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..
NASC Seminar: Maxwell in a cylinder via orthogonal polynomials for the de Rham complex
Speaker: Sheehan Olver (Imperial College London) Abstract: We construct vector-valued multivariate orthogonal polynomials that capture the structure of the de Rham complex (i.e., the gradient, curl and divergence) with boundary conditions in disks and cylinders (both periodic and finite) in a way that respects rotational symmetry. This constr..
Martin Falcke -- Constitutive relations of cell motility and Ca2+ signalling and the role of noise [IN PERSON]
Join us for this seminar by Martin Falcke (Berlin) 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: Constitutive relations of cell motility and Ca2+ signalling and the role of noise Abstract: Cell..
Manchester Number Theory Seminar - Giovanna De Lauri (Lancaster)
Speaker: Giovanna De Lauri (Lancaster) Title: On some even Ternary Lattices of half-discriminant N^2 and 4N^2 Abstract: During my PhD, I have been considering Hecke modules of Orthogonal modular forms attached to positive-definite ternary lattices of half-discriminant of the form N^2 and 4N^2, with N odd and square-free. This has given expl..
Logic Seminar - Jennifer Pi
Speaker: Jennifer Pi (University of Oxford) Title: An invitation to model theory for operator algebras Abstract: Operator algebras are structures with an algebraic flavour that are concretely represented as *-subalgebras of bounded operators on a Hilbert space. The model-theoretic study of operator algebras thus has parallels with classical/..
