The Mathematics of Wound Healing - Tanniemola Liverpool

Tanniemola Liverpool
(University of Bristol)
Further Information

Wound healing is a highly conserved process required for survival of an animal after tissue damage. Tannie will describe how we are beginning to use a combination of mathematics, physics and biology to disentangle some of the organising principles behind the complex orchestrated dynamics that lead to wound healing.

Tanniemola Liverpool is a Professor in the Applied Mathematics Institute of the School of Mathematics at Bristol.

Please email @email to register to attend in person.

The lecture will be broadcast on the Oxford Mathematics YouTube Channel on Wednesday 12 March at 5-6pm and any time after (no need to register for the online version).

The Oxford Mathematics Public Lectures are generously supported by XTX Markets.

Cohomology of subgroups of SL2

Henrique Souza
Abstract

Given an FP-infinity subgroup G of SL(2,C), we are interested in the asymptotic behavior of the cohomology of G with coefficients in an irreducible complex representation V of SL(2,C). We prove that, as the dimension of V grows, the dimensions of these cohomology groups approximate the L2-Betti numbers of G. We make no further assumptions on G, extending a previous result of W. Fu. This yields a new method to compute those Betti numbers for finitely generated hyperbolic 3-manifold groups. We will give a brief idea of the proof, whose main tool is a completion of the universal enveloping algebra of the p-adic Lie algebra sl(2, Zp).
