Mathematics Münster

Prof. Dr. Scott Armstrong (Sorbonne University / New York University) will give a talk on "Anomalous diffusion and renormalization" at the Colloquium Wilhelm Killing on 23 January 2025. The talk takes place at 2:15 pm in lecture hall M4.
 

This is a joint seminar of research groups from Bielefeld and Münster. It started in 2015 and usually takes place once every semester, either in Bielefeld or in Münster. The topics of interest include group theory, geometry and topology. Everyone is welcome to participate in the lectures.

The workshop is aimed at algebraic and arithmetic geometers curious about the potential application of model theory in their research, as well as at model theorists who are keen to learn how their tools may be extended to answer questions of geometric interest.

Model Theory meets GGT is a week-long conference aimed at bringing together young researchers in the areas of Model Theory and Geometric Group Theory. These two areas exhibit a rich interplay, and the mini-courses and research talks will be aimed to display topics in this intersection. Furthermore, there will be a lightning talks session in which all participants are encouraged to give a brief introduction to their own research and interests, so as to foster even more interaction between the participants.

For his contribution to the research programme "Recent Trends in Stochastic Partial Differential Equations", Prof. Dr. Hendrik Weber, investigator at Mathematics Münster, has been awarded a Clay Senior Scholar Award by the Simons Laufer Mathematical Sciences Institute (SLMath, formerly MSRI).

In the final episode (for now) of our podcast series On a Tangent, we delve into the fascinating journey of Edith Hübner from physics to mathematics. The doctoral researcher in topology shares surprising lessons that gnomes can teach young children and takes us into the mysterious world of infinity categories.
