Month: February 2017

03 March – Alexandru Cioba (UCL): Symplectic Topology and Contact Dynamics in Low Dimensions

By mj328 | 27 February 2017

Pseudoholomorphic curves (pioneered by Gromov in ’85) have become a staple of the study of low dimensional TQFT’s over the past decades. Before one encounters … Read more

24th February – Philip Arathoon (University of Manchester): Flag manifolds

By mj328 | 21 February 2017

A natural collection of homogeneous symplectic manifolds is given by the orbits of the coadjoint action of a Lie group on the dual of its … Read more

17th February – Joe: Cluster’s first stand

By mj328 | 21 February 2017

Special types of cluster algebra arise from quiver mutation. In general these have infinitely many generators. Fomin and Zelevinsky provided a criterion for the finite … Read more

10th February – Giacomo: Characterising the Tangent Space

By mz233 | 08 February 2017

The tangent space to a smooth manifold is an important object in differential geometry. Depending on context, different ways of viewing this object can be … Read more
