Heilbronn Algebra Seminar - Harvey Sykes
Title: Complete reducibility in Kac-Moody groups Abstract: A Kac-Moody group G generalises a split reductive group. I will give a brief overview of these groups and discuss how to define a notion of G-complete reducibility when G is of infinite dimension. As a particular case, I will present a characterisation of G-completely reducible algebraic...

Heilbronn Algebra Seminar - Kieran Calvert
TBC
Manchester Number Theory Seminar - Ilaria Cruciani
Speaker: Ilaria Cruciani (Roma Tre/Manchester) Title: Finiteness in powers of elliptic schemes over cyclotomic extensions Abstract: A central theme in number theory is understanding when sets of rational or algebraic points on varieties are finite or infinite. Classical results, such as Northcott’s theorem, show that imposing bounds on both...
AI-Fun & ELLIS Invited Speaker Series | Pablo Moreno Muñoz
October's AI-Fun and ELLIS Invited Speaker lecture will take place in Engineering Building B, room 2B.003. It’s easy to find: from the second floor (where Eng B and Nancy Rothwell Building join), follow the signs (take a left turn and then a right turn and the room is on the left); OR from the ground floor, take the stairs to the second floor...
Manchester Number Theory Seminar - Kenji Terao
Speaker: Kenji Terao (Warwick) Title: TBA Abstract: TBA Room: Frank Adams 1
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...
