Manchester Geometry Seminar Special Session - Anisa Chorwadwala
Speaker: Anisa Chorwadwala (Indian Institute of Science Education and Research Pune) Title: Optimisation of a mixed Steklov Dirichlet Eigenvalue Abstract: In this talk, I am going to talk about an eigenvalue optimisation problem over a family of doubly connected domains U:=D?? in R^2 where ?D, one boundary component, is a circle while the other...
Heilbronn Algebra Seminar - Pete Gautam
Title: tbc Abstract: tbc
Manchester Number Theory Seminar - Jenny Roberts (KCL)
Speaker: Jenny Roberts (KCL) Title: Newform Eisenstein congruences of local origin Abstract: The theory of Eisenstein congruences dates back to Ramanujan’s surprising discovery that the Fourier coefficients of the discriminant function are congruent to the 11th power divisor sum modulo 691. This observation can be explained via the congruence...
Digital Trust and Security Webinar: Daniel Shiu
The Internet is shifting to post?quantum security as current encryption weakens. This talk explores the risks &how we can protect our future This event invites participants from all disciplines and backgrounds to come together, fostering interdisciplinary connections and discussions. Talk Title: Can we make the Internet quantum-resistant? The...
Logic Seminar - Orla McGrath
Speaker: Orla McGrath (University of Leeds) TBC
SQUIDS Seminar: Optimizing the Dynamics of the Frequency Bias in Fourier Features Neural Networks
Speaker: Professor Matias Courdurier (Pontifical Catholic University of Chile) Abstract: Implicit Neural Representations often learn signals capturing low-frequency structure before high-frequency details, a phenomenon known as Frequency Bias. Fourier Feature networks can reduce this effect by encoding inputs with sinusoidal components sampled...
Heilbronn Algebra Seminar - Anja Meyer
Title: tbc Abstract: tbc
Manchester Number Theory Seminar - Joseph Harrison (Warwick)
Speaker: Joseph Harrison (Warwick) Title: Sum-product phenomena in algebraic groups Abstract: The cardinality of sumsets and product sets can be regarded as quantitative indicators of additive or multiplicative structure. Erd{\H o}s and Szemer{\' e}di proved that a set of integers cannot have both a small sumset and a small product set. In other...
