LIGO-Virgo's First Gravitational-Wave Transient Catalog
LIGO-Virgo's First Gravitational-Wave Transient Catalog
Yesterday, April 8th, Oxford Mathematician Robin Thompson gave a hugely well-received Oxford Mathematics Online Public Lecture on how mathematicians model infectious diseases such as COVID-19. We hope that it will continue to provide a useful introduction to mathematical models of infectious disease outbreaks (and how they can inform public health measures).
Introduction to non-commutative L_p-space
This is a meeting of the UK virtual operator algebras seminar: see https://sites.google.com/view/uk-operator-algebras-seminar/home
Abstract
This talk will give an easy introduction to non-commutative L_p spaces associated with a tracial von Neumann algebra. Then I will focus on non-commutative L_p spaces associated to locally compact groups and talk about some interesting completely bounded multipliers on them.
Introduction to C_0 semigroups
UK Virtual Operator Algebras seminar held by zoom. See https://sites.google.com/view/uk-operator-algebras-seminar/home
Abstract
This talk will introduce some of the basic notions and results in the theory of C_0-semigroups, including generation theorems, growth and spectral bounds. If time permits, I will also try to discuss one or two classical results in the asymptotic theory of C_0-semigroups.
