I will explain how a recent “universal wall-crossing” framework of Joyce works in equivariant K-theory, which I view as a multiplicative refinement of equivariant cohomology. Enumerative invariants, possibly of strictly semistable objects living on the walls, are controlled by a certain (multiplicative version of) vertex algebra structure on the K-homology groups of the ambient stack. In very special settings like refined Vafa-Witten theory, one can obtain some explicit formulas. For moduli stacks of quiver representations, this geometric vertex algebra should be dual in some sense to the quantum loop algebras that act on the K-theory of stable loci.

When a body (such as an offshore structure and ship) exists on the surface of the ocean, it is influenced by waves. At the same time, waves are deformed by the body. This interaction is essential for considering the problems of bodies in waves. Although these are complicated systems, the theory is well-established based on linear potential flow, and this explains these phenomena very well.
In the seminar, some applications of potential theory-based analysis are shown, including the seakeeping of a ship, multi-bodies interaction, and elastic plate in waves. In addition, the progress of the study of wave-ice interaction in a marginal ice zone is presented which is a current work in UiO.

The survival of green plants depends on the efficient use of photosynthesis in the leaves, where sunlight, water, and CO2 are transformed into sugar – the raw material, which builds up even the largest trees. The dissolved sugars are transported by osmosis through the sieve tubes of the phloem, a vascular system, which runs through the veins of the leaves and on through the stem, all the way down into the roots. The sugar production sites (mesophyll) are distributed over the entire leaf, and it is important for the functionality of the leaf that they are all able to export their sugars. For conifer needles the linear venation architecture makes this challenging, and they have an extra “transfusion tissue” that bridges between production and transport. We are currently studying this complex collection of interdigitated water -and sugar-carrying cells by micro X-ray tomography on intact needles and by network modelling, to understand the pathways for water and for sugars (running in opposite directions) with huge pressure differences (say 3 MPa) across tiny length scales (say 5 microns).

Thomas Bohr is Professor of Physics at the Physics Department of the Technical University of Denmark.

Diffusion and reactions are central to understanding life. However, studies often focus on dilute systems, while the interior of living cells is crowded with macromolecules that occupy about 20 % to 40 % of the cell volume, affecting virtually all intracellular processes [1]. In this talk, I will mainly focus on diffusion, emphasising the effects significant to crowded intracellular environments, such as polydispersity of crowders [2], macromolecular shapes, interactions [3], and softness [4]. We will also briefly discuss how reactions proceed under crowding, paying particular attention to enzymatic reactions [5] and the cooperativity of divalent binding [6].

In 80s Weibel observed that K-theory is homotopy invariant on Fp-schemes up to p-torsion. His main tool was the action of the ring Witt vectors on nil-K-groups: NKi(R) = Ker(Ki(R[t]) → Ki(R)). We will revisit the proof and check that the same result holds for all finitary localizing invariants.

Stephen Hladky presents work in collaboration with Margery A. Barrand (both Department of Pharmacology, University of Cambridge).

Abstract: Extravascular fluxes of marker substances and some wastes are sufficiently fast that there is almost certain to be a component of flow augmenting their diffusion in the parenchyma. There have been two major proposals for how this flow is produced and where it is important. The evidence for the classical and glymphatic hypotheses will be reviewed. Extravascular, and in particular perivascular, routes for fluid movement out of the parenchyma to lymphatics may be important in the development of hydrocephalus.

I will explain how motivic homotopy theory can be used to attack problems regarding finite projective modules over smooth affine k-algebras. I will recall in particular the foundational theorem of Morel and Asok-Hoyois-Wendt, and the construction of the Barge-Morel Euler class. Time permitting, I will explain recent progress on Murthy's splitting conjecture.

We combine a systematic approach for deriving general a posteriori
 error estimates for convex minimization problems using convex duality relations with a recently derived generalized Marini formula. The resulting a posteriori error estimates are essentially constant-free and apply to a large class of variational problems including the p-Dirichlet problem, as well as degenerate minimization, obstacle and image de-noising problems.
For the p-Dirichlet problem, the a posteriori error bounds are equivalent to the classical residual type a posteriori error bounds and, hence, reliable and efficient.

We consider the linearized elasticity equations, discretized using multi-patch Isogeometric Analysis. To solve the resulting linear system, we choose the Dual-Primal Isogeometric Tearing and Interconnecting (IETI-DP) Method with a scaled Dirichlet preconditioner. We are interested in a convergence analysis. See more details below.

We will present the results of numerical experiments that demonstrate our theoretical findings.
