Go on exchange to the world's northernmost campus, 78 ° north! As a science student at UiO, you can take courses at the University Center on Svalbard (UNIS) as part of your degree.

I will discuss the “geometric method” for syzygies and discuss applications to the study of tautological bundles of linear spaces. From this, I will explain how to pass from realizable matroids to all matroids via initial degenerations. This is joint work in progress with Alex Fink and Chris Eur.

Doctoral candidate Rebecca Anne Robinson at the Institute of Theoretical Astrophysics, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, is defending the thesis "Magnetic characteristics of quiet Sun nanoflares" for the degree of Philosophiae Doctor.

PhD candidate Elke Eriksen at the Department of Biosciences, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, is defending the thesis "Occupational exposure to bioaerosols in the waste sorting industry & potential exposure related health effects" for the degree of PhD.

Title: The connection between the Atlantic Multidecadal Variability and Indian summer rainfall: a review

Speaker: Fei Fei Luo, Chengdu University

Welcome to our lunch seminar held in the dScience lounge area, with DNB's ESG Hub.

SPARK Norway Educational Forum are monthly open meetings organized by UiO:Life Science and SPARK Norway partners.

The seminar will be streamed in the box below. It will not be available until 15:00 on the 20th of September.

A finite graph determines a Kirchhoff polynomial, which is a squarefree, homogeneous polynomial in a set of variables indexed by the edges. The Kirchhoff polynomial appears in an integrand in the study of particle interactions in high-energy physics, and this provides some incentive to study the motives and periods arising from the projective hypersurface cut out by such a polynomial.

From the geometric perspective, work of Bloch, Esnault and Kreimer (2006) suggested that the most natural object of study is a polynomial determined by a linear matroid realization, for which the Kirchhoff polynomial is a special case.

I will describe some ongoing joint work with Delphine Pol, Mathias Schulze, and Uli Walther on the interplay between geometry and matroid combinatorics for this family of objects.

QOMBINE seminar by Roy Araiza (University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign)

Velkommen til semesterets første GeoOnsdag. I denne utgaven er det professor Terje Koren Berntsen fra Institutt for geovitenskap ved Universitetet i Oslo som skal holde foredrag.

Doctoral candidate Manuel Carrer at the Department of Chemistry, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, is defending the thesis "From All-Atom To Mesoscale: Bridging The Gap With Differentiable Molecular Dynamics" for the degree of Philosophiae Doctor.

Welcome to a two-day event in Oslo. The event will cover the broad topics of ageing and dementia, in particular Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases, at molecular, individual, and societal levels.

Helga Margrete Bodahl Holmestad from the SINTEF Digital’s Department of Mathematics and Cybernetics. 

Helga, together with Eirik Høyehem (Helga's summer student) and Mari Lindlan (a former CS student working in the optimization group) will share with us:

Eli Bæverfjord Rye will defend her thesis “Searching for chargino–neutralino pair production in √s = 13 TeV pp collisions with the ATLAS detector” for the degree of Philosophiae Doctor at the University of Oslo, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences.

Welcome to the GEOHYD Lunch Seminar Friday 15th of September @ 12:15 in Aud. 1, Geology building, or via video link using Zoom. The seminar is held by Olivier Gagliardini, Université Grenoble Alpes.

Innovations in fluid mechanics are leading to better food since ancient history, while creativity in cooking inspires applied and fundamental science. In this talk, I will discuss how recent advances in hydrodynamics are changing food science, and how the surprising phenomena that arise in the kitchen lead to discoveries and technologies across the disciplines, including rheology and soft matter. Central topics include cocktails and champagne (multiphase flows), whipped cream (complex fluids) and pancake making (viscous flows). For every topic, I will present the state-of-the-art knowledge, the open problems, and likely directions for future research.
