Manchester Number Theory Seminar - Lilybelle Cowland Kellock
Speaker: Lilybelle Cowland Kellock (Manchester) Title: Reduction types of genus 2 curves Abstract: Reduction types are used to recover lots of important arithmetic information attached to curves over local fields, for example Tamagawa numbers which show up in the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture for Jacobians of curves. I will discuss a..
Logic Seminar - Jesse Sigal
Speaker: Jesse Sigal (University of Edinburgh) Title: How not to choose in the semantics of dependent types Abstract: Many constructions in the semantics of logics and programming languages involve universal properties. These universal constructions allow us not to care about the choice of "implementation", the universal property alone is su..
Manchester Geometry Seminar - Adam Maskalaniec
Speaker: Adam Maskalaniec (Warsaw) Title: k-contact geometry in relativistic hydrodynamics Abstract: We develop a rigorous geometric framework for the study of relativistic spin hydrodynamics, described by generalized thermodynamic relations. Our approach extends the classical contact geometric description of equilibrium thermodynamics by..

Join us for this seminar by Oliver Meacock (Sheffield) 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: Growth accelerations bridge the mechanistic and ecosystem scales in microbiomes Abstract: Mi..
Logic Seminar - Charlotte Bartnick
Speaker: Charlotte Bartnick (Universität Freiburg) TBC
Manchester Geometry Seminar - Rubén Izquierdo López
Speaker: Rubén Izquierdo López (ICMAT, Madrid) Title: The geometry of variational problems: An introduction to multisymplectic geometry Abstract: It is well known that autonomous classical mechanics can be described using symplectic geometry. By introducing a symplectic structure on an even-dimensional manifold (usually the cotangent bu..
