2025

Get an insight into the research of six new postdoctoral researchers of Mathematics Münster. In short scientific presentations Gayrat Toshpulatov, Dario Reggiani, Francesco Deangelis, Floris Vermeulen, Ioannis Zachos and Sam Shepherd will introduce their topics. The talks take place within the Colloquium Wilhelm Killing on 10 April 2025 at 2:15 pm in SRZ 216/217.

On the occasion of the International Day of Mathematics on 14 March 2025, we invite everyone who is interested to explore the topic of math and art from different perspectives and actively participate at various stations.

The Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science and the Cluster of Excellence Mathematics Münster invite applications for a Professorship (W3 level) in Pure Mathematics, Bridging the Gaps Chair. We are seeking a mathematician with an exceptional international research profile whose work bridges different areas of mathematics and aligns with the research objectives of Mathematics Münster. Application deadline: 30 April 2025.

Eva Viehmann is a guest on the podcast "Pi & Power – Klischees durchbrechen, Geschichten erzählen"! She talks about her passion for algebra, her experiences as a mathematics student, her daily research work, and the stereotypes mathematicians often encounter. The podcast is produced by the Department of Mathematics at TU Darmstadt and the Collaborative Research Centre Gaus. (in German)

We welcome Dr. Peter Morfe as a new Young Research Fellow at our Cluster. He is a postdoctoral research fellow at the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics in the Sciences in Leipzig and an expert in the theory of homogenisation of elliptic and parabolic differential operators, including operators with random coefficients. During his stay until the end of February, he will collaborate with Guilherme De Lima Feltes and Hendrik Weber.

We welcome Prof. Dr. Alcides Buss (Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Brazil) as a Münster Research Fellow. He is a distinguished researcher in the field of Operator Algebras. During his stay at our Cluster in February 2025, he will intensify his collaboration with the Operator Algebra group and many other researchers from Mathematics Münster.

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.

As a Henriette Herz Scout, Prof. Dr. Franziska Jahnke can recommend postdocs from abroad for a Humboldt Research Fellowship. Now the investigator of Mathematics Münster has taken this opportunity to bring Dr. Mariana Vicaria and Dr. Floris Vermeulen to Münster. In this interview, they talk about their reasons to come to Münster, their research projects, and their start.

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.

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.

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.
 

We welcome Dr. Radhika Gupta as a new Young Research Fellow at our Cluster. She is a Reader at the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, Mumbai. Her work is mostly in geometric group theory, where she made important contributions on the geometry of CAT(0) groups and free-by-cyclic groups. During her stay until mid February, she will work on this topic with Benjamin Brück and Katrin Tent, but she is always open for mathematical exchange on various topics.

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).

Prof. Dr. Jörg Schürmann, Prof. Dr. Raimar Wulkenhaar and Dr. Yifei Zhao will give a talk on "Moduli spaces of curves and mathematical physics" at the CRC Colloquium on 10 January 2025. The talk takes place at 3:15 pm in lecture hall M3.
