Paper of Sergey Zelik on vector reaction-diffusion equations published in Mathematische Nachrichten

The paper “Nonconcentration phenomenon for one-dimensional reaction–diffusion systems with mass dissipation“, co-authored by Juan Yang (Lanzhou & Graz, Austria), Anna Kostianko (Imperial, Moscow, Zhejiang), Chunyou Sun (Lanzhou), Bao Quoc Tang (Graz, Austria), and Sergey Zelik, has been published in Mathematische Nachrichten. The paper removes an entropy assumption in previous work to successfully obtain global boundedness […]


Michele Coti Zelati visits Maths@Surrey for Colloquium talk and research interaction

Michele Coti Zelati, a Royal Society University Research Fellow and proleptic Professor at Imperial College London, visited Maths@Surrey today (Friday 8 November). He engaged in research discussion with Camilla Nobili and her PhD student Johannes Benthaus, and gave a talk in the Friday Mathematics Colloquium. Michele’s talk was on “Hydrodynamic Stability and Wave Propagation“. The […]


Anne Skeldon gives a seminar at the Zeeman Institute for Systems Biology at Warwick

On Monday 28 October, Anne Skeldon, visited the Zeeman Institute for Systems Biology and Infectious Disease Epidemiology Research (SBIDER), a cross-disciplinary institute hosted by the Mathematics Institute at the University of Warwick, and gave a talk in the SBIDER Seminar series. The title of her talk was “Mathematical modelling of the sleep-wake cycle: light, clocks […]


Paper of Camilla Nobili on scaling laws for Rayleigh-Bénard convection published in JFM

The paper “Scaling laws for Rayleigh-Bénard convection between Navier-slip boundaries“, co-authored by Fabian Bleitner (Hamburg) and Camilla Nobili, has been published in the Journal of Fluid Mechanics (link here). Fabian is a PhD student of Camilla, based at the University of Hamburg (link here). The paper considers the two-dimensional Rayleigh–Bénard convection problem between Navier-slip fixed-temperature […]


Anne Skeldon gives virtual seminar to the Max Planck Institute for Biological Cybernetics

On Friday 25 October, Anne Skeldon gave an online seminar to the Translational Sensory and Circadian Neuroscience group at the Max Planck Institute for Biological Cybernetics in Tübingen, Germany, as part of their Cybernetics Seminar series. In the talk she gave an introduction to mathematical modelling of the sleep-wake cycle, discussing the nonsmooth coupled oscillator […]


Paper of Dorje Brody on the mathematics of communication published in The Conversation

The article “Why Trump’s messaging is becoming more extreme, a mathematician explains“, authored by Dorje Brody, has been published in The Conversation (link here). Dorje explains that one can apply the mathematics of communication, which explains our cognitive response to digesting information, to infer the impact of political messages. In particular, one can study how different messages on […]
