UCL) Title: Local constancy of reduction type and related invariants in p-adic families of curves Abstract: Invariants of curves and their Jacobians over local fields carry a lot of arithmetic information. Many such invariants depend on the reduction type of the curve, i.e. a choice of mod p reduction of the curve....
Training course on visualisation and quantification of tomographic datasets
A 2 day in person training course covering theory and computer-based practical works using the Thermo Scientific™ Amira-Avizo Software. Lab/synchrotron X-ray tomography has emerged as one of the most important techniques for research in a wide range of applications including healthcare, energy, food and geology. Advances in the quality of X-ray...
Dynamical Systems and Analysis Seminar - Eng-Jon Ong
Speaker: Eng-Jon Ong (Queen Mary University of London) Title: TBA Abstract: TBA Room: Frank Adams 1 Further information: https://personalpages.manchester.ac.uk/staff/yotam.smilansky/dynamics_analysis
Training course on in situ experiments and digital volume correlation
Digital Volume Correlation (DVC) is a powerful experimental technique that computes 3D full-field displacement and strain maps from volumes images acquired during a deformation process of a material. DVC is the 3D extension of Digital Image Correlation (DIC) which was first described four decades ago. The emergence of DVC started early 2000s with...
