Event Horizon har blitt en kultfilm siden den floppet på kino i 1997, og med nye gjennombrudd i forskningen på sorte hull er den stadig aktuell: I 2019 fikk vi for første gang se et bilde av et sort hull, og i 2022 kom det første bildet av hullet i sentrum av vår egen galakse – tatt av Event Horizon Telescope.

Dr. Julien Gagneur, Professor in Computational Molecular Medicine at the Technical University of Munich, Germany, will present his research on "Detecting and predicting aberrant splicing in human and Species-aware DNA language modeling."

Title: Natural experiments of aerosol-cloud interactions

Speaker: Velle Toll, University of Tartu

C*-algebra seminar talk by Makoto Yamashita (University of Oslo)

You are cordially welcome to participate in this three-day workshop on energy, climate, and ESG. As last year, the workshop will gather academics and practitioners from the industry, discussing the latest advances on the stochastics of risk measuring, modelling and managing, with a focus on energy systems, climate, and finance (ESG).

Key topics involve modelling uncertainty in weather and climate, optimisation problems related to energy systems to control emissions, as well as measuring risk factors related to climate change. 

There will be several invited talks by leading researchers as well as selected contributed talks by participants.

Welcome to our GEOHYD Lunch Seminar Friday 28th of April @ 12:15 in Aud. 2, Geology building, or via video link using Zoom. The seminar is held by Michael Stephen Town, UiB.

Join us at the department’s research seminar on 25. April, with the talk Quantum Computing for Computer Scientists - decipher the hype, given by associate professor Michael Kirkedal Thomsen from the Programming technology research group.

We discuss discretizations and solvers for a class of numerical methods for convection diffusion equations in arbitrary spatial dimensions. Targeted applications include the Nernst-Plank equations for transport of species in a charged media. We illustrate how such exponentially fitted methods are derived. A main step in proving error estimates is showing unisolvence for the quasi-polynomial spaces of differential forms defined as weighted spaces of differential forms with polynomial coefficients. We show that the unisolvent set of functionals for such spaces on a simplex in any spatial dimension is the same as the set of such functionals used for the polynomial spaces. We are able to prove our results without the use of Stokes' Theorem, which is the standard tool in showing the unisolvence of functionals in polynomial spaces of differential forms.
