Paper of Dave Lloyd and Matt Turner on global bifurcation of patterns to appear in Nonlinearity

The paper “Global bifurcation of localised 2D patterns emerging from spatial heterogeneity“, co-authored by Dan Hill (Oxford), Dave Lloyd, and Matt Turner, has been accepted for publication in Nonlinearity. The paper presents a general approach to prove the existence, both locally and globally in amplitude, of fully localised multi-dimensional patterns in partial differential equations containing […]


Rachel Bernasconi wins the University of Surrey’s Three-Minute Thesis competition

The University of Surrey’s Three Minute Thesis (3MT) is a premier competition challenging doctoral students to condense their complex research into an engaging, non-specialist 3-minute presentation using only one static slide. The competition is open to all Postgraduate Researchers (PGRs) across all faculties who have passed their confirmation milestone. This year’s winner was Rachel Bernasconi, […]


International Conference on Symplectic Geometry and Astrodynamics held at Surrey

The workshop “Geometry Space Surrey” was held 8-10 June hosted by the Surrey Space Centre (SSC) and co-organised with Maths@Surrey. The Principal Organiser was Arthur Limoge, a symplectic geometer currently a Postdoc in the SSC. A report on the workshop is available here. The workshop focused on applications of symplectic geometry to astrodynamics. Indeed, symplectic […]


Camilla Nobili was a plenary speaker at RBC2026 on Rayleigh-Benard turbulence in Lyon

In the beginning of June (1-5 June), Camilla Nobili was in Lyon, France, for RBC2026: 10th International Conference on Rayleigh-Benard Turbulence (conference website here), at which she was a plenary speaker. RBC is a major series of conferences, held every 2-3 years, and attracting 100-200 participants. The title of her talk was “Heat Transport Scaling […]


Paper of Ian Roulstone on geometry of the velocity gradient tensor published in QJRMS

The paper “New views of some invariants associated with the Cartesian 2D velocity gradient tensor” co-authored by Ian Roulstone, Sid Clough (Met Office, retired), and Andy White (Met Office, retired), has been published in the Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society. It is published open access (link here). In the paper, novel aspects of […]
