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..
Dynamical Systems and Analysis Seminar - Terry Soo
Speaker: Terry Soo (UCL) Title: TBA Abstract: TBA Room: Frank Adams 1 Further information: https://personalpages.manchester.ac.uk/staff/yotam.smilansky/dynamics_analysis
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 sub..

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..

Manchester Geometry Seminar - Andrey Jivkov
Speaker: Andrey Jivkov (Manchester) Title: What becomes of Geometry when the Manifold is gone? Abstract: Classical differential geometry describes physical systems as smooth fields evolving on manifolds. However, many systems of interest evolve through discrete structural changes, for which smooth geometry provides at best an effective appr..
