Mathematics Münster

Prof. Dr. Anita Winter (Universität Duisburg-Essen) will speak about "Scaling limit of the Aldous-Broder chain on regular graphs: the transient regime" at the RTG Colloquium on 21 January 2026 at 5:00 pm. The talk will take place in room 216/217. Before the talk there will be an introductory talk for doctoral researchers and postdocs by Anita Winter at 4:00 pm and coffee and tea in the Cluster Lounge at 4:30 pm.

Prof. Dr. Georg Tamme (University Mainz) will give a talk entitled "Descent results in algebraic K-theory and applications" at the Colloquium Wilhelm Killing on 22 January 2026. The talk takes place at 2:15 pm in lecture hall M4. Tea time starts at 3:15 pm in the Cluster Common Room.  

There will be two talks at the CRC Colloquium on 23 January 2026 at 4:15 pm. Prof. Dr. Wilhelm Winter will speak about "Underlying dynamics of classifiable C*-algebras: Paper-folding models of the CAR algebra". Prof. Dr. Shirly Geffen will give a talk entitled "Stable rank one in nonnuclear C*-algebras". These two lectures will take place in lecture hall M4. Get-together afterwards in the Cluster Common Room.

Due to a large number of common mathematical interests in very diverse fields of mathematics, we decided to introduce a themed meeting bringing together researchers from the two institutions in related areas. The main objective is to get an idea about research interests and projects in each others' department (specifically at the PhD and postdoc level) and to provide a forum for future collaborations.

A major recognition for Prof. Dr. Franziska Jahnke and Dr. Konstantinos Kartas: On 31 January 2026, research results of the two members of Mathematics Münster will be presented at the "Séminaire N. Bourbaki" in Paris. The internationally renowned seminar series is considered a barometer of current developments in mathematical research.

How would you explain your research in one sentence or to a child? What fascinates you most about the field of your research? What advice would you give to young women entering research today? Dr. Amra Hasečić answers these and many other questions in a two-part interview with "WiRe - Women in Research". She was a WiRe Fellow this year in Prof. Dr. Mario Ohlberger's group at the Cluster of Excellence Mathematics Münster.
