Lecturer/Senior Lecturer Seminars - Francis Hui »
Mixed models, Mixture models, Maximum likelihood and the letter "M"
Galois extensions in symmetric monoidal categories »
Given a ring object in a symmetric monoidal category, we can investigate what it means for an extension to be (quasi-)Galois.
Visualising spheres in higher dimensions »
In this talk, I will discuss different ways of thinking about higher dimensional spheres.
Lecturer/Senior Lecturer Seminars - Xiao Fang »
In this talk, we give a brief introduction to Stein's method.
Thompson's group T as ratios of trees »
This is the first quantum mathematics meeting for the semester.
The representation theory of sl_2 (and maybe sl_3) »
This is Sam Quinn's ASC talk, on the representation theory of Lie algebras.
Generalized Koszul duality, or the yoga of (co)bar constructions »
Koszul duality may be viewed as machinery to find smaller replacements for the (co)bar construction of a dg (co)algebra
Transfer Operators and Iterated Function Systems »
In this talk, I will first give a general introduction to transfer operators and then a review of recent work on uniformly contracting and non-uniformly contracting iterated function systems.
A general theory of canonical lifts »
The classical theory of canonical lifts for elliptic curves gives a canonical way of lifting (ordinary) elliptic curves in positive characteristic to characteristic zero.
Stochastic Partial Differential Equations meets functional calculus »
After a short introduction on stochastic integrals and PDEs, I will explain two situations where one can apply functional calculus techniques in the study of the regularity of solutions to SPDEs.
