We will have a new ¡°mingle¡± meeting on Friday February 12 at 11.15 (as usual). The main attraction will be Mark Cheung who will explain what we have been doing during our week long workshop on the 3d floor in room 303 - the theme is ¡°Flares on the Sun¡± and modeling of these. This meeting is part of a NASA Heliophysics Grand Challenge Project, and I think I can guarantee that Mark will show some nice videos. Otherwise there will be updates from Kristine and myself on the running of the institute. But fear not, there will also be plenty of time for informal chat and eating of cake. All are welcome to the lobby on the first floor.

Atanas Iliev, Seoul National University, gives the Seminar in Algebra and Algebraic Geometry: 

Verra 3-folds and EPW quartics 

CEES Extra seminar by Richard Lenski

By Dr Ross T. Tsuyuki, BSc (Pharm), PharmD, MSc, FCSHP, FACC

Sandra Gran Stadniczenko (PhD student, AQUA)

Salvador Ortiz-Latorre (University of Oslo) is giving his inaugural lecture with the title: High order weak approximation of SDEs

This will be a colloqium-style talk, with pictures, about the classifying spaces and automorphism groups of manifolds, and the relation to surgery theory and algebraic K-theory.   

Uni Fuskeland, PhD student, ITA

Andrea Hofmann (HBV) gives the Seminar in Algebra and Algebraic Geometry:

Minimal resolutions for projective models of K3 surfaces in rational normal scrolls

Literature used in the seminar are selected chapters in the book ?K3 Projective Models in Scrolls? by Trygve Johnsen and Andreas Leopold Knutsen.

Abstract: As has been observed by many authors, the Drinfeld double of the q-deformation of a compact Lie group can be regarded as a quantization of the complexification of the original Lie group. Using this point of view, I will discuss irreducible unitary representations of these Drinfeld doubles.

Kostiantyn Ralchenko (Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv) gives a talk with the title: A generalisation of the fractional Brownian field based on non-Euclidean norms

Yuliya Mishura (Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv) gives a lecture with the title: What can happen between two self-similarities?

Friday seminar by Benjamin Weigel

Geir Ellingsrud (UiO), gives the Seminar in Algebra and Algebraic Geometry:

Projective models of K3-surfaces II

The seminar takes place in the seminar room on the 9th floor of the computer science building.

Abstract: We discuss a way of constructing noncommutative projective manifolds as inductive and projective limits, generalizing the so-called Berezin quantization for ordinary compact K?hler manifolds. We first review the physical motivation for Berezin quantization and then discuss how the restriction to commutative manifolds limits the use of this quantization. We will also outline how our more general construction appears naturally in the study of the long-time limit of open quantum systems.

Ingrid Hob?k Haff (UiO, Dept. of mathematics) will give a seminar in the lunch area, 8th floor N.H. Abel's House at 14:15.
