James Grant is visiting the Mathematical Institute at Oxford today (Monday 28 October) to give a talk in the Partial Differential Equations Seminar series.  The talk is on “Low regularity Riemannian metrics and the positive mass theorem“.  The talk establishes that the positive mass theorem holds for asymptotically flat n-dimensional Riemannian manifolds with a metric […]

A new network on “Applied Geometric Mechanics” has been formed linking research groups at Brunel, Imperial and Surrey.  Key themes are shape analysis, geometric quantum dynamics, geometric fluid mechanics, and geometric numerical integration.  The network has been started by a grant from the London Mathematical Society.  The principal organiser of the network is Cesare Tronci.

The London Mathematical Society has funded a new network: the Southeast Mathematical Physics Network, which links Cambridge, City, Hertfordshire, Kent, KCL and Surrey.  The funding of £1.5K provides for three half-day workshops during the 2013-4 academic year.  The inaugural meeting is expected to be at Kent in November.  The Surrey node leader is Alessandro Torrielli.

At the recent meeting of the programme committee, the London Mathematical Society awarded two grants to Surrey mathematics.  Jock McOrist has been awarded a £1.2K Scheme 4 grant for a Research-in-Pairs project.  The grant provides funding for a visit of Jock to Chicago to work with Professor Savdeep Sethi. A £1.5K Scheme 2 grant has […]

Bin Cheng is visiting the Mathematics Institute at the University of Warwick this week on Thursday and Friday.    On Friday 11 October he is giving a talk on “Analysis of some nonlinear PDEs from multi-scale geophysical applications“.  The website with the seminar announcement is here.
