Anna Kostianko is on an extended research visit to China this spring.  She is based at Lanzhou University.  The photo left shows Anna at the beginning of one of her talks.  The photo below shows her out and about in Pekin.

The paper “Dual pairs for matrix groups“, co-authored by Paul Skerritt and  Cornelia Vizman (University of Timişoara, Romania) has been published in the Journal of Geometric Mechanics.  They present two dual pairs that can be seen as the linear analogues of the EPDiff dual pair due to Holm & Marsden, and the ideal fluid dual […]

This week (6-10 May) Gianne Derks is visiting Giuseppe Gaeta in the Department of Mathematics “Federido Enriques” of the Università degli Studi di Milano.  The purpose of the visit is research interaction on  symmetries of stochastic equations in biology.  On Tuesday 7 May, she gave a seminar on “Existence and stability of fronts in inhomogeneous […]

The paper “Classification, geometry and applications of supersymmetric backgrounds“, co-authored by U. Gran (Chalmers University, Sweden), G. Papadopoulos (Kings College London), and Jan Gutowski, has been published by Physics Reports.  A link to the published paper is here.  The paper reviews the remarkable progress that has been made the last 15 years towards the classification […]

Bin Cheng undertook a month long research visit to America this spring (3 to 28 March) travelling from Maryland on the east coast to California on the west coast. He gave a talk at the University of Maryland (6 March), the University of Texas at Dallas (15 March), and Arizona State University (22 March).  The […]
