Málstofa 12 september, kl. 10:50 (athugið óvenjulega tímasetningu!) Fyrirlesari: Gordon Slade (University of British Columbia)Titill: Self-avoiding walk, spin systems, and renormalisationÁgrip: The subject of critical phenomena in statistical mechanics is a rich source of interesting and difficult mathematical problems that touch oncombinatorics, probability, and mathematical physics. Self-avoiding walks and lattice spin systems provide fundamental examples. This …

Applications are invited for a postdoctoral position at the University of Iceland financed by The Icelandic Research Fund. The research project is called: „Scaling limits of random enriched trees“ and is in the field of probabilistic combinatorics. The project includes studying scaling limits of random graphs, statistical mechanical models on random planar maps and related …

[:is]Málstofa í stærðfræði Fyrirlesari: Carolina Canales Gonzalez, Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile Titill: Looking for a complex Poincaré-Bendixson theorem Staðsetning: V-258, VR-IITími: Fimmtudagur 28. febrúar kl. 11.40 Ágrip: The goal of this talk is to introduce the study of holomorphic foliations. First, we will recall some things about differential equations on $\mathbb{R}^2$, like the Poincaré-Bendixson theorem …

Bárðarson, KTH Stockholm Titill: On the chiral anomaly in Weyl semimetals Staðsetning: VR-II 158 Tími:þriðjudagur 4. desember, kl. 13.30 Ágrip: I will give an introduction to the physics of Weyl semimetals focussing on Fermi arcs and chiral anomaly. I will then discuss some transport properties of Weyl semimetals including strongly …
