Viktor Gerasimenko, a Professor at the Institute of Mathematics of the National Academy of Sciences in Kyiv, Ukraine, is visiting Maths@Surrey for a month. His host for the visit is Cesare Tronci. Viktor and Cesare received a rebuild-Ukraine INI grant to visit the School of Maths and Physics. The visit is split into two parts: the first was […]

Ayoub Mansar, who recently completed his PhD at École normale supérieure Paris-Saclay, under the supervision of Frederic Dias, visited Mathematics last week (3-7 November). His hosts for the visit were Tom Bridges and Matt Turner. His visit was part of the breaking wave project of Mansar and Dias at ENS and Bridges and Turner at […]

This week (29-30 October) Hamid Alemi Ardakani (Exeter) and Onno Bokhove (Leeds) visited Mathematics for research interaction as part of the Newton Institute funded wave energy network. Their host for the visit was Matt Turner with Tom Bridges joining the discussions. The discussions involved constructing a research plan and funding strategy for the next generation […]

Cesare Tronci is in France this week (29-31 October) for the 2025 Geometric Science of Information conference, held in Saint-Malo. St-Malo is a historic port city in Brittany, located on the northwest coast of France. Cesare gave a talk in the session Geometric Methods in Thermodynamics on “Entropy functionals and equilibrium states in mixed quantum-classical […]

Congratulations to Dominic Stone for passing his PhD viva! The viva took place on Wednesday 29 October. Dominic‘s thesis was on lower bounds of the attractor dimension for 2D Navier–Stokes equations (preprint here), as well as regularity and existence for the 3D Navier-Stokes-Brinkman-Forchheimer equaion (published paper here). His examiners were James Robinson (Warwick) and Camilla Nobili, with […]

On Wednesday 15 October, part II of the Quantum Sciences Research Retreat was hosted by the School of Mathematics and Physics and organised by Andrea Rocco and Alessandro Torrielli. (Blog post of part I here.) The retreat got together members of the Quantum Sciences Group to speak about their latest research, and to invite others […]
