11:30 Leonie Mülherr (Bielefeld) Fundamental polytopes on finite metric spaces Abstract: We can associate a polytope to a metric on a finite set of points, the so-called fundamental polytope. The ...
The field of complex geometry, intertwined with Lie theory, represents a vibrant area where algebraic and differential techniques converge to unravel the structure of complex manifolds and their ...
Integral geometry and valuation theory form a dynamic field at the intersection of geometric analysis and algebraic topology. This discipline addresses the study of measures – known as valuations – ...
Jason Lotay explains how mathematicians studying special geometries are collaborating with physicists to explore M-theory, an 11-dimensional description of the world that unifies the various string ...
George Daniel Mostow, a Yale professor emeritus renowned for his contributions in geometry, has been awarded a 2013 Wolf Foundation Prize, one of the top international awards for mathematicians.
Here we provide a brief overview of the main research areas in the School of Mathematics. Note that many members of staff have interests spanning several different areas, which highlights the numerous ...
Both algebraic and arithmetic geometry are concerned with the study of solution sets of systems of polynomial equations. Algebraic geometry deals primarily with solutions lying in an algebraically ...
