Dynamical Systems and Analysis Seminar - Ashwin Bhat
Speaker: Ashwin Bhat (University of Birmingham) Title: Constructing Non-Rectifiable Delone Sets Abstract: Delone sets, also known as separated nets, are point sets in Euclidean space that are both relatively dense and uniformly discrete. They model aperiodic structures, which have been of great interest since Dan Shechtman first observed qua..
Frankie Patten-Elliott -- Modelling drug binding to biological ion channels [IN PERSON]
Join us for this seminar by Frankie Patten-Elliott (Manchester) as part of the Maths in the Life Sciences seminar series (and the online North West Seminar Series in Mathematical Biology and Data Sciences in collaboration with Liverpool Universities). Title: Modelling drug binding to biological ion channels Abstract: In a healthy heart, ion..
Manchester Number Theory Seminar - Sam Streeter (Bristol)
Speaker: Sam Streeter (Bristol) Title: Hilbert property for del Pezzo surfaces of degree one Abstract: Various conjectures in arithmetic geometry predict the abundance of rational points on Fano varieties. In dimension two, these are the well-studied family of del Pezzo surfaces, whose arithmetic and geometric complexity is controlled by the..
Logic Seminar - Valentina Disarlo
Speaker: Valentina Disarlo (The University of Manchester) Title: The model theory of the curve graph Abstract: The curve graph of a finite-type surface is a countable graph whose vertices are isotopy classes of essential simple closed curves, with adjacency determined by disjointness. Although it arises naturally in low-dimensional topology..
Pure maths colloquium - Martin Orr
Speaker: Martin Orr (University of Manchester) Title: Rational points on algebraic curves Abstract: Understanding rational solutions of polynomials in two variables is a classical theme in number theory. For example, Fermat's last theorem can be described in this way. In this talk, I will explain how this may be interpreted geometrically as..
