Dr. Alexander Schnurr (TU Dortmund) holder et seminar med tittelen: A Canonical Way to Derive Properties of Lévy-Type Processes
Et Eilenberg-Mac Lane rom K(G,n) er bestemt av å ha homotopigruppe G konsentrert i dimensjon n (og 0 ellers), og representerer n-te kohomologi med koeffisienter i G opp til homotopi. Barkonstruksjonen på K(G,n) gir et nytt rom BK(G,n)=K(G,n+1) som selv er en topologisk gruppe. Diagonalen G--->GxG og multiplikasjonen GxG--->G induserer en multiplikasjon på mod p homologigrupper, og gjør denne til en koalgebraisk ring (eller Hopf algebra). Jeg vil konstruere en spektralsekvens av Hopf algebraer (bar spektralsekvensen) som beregner homologi av K(G,n+1) gitt homologi av K(G,n) (for homologiteorier med en Künneth-formel), og vil så beregne mod p-homologi av K(Z,3)=BK(Z,2) som Hopf algebra.

Finite volume methods for elasticity and poro-elasticity
Abstract: We introduce a new class of cell-centered finite volume methods for elasticity and poro-elasticity. This class of discretization methods has the advantage that the mechanical discretization is fully compatible (in terms of grid and variables) to the standard cell-centered finite volume discretizations that are prevailing for commercial simulation of multi-phase flows in porous media.
For a specific variant of the proposed discretization, we give an overview of a convergence proof in the setting of isotropic elasticity, and address from a theoretical perspective the issues of a discrete Korn's inequality and robustness with respect to locking. Furthermore, we give numerical results for both structured and unstructured grids for both elasticity and poro-elasticity. The talk concludes with an application to simulation of fractured and fracturing porous media.
Risk measures are set to quantify in terms of assets/money the amount of financial risk associated to a certain financial position. The purposes for such evaluations are many and interesting both from the investors perspectives and regulators. As example, these evaluations are important to quantify the amount of reserve that financial institutions, such as banks or insurance companies, have to set aside as hedging guarantee. In the recent years large attention is given towards convex and coherent risk measures.
A series of 10 lectures will be held by Prof. Giacomo Scandolo, Department of Mathematics, University of Verona (Italy), visiting scholar at our department.
The course is suggested to Master and PhD students in the area of Stochastic Analysis, Insurance, and Risk as well as practitioners in the area.

Magnus Landstad will give a talk with title: Quantum groups from almost matched pairs of groups - the groupoid approach
Abstract: If G is a locally compact group with two closed subgroups H,K s.t. G=HK, then (H,K) is called a matched pair of subgroups. The construction of a quantum group from such a pair goes back a long time. We shall look at the more general case where the subgroups are almost matched (the complement of HK in G has measure 0), then a groupoid approach to the construction is very useful and many formulas are obtained for free.
I shall start with explaining the concepts needed (quantum groups, groupoids, etc) and then how the groupoid is constructed. Finally we shall look at the special case where G has a compact open subgroup.
This is joint work with A. Van Daele.

On the self-similar blow-up for the compressible Euler equations
Abstract: The problem of finite time blow-up/global regularity of the 3D incompressible Euler equations is an outstanding problem in mathematical fluid mechanics. On the other hand, the scenario of self-similar type blow-up is a natural candidate of blow-ups in various nonlinear partial differential equations such as the porous medium equation and the nonlinear Schrödinger equations. We also mention that for the closely related incompressible Navier-Stokes equations the question of self-similar blow-up was raised by J. Leray in 1930, and was negatively answered by J. Necas, M. Ruzicka and V. Sverak in 1996. In this talk we present the progress of study during the last several years on the self-similar blow-up for the Euler equations.

Analysis of a finite difference method for two-dimensional incompressible magnetohydrodynamics
Abstract: We consider the magnetohydrodynamics equations for a viscous incompressible resistive fluid in two dimensions. For these equations we analyse a semi-discrete finite difference scheme that is based on a staggered grid and is energy preserving. We show an a priori H^1-bound and the convergence of the scheme.
