Speaker: Zachiri McKenzie (University of Chester) Title: Transitive Containment in subsystems of set theory Abstract: Transitive Containment (TCo) says that every set is contained in a transitive set. Students usually encounter an elementary proof of this fact in Zermelo-Fraenkel Set Theory (ZF) early...

Heilbronn Algebra Seminar - Paolo Marimon
20 October - 14 November 2026
Title: All mixed identities are singular in groups with no algebraicity. Abstract: We show that if a group admits an action with no algebraicity, then all of its mixed identities are singular. This generalises a theorem of Abért showing such groups are lawless. Our result confirms a conjecture of Bodirsky,...

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....
