Logic Seminar - Calum Hughes
Speaker: Calum Hughes (The University of Manchester) Title: Elementary axiomatisations of the (2,1)-category of groupoids Abstract: Axiomatising the notion of a set is not an entirely trivial matter, as shown by Russell’s paradox, for example. There are at least four approaches to this problem: Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory; the approach of Lawvere...
Digital Worlds Fireside Chat: Meet Our Theme Lead
Find out more about our Digital Worlds theme and learn more about the support we can provide. Meet the Digital Worlds Theme Lead, Dave Topping, at Digital Worlds Fireside Chat: Meet Our Theme Lead! "When we frame digital tools as an ecology, we draw on natural-system concepts to reveal how software, hardware, data, people, and the wider environment...

Manchester Number Theory Seminar - Happy Uppal
Speaker: Happy Uppal (Bristol) Title: Lines on del Pezzo surfaces Abstract: One of the crowning achievements of classical algebraic geometry is the Cayley–Salmon theorem, which states that any smooth cubic surface over an algebraically closed field contains exactly 27 lines. Over more general fields, however, the situation becomes more subtle:...

Manchester Geometry Seminar - Konstantinos Kourliouros
Speaker: Konstantinos Kourliouros (Imperial) Title: Dynamical Propagation of Uncertainty: Contact Geometry, Statistics and Legendrian Singularities. Abstract: In this talk I will present a newly established contact geometric theory underlying the dynamical propagation of uncertainty in random dynamical systems with bounded noise. Using this...
