Manchester Geometry Seminar - Andrey Jivkov
15:00 - 16:00 16 March 2026
Speaker: Andrey Jivkov (Manchester) Title: What becomes of Geometry when the Manifold is gone? Abstract: Classical differential geometry describes physical systems as smooth fields evolving on manifolds. However, many systems of interest evolve through discrete structural changes, for which smooth geometry provides at best an effective approximation. In...

Manchester Number Theory Seminar - Lilybelle Cowland Kellock
15:00 - 16:00 17 March 2026
Speaker: Lilybelle Cowland Kellock (Manchester) Title: Reduction types of genus 2 curves Abstract: Reduction types are used to recover lots of important arithmetic information attached to curves over local fields, for example Tamagawa numbers which show up in the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture for Jacobians of curves. I will discuss a joint...

Interdisciplinarity &: 2026 Series - Harnessing Storytelling to Amplify Research
13:45 - 14:45 18 March 2026
How can we ensure our interdisciplinary research creates real-world benefits? At The University of Manchester, we recognise that transformative research requires not just technical expertise, but also strong collaborations across disciplines and authentic engagement with communities. This workshop explores how we can co-create research narratives...

Logic Seminar - Jesse Sigal
15:00 - 16:00 18 March 2026
Speaker: Jesse Sigal (University of Edinburgh) Title: How not to choose in the semantics of dependent types Abstract: Many constructions in the semantics of logics and programming languages involve universal properties. These universal constructions allow us not to care about the choice of "implementation", the universal property alone is sufficient....

Manchester Geometry Seminar - Adam Maskalaniec
15:00 - 16:00 23 March 2026
Speaker: Adam Maskalaniec (Warsaw) Title: k-contact geometry in relativistic hydrodynamics Abstract: We develop a rigorous geometric framework for the study of relativistic spin hydrodynamics, described by generalized thermodynamic relations. Our approach extends the classical contact geometric description of equilibrium thermodynamics by...

Training course on advanced scripting and batching of tomographic datasets
23 - 24 March 2026
Although X-ray tomography is an attractive characterisation technique in materials science, it generates a huge amount of data at a fast rate and it can be extremely time consuming to process the data manually. A great benefit to creating scripts and plugins in Avizo is the ability to reuse a workflow on more than one image or to develop a bespoke...
