Team of seven from Surrey Maths attends BAMC 2026 held at the University of East Anglia

A team from Surrey Mathematics attended, gave talks, and organised two minisymposia, at BAMC 2026. It was held at the University of East Anglia from 30 March to 1 April. (BAMC webpage here). The team included David Lloyd, Matt Turner, Aravind Kumar Kamaraj, Stanislaw Biber, Rachel Bernasconi, Daniel Knott and Anusha Schutz. Rachel gave a talk on “A tale of dreams, ducks and ghosts: Using geometric singular perturbation theory to provide insight into a circle map of sleep/wake cycling” in the session on Dynamical Systems. Daniel gave a talk on “Mathematical modelling of insomnia and sleep restriction therapy” in the session Mathematical Biology I. Anusha spoke on “Superharmonic instability as a mechanism for breaking of Stokes waves in finite depth” in the session Water Waves II, and Matt also spoke in Water Waves II on “Wave breaking due to a sharp-crested superharmonic instability“. Dave co-organised a minisymposium on “The Next Generation: Frontiers in Nonlinear Waves and Pattern Formation” (link here), and also gave a talk on “Modelling why urban crime doesn’t occur” in the session on Mathematical Modelling and Control. StanisÅ‚aw and Aravind co-organised a minisymposium on “Mathematics in Treatment of Brain Disorders” (link here). Aravind gave a talk on “Modelling dysfunction-specific interventions for seizure termination in epilepsy” in his minisymposium, and Stanislaw gave a talk on “Heterogeneity in deep brain stimulation gamma enhancement explained by bifurcations in neural dynamics” in his minisymposium.
