Trivector fields on moduli spaces

Nigel Hitchin
((Oxford University))
Abstract

The moduli space M of stable bundles on a Riemann surface possesses a natural family of holomorphic trivector fields. The talk will introduce these objects with examples and then use them to gain information about the Hochschild cohomology of M.

Anyone for a mince pi? Mathematical modelling of festive foods - Helen Wilson

In this Oxford Mathematics Christmas Public Lecture we look at a variety of delicious delights through a lens of fluid dynamics and mathematical modelling. From perfect roast potatoes to sweet sauces, mathematics gets everywhere!

Helen Wilson is Head of the Department of Mathematics at UCL. She is best known for her work on the chocolate fountain (which features in this lecture) but does do serious mathematical modelling as well.
