NASC Seminar: Maxwell in a cylinder via orthogonal polynomials for the de Rham complex
12:00 - 13:00 09 October 2026
Speaker: Sheehan Olver (Imperial College London) Abstract: We construct vector-valued multivariate orthogonal polynomials that capture the structure of the de Rham complex (i.e., the gradient, curl and divergence) with boundary conditions in disks and cylinders (both periodic and finite) in a way that respects rotational symmetry. This construction...

Manchester Number Theory Seminar - Giovanna De Lauri (Lancaster)
15:00 - 16:00 13 October 2026
Speaker: Giovanna De Lauri (Lancaster) Title: On some even Ternary Lattices of half-discriminant N^2 and 4N^2 Abstract: During my PhD, I have been considering Hecke modules of Orthogonal modular forms attached to positive-definite ternary lattices of half-discriminant of the form N^2 and 4N^2, with N odd and square-free. This has given explicit...

Logic Seminar - Jennifer Pi
15:00 - 14 October 2026
Speaker: Jennifer Pi (University of Oxford) Title: An invitation to model theory for operator algebras Abstract: Operator algebras are structures with an algebraic flavour that are concretely represented as *-subalgebras of bounded operators on a Hilbert space. The model-theoretic study of operator algebras thus has parallels with classical/discrete...

Training course on in situ experiments and digital volume correlation
19 - 20 October 2026
Digital Volume Correlation (DVC) is a powerful experimental technique that computes 3D full-field displacement and strain maps from volumes images acquired during a deformation process of a material. DVC is the 3D extension of Digital Image Correlation (DIC) which was first described four decades ago. The emergence of DVC started early 2000s with...
