Meistaraprófsfyrirlestur: Sigurður Jens Albertsson

Þriðjudaginn 30. maí kl 14:00 í stofur 158 í VRII mun Sigurður Jens Albertsson halda fyrirlestur um meistaraverkefni sitt. Titill fyrirlestrarins er Transforming linear recurrences with homomorphisms. Ágrip: Linear recurrences and linear differential equations can be expressed as ring elements annihilating vectors. This formulation is applied to study effects of homomorphisms on these equations. It

Málstofa: Gabor Elek

Næsta málstofa verður þriðjudaginn 25. apríl kl 13:20 í Naustinu, húsi Endurmenntunar. Fyrirlesari er Gabor Elek, Lancaster University. Titill fyrirlestrarins er Very fast graph algorithms. Ágrip: Interesting graph parameters are very hard to compute, that is, the known computation algorithms run in exponential times. Unfortunately, we don’t have that much time…. However, for certain important

Málstofa: Friðrik Freyr Gautason

Næsta málstofa verður þriðjudaginn 21. mars kl 13:20 í Naustinu, húsi Endurmenntunar. Fyrirlesari er Friðrik Freyr Gautason, Háskóla Íslands. Titill fyrirlestrarins er Localization and the AdS/CFT correspondence. Ágrip: When studying quantum systems of particles and their interactions, we are often interested in computing the so-called partition function which is a generating function for physical observables.
