David Lloyd visited the Department of Mathematics at the University of Strathclyde yesterday (Tuesday 10 November) and gave a talk in the Joint CMIM and NASC Seminar series. The talk was on “Exploring data assimilation issues for an urban crime model” and an abstract can be found at the above link.  A key part of […]

The London Mathematical Society has funded a new network in “Mathematics in Life Sciences“, linking the Biosystems group at Surrey with similar groups in Nottingham and Southampton.  The leader of the network is Gianne Derks, and the node leaders are Daniele Avitabile (Nottingham) and Rebecca Hoyle (Southampton). The network is expected to have meetings in […]

The cover picture for Volume 783 of the Journal of Fluid Mechanics (shown left) was chosen from David Lloyd’s paper in the same issue entitled “Homoclinic snaking near the surface instability of a polarisable fluid“.  For further details on this paper see the blog post here.

Claudia Wulff has been re-appointed to a 3-year term of office, 2016-2019,  as Associate Editor of the SIAM Journal of Applied Dynamical Systems. SIADS is one of the leading journals on applied dynamical systems.  It publishes articles on the mathematical analysis and modelling of dynamical systems as well as application to the physical, engineering, life, […]

The fifth meeting of the South East Mathematical Physics Seminars” will be held on Friday 6 November at Surrey.  These meetings bring together mathematical physicists based in the south east of England, supported by a London Mathematical Society network grant.  Events will be held in 39/40 AA 04, LTM, and 24 AA 04.  The timetable […]

Ian Morris is in Argentina this week (2-6 November) and next week for a research visit to the Universidad Torcuato di Tella in Buenos Aires.  He is visiting Dr Pablo Shmerkin (former Lecturer in Mathematics at Surrey, now Associate Professor at Torcuato di Tella) for research interaction in the areas of dynamical systems and ergodic […]
