[:is] Math colloquium Fyrirlesari: Yadollah Zare, Galatasaray University Titill: Center conditions: pull-back of differential equations. Ágrip: The space of polynomial differential equations of a fixed degree with a center singularity has many irreducible components. We prove that pull-back differential equations form an irreducible component of such a space. This method is inspired by Ilyashenko and Movasati’s […]

 [:is] Math colloquium Fyrirlesari: Sangmin Lee, Seoul National University Titill: Complete 1st post-Minkowskian potential from scattering amplitudes. Staðsetning: VHV-007 (Veröld)Tími: Mánudagur 24.Janúar kl.10:00 Ágrip: Building upon recent progress in applying amplitude techniques to perturbative general relativity, we propose a closed-form formula for the conservative Hamiltonian of a spinning binary system at the 1st post-Minkowskian order. It

[:is]Math colloquium Fyrirlesari: Ragnar Sigurðsson, University of Iceland Titill: Norms on complexifications of real vector spaces. Staðsetning: VRII-258 Tími: Fimmtudagur 6.febrúar kl. 10:50 Ágrip: The subject of this lecture is of general interest and it only requires knowledge of elementary linear algebra. The complexification V_C of a real vector space V is the smallest complex

[:is] Math colloquium Fyrirlesari: Lukas Schneiderbauer, Háskóli Íslands Titill: Non-Commutative Geometry: An introduction. Ágrip: This is my attempt to introduce non-commutative geometry to mathematicians. After putting forward the main ideas and main theorem(s), I will concentrate on the construction of simple examples in the context of fuzzy spaces (special cases of non-commutative geometries). In case
