Logic seminar: Giacomo Tendas
Title: Theories, sketches, and accessible categories. Abstract: In this talk I will give an overview on the relationship between Logic, the theory of Sketches (whose notion sits between logic and category theory) and that of Accessible Categories (a purely category theoretic notion). In particular, we will see that a category is (equivalent to)...
Dynamical Systems and Analysis Seminar - Faustin Adiceam
Speaker: Faustin Adiceam (Université Paris-Est Créteil) Title: Badly approximable vectors and putative counterexamples to the Littlewood conjecture Abstract: Answering a question raised by Bugeaud, the talk will be concerned with the determination of the Hausdorff dimension of a natural set interpolating between the set of badly approximable...
Gabriele Schweikert -- North West Seminar Series in Mathematical Biology and Data Sciences [IN PERSON]
Join us for this seminar by Gabriele Schweikert (Dundee) as part of the North West Seminar Series in Mathematical Biology and Data Sciences. The talk will be hosted in person in room 4.63 of the Simon Building. For those who cannot attend in person the talk will also be streamed via zoom, please contact carl.whitfield@manchester.ac.uk or igor.chernyavsky@manchester.ac.uk...
Manchester Geometry Seminar - Kasia Rejzner
Speaker: Kasia Rejzner (York) Title: Perturbative algebraic quantum field theory meets the boundary Abstract: I will begin with outlining the formalism of perturbative algebraic quantum field theory, which has been successfully applied in quantisation of gauge theories. Then I will explain how it can be generalized to situations where a boundary...
Algebra seminar - Isambard Goodbody
Title: Reflexivity and Hochschild Cohomology Abstract: Smooth and proper DG-categories are noncommutative generalisations of smooth and proper schemes. They also include finite dimensional algebras of finite global dimension. Kuznetsov and Shinder defined reflexive DG-categories as a (vast) generalisation; they include all projective schemes and...
Manchester Number Theory Seminar - Faustin Adiceam
Speaker: Faustin Adiceam (Paris-Est Créteil) Title: Homogeneous forms inequalities Abstract: The talk is concerned with counting the number of solutions to a system of inequalities of the form |F(x)| < A and ||x|| < B, where F is a real homogeneous form in n variables and A, B are parameters, requiring that the vector x should lie in a lattice....
