9 February ~ Aniketh Pittea, Alexandra Rogers and Alan Riva Palacio “Some open problems and questions”
Alex will present a problem on the invariant factors of certain types of matrices arising from diagrams. Aniketh will discuss graphical models and the controversies … Read more
2 February ~ Isaac Oppong “Balance Incomplete Block Designs (BIBDs) in the Splitting Fields of some Polynomials”
We consider how we can obtain balance incomplete block designs (BIBDs) from the splitting fields of some class of polynomials. The splitting field of polynomial, … Read more
26 January ~ Andrew Celsus (University of Cambridge) “Asymptotics of Orthogonal Polynomials with Respect to Varying Complex Weights”
Motivated by the numerical approximation of highly oscillatory integrals, we consider asymptotics of orthogonal polynomials with respect to varying complex weights. The zeros of these … Read more
15 December ~ Hélder Lima “An introduction to (multiple) orthogonal polynomials”
In this talk we will see the definitions and some basic results, examples and applications for orthogonal polynomials, multiple orthogonal polynomials and d-orthogonal polynomials.
8 December ~ Christos Sarakasidis “Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity and the Eisenbud-Goto conjecture.”
The Castelnuovo-Mumford (CM) regularity is considered as one of the main invariants in (projective) algebraic geometry and commutative algebra. It gives information of the chosen … Read more
1 December ~ Joe Pallister “This Kent man earned £££ using Cluster Algebras”
Assem, Reutenauer and Smith (almost) proved that recurrences from cluster mutations of quivers satisfy linear relations if and only if the underlying quiver is Dynkin … Read more
24 November ~ V. Ponce (Heidelberg University) “Mathematical models for studying in vitro tumour invasion.”
Scratch assays or wound healing assays are popular in vitro experiments that provide insights into cancer invasion and tissue repair processes. In these experiments, a … Read more
17 November ~ F. Claassens “Just for [redacted] and giggles.”
Paul Erdős is arguably one of the most colorful mathematicians of the 20th century. In his lifetime he wrote 1525 articles with 511 collaborators in his … Read more
10 November ~ P. Spacek “Canterbury Zoo of Spaces, an overview of the main subfields of Differential Geometry.”
This presentation will give a short tour through the Canterbury Zoo of Spaces, i.e. it will introduce the basics and some nice examples and applications of Differential … Read more
