Pure maths colloquium - Radha Kessar
Speaker: Radha Kessar (University of Manchester) Title: Rationality and quaternion blocks Abstract: To each indecomposable factor (block) of a finite group algebra over a field of positive characteristic p is associated a conjugacy class of finite p-subgroups of the group called the defect groups of the block. A conjecture of Donovan predic..
Manchester Number Theory Seminar - Joseph Harrison (Warwick)
Speaker: Joseph Harrison (Warwick) Title: Sum-product phenomena in algebraic groups Abstract: The cardinality of sumsets and product sets can be regarded as quantitative indicators of additive or multiplicative structure. Erd{\H o}s and Szemer{\' e}di proved that a set of integers cannot have both a small sumset and a small product set. In o..
Logic Seminar - Floris Vermeulen
Speaker: Floris Vermeulen (University of Münster) Title: Kontsevich-Zagier in valued fields Abstract: A period is a real number which is the measure of a semialgebraic set defined over the rationals. The ring of periods was formally introduced by Kontsevich and Zagier in 2001, and remains a rather mysterious object. Kontsevich and Zagier co..
