Cesare Tronci has been awarded a £250K grant by the Leverhulme Trust in the area of Geometric Fluid Dynamics.  The four-year grant starts in Janary 2015 and funds two postdoctoral fellows as well as travel.

Philip Aston has been awarded a £20K Impact Acceleration Grant by the IAA Project Management Board for a project on “Continuous information extraction using reconstruction of attractors from an ECG signal”.  The project supports the appointment of a Research Fellow for a period of 5.5 months.  The project is joint with the School of Biomedical […]

Alessandro Torrielli is visiting the Mathematical Physics Group, which links the Departments of Mathematics at Heriot-Watt University and the University of Edinburgh, this week.  On Wednesday 5th March he is giving a talk in their seminar series on “Yangians in AdS_3 and massless integrable systems“.  A link to the seminar series with an abstract can […]

The paper “Infinite-energy solutions for the Navier-Stokes equations in a strip revisited“, by Peter Anthony and Sergey Zelik, has been accepted for publication in Communications in Pure and Applied Analysis.  The paper deals with the Navier-Stokes equations in an infinite strip in the class of spatially non-decaying (infinite-energy) solutions belonging to the properly chosen uniformly […]

Costas Bachas, from the Laboratoire du Physique Théorique at Ecole Normale Superieure in Paris is visiting today (Friday 28 February) to interact with the FSG Group and to give a Colloquium talk.  He will talk on “Physics and mathematics of conformal interfaces“.  An abstract can be found here.
