Splittings of free groups
Ric Wade
(University of Oxford)
Abstract
We will discuss topological and algebraic aspects of splittings of free groups. In particular we will look at the core of two splittings in terms of CAT(0) cube complexes and systems of surfaces in a doubled handlebody.

Singularity formation in critical parabolic equations
Monica Musso
(University of Bath)
Abstract
In this talk I will discuss some recent constructions of blow-up solutions for a Fujita type problem for power related to the critical Sobolev exponent. Both finite type blow-up (of type II) and infinite time blow-up are considered. This research program is in collaboration with C. Cortazar, M. del Pino and J. Wei.

Hannah Fry - Hello World
Hannah Fry - University College of London
(UCL)
Abstract
Hannah Fry takes us on a tour of the good, the bad and the downright ugly of the algorithms that surround us. Are they really an improvement on the humans they are replacing?
Hannah Fry is a lecturer in the Mathematics of Cities at the Centre for Advanced Spatial Analysis at UCL. She is also a well-respected broadcaster and the author of several books including the recently published 'Hello World: How to be Human in the Age of the Machine.'

Machine Learning, String Theory, and Geometry
Jim Halverson
(Northeastern University)
Abstract
Breakthroughs in machine learning have led to impressive results in numerous fields in recent years. I will review some of the best-known results on the computer science side, provide simple ways to think about the associated techniques, discuss possible applications in string theory, and present some applications in string theory where they already exist. One promising direction is using machine learning to generate conjectures that are then proven by humans as theorems. This method, sometimes referred to as intelligible AI, will be exemplified in an enormous ensemble of F-theory geometries that will be featured throughout the talk.
