Manchester Geometry Seminar - Lasse Rempe
Speaker: Lasse Rempe (Manchester) Abstract. In 1965, cartographer L. P. Lee proposed using a conformal map of a tetrahedron to the sphere as the basis for a map projection with less dramatic area distortion than the classical projections. While this has not caught on, it suggests the following mathematical question: Which orientable surfaces..
Maths education seminar: Louise Walker on peer and self feedback
Speaker: Louise Walker (University of Manchester) Title: Using peer and self-feedback to develop mathematical study skills. Abstract: This talk will describe how we developed the How to Study Maths sessions for our first year undergraduate maths students. I will give some background on active self-feedback and explain how we implemented peer..
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..
Logic Seminar - Asaf Karagila
Speaker: Asaf Karagila (University of Leeds) Title: Intermediate models of ZF and weak versions of the Axiom of Choice. Abstract: It is a well-known fact that two models of ZFC with the same sets of ordinals are equal. This fact has a generalisation using the Kinna–Wagner Principles, which suggest that the iterated power set of the ordinal..
Dynamical Systems and Analysis Seminar - Joaquin Carrasco Gomez
Speaker: Joaquin Carrasco Gomez (University of Manchester) Title: TBA Abstract: TBA Room: Frank Adams 1 Further information: https://personalpages.manchester.ac.uk/staff/yotam.smilansky/dynamics_analysis
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..
