Mathematik Münster

This is a joint seminar of research groups from Bielefeld and Münster. It started in 2015 and usually takes place once every semester, either in Bielefeld or in Münster. The topics of interest include group theory, geometry and topology. Everyone is welcome to participate in the lectures.

The workshop is aimed at algebraic and arithmetic geometers curious about the potential application of model theory in their research, as well as at model theorists who are keen to learn how their tools may be extended to answer questions of geometric interest.

Model Theory meets GGT is a week-long conference aimed at bringing together young researchers in the areas of Model Theory and Geometric Group Theory. These two areas exhibit a rich interplay, and the mini-courses and research talks will be aimed to display topics in this intersection. Furthermore, there will be a lightning talks session in which all participants are encouraged to give a brief introduction to their own research and interests, so as to foster even more interaction between the participants.

This workshop on Stochastic Partial Differential Equations (SPDE) aims to provide an intensive series of lectures delivered by leading researchers in the field. Over the course of a week, young researchers will have the opportunity to deepen their understanding of SPDE and foster scientific exchange. The goal is to stimulate collaboration and advance knowledge among junior researchers through expert-led sessions and interactive discussions.

We welcome Dr. Radhika Gupta as a new Young Research Fellow at our Cluster. She is a Reader at the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, Mumbai. Her work is mostly in geometric group theory, where she made important contributions on the geometry of CAT(0) groups and free-by-cyclic groups. During her stay until mid February, she will work on this topic with Benjamin Brück and Katrin Tent, but she is always open for mathematical exchange on various topics.

For his contribution to the research programme "Recent Trends in Stochastic Partial Differential Equations", Prof. Dr. Hendrik Weber, investigator at Mathematics Münster, has been awarded a Clay Senior Scholar Award by the Simons Laufer Mathematical Sciences Institute (SLMath, formerly MSRI).
