Congratulations to Dominic Stone for passing his PhD confirmation examination! It was held on Monday 6th February, and the examiners were James Grant and Camilla Nobili. The title of his project is “The non-autonomous Navier-Stokes-Brinkman-Forchheimer equation with Dirichlet boundary conditions: dissipativity, regularity, and attractors”. His project is supervised by Sergey Zelik. A recent paper on […]

The paper “Identification of an influence network using ensemble-based filteringfor Hawkes processes driven by count data“, co-authored by Naratip Santitissadeekorn, Sylvain Delahaies, and Dave Lloyd, has been accepted for publication in Physica D. In the paper, they model event-driven dynamics on a network by a multidimensional Hawkes process. They then develop a novel ensemble-based filtering […]
