Andrea Fontanella, a Phd student of Jan Gutowski, working on a PhD in the area of geometry of supersymmetric solutions, gave a talk on Friday 3 July in London at the London Mathematical Society 150th Anniversary PhD Student Meeting held at MBA House in Tavistock Square in London.  The talk title was “Generalised geometry in […]

This week (6-10 July) the “Young Researchers Integrability School” is being held at the University of Durham.  Alessandro Torrielli is one of 6 main speakers and he is talking on “Classical Integrability“.  Andrea Prinsloo is attending the lectures. A link to the event is here.

The conference Human Circadian Rhythms: developing a multi-oscillator framework is taking place this week (6-10 July) at the Lorentz Center in the Netherlands.  Anne Skeldon is the Principal Organizer of the conference with co-organizers Derk-Jan Dijk (Surrey Sleep Research Centre) and Daniel Forger (Michigan).  This international workshop will bring together a mix of mathematicians and […]

The paper A stability criterion for the non-linear wave equation with spatial inhomogeneity, co-authored by Christopher J.K. Knight and Gianne Derks, has been accepted for publication in the Journal of Differential Equations.  In the paper the non-linear wave equation with a spatial inhomogeneity is considered, which has multiple stationary fronts.  The paper introduces and proves […]

Gianne Derks is visiting Piet Hein van de Graaf and Vivi Rottschafer at the University of Leiden this week (1-3 July), and giving the opening lecture at the Minisymposium on Applied Dynamical Systems on Thursday.  Her talk is on “The dynamics of sleep-wake regulation, from maps to naps.”  The talk was based on joint work […]

Alessandro Torrielli visited the Albert Einstein Institute for fundamental physics, which is associated with the University of Bern.  He visited last week and while there he gave a talk during a mini-workshop entitled “Eta and lambda deformations in integrable systems and supergravity“.
