Speaker: Yevhen Zelenyuk (Wits. University) Title: Discontinuity of multiplication and left translations in $G^{LUC}$ Abstract: Every locally compact group $G$ has a largest semigroup compactification, denoted $G^{LUC}$. For every $p\in G$ and $q\in G^{LUC}$, the[...]

Title: On stochastic parameterizing manifolds: Pullback characterization and Non-Markovian reduced equations Abstract: In this talk, a general approach to provide approximate parameterizations of the “small” scales by the “large” ones, will be presented for stochastic[...]

Title: Granular Flows and Martian Gullies Speaker: Prof. Jim McElwaine, Department of Earth Sciences, University of Durham Abstract: Dense granular flows occur frequently in both nature and industry, yet, despite their prevalence, they remain poorly[...]

Speaker: Markus Pflaum (U. Colorado) Title: Whitney Functions, the real homotopy type of a semi-analytic set, and a Hochschild-Kostant-Rosenberg type theorem Abstract: In the talk we consider semi-analytic subsets of a real analytic manifold and[...]
