Friday seminar by Daniele Silvestro

Jorrit Leenaarts, post doc., Institutt for teoretisk astrofysikk, UiO

Å bruke numerikk i undervisningen er enklere enn du tror, og kan føre til bedre forståelse av fysiske fenomener og være nyttig i din egen forskning og formidling. I dette foredraget vil vi vise hvor lite som skal til for å komme i gang.

Kollokviet er beregnet på undervisere, men vil også være interessant for alle som vil vite mer om numeriske metoder i undervisning, forskning og formidling.

Extra seminar by Audun Rikardsen

Marcus K. V. Eriksson (Universitetet i Oslo) holder et seminar med tittelen: A valuation model with minimal and maximal constraints for swing options.

Roberto Conti, Universita La Sapienza (Rome), Italy, will give a talk with title: The dark side of the Cuntz algebras

Abstract: We provide an overview of our recent work on the automorphism group of Cuntz algebras and discuss a number of open problems. (Joint work with J.H. Hong and W. Szymanski).

Benjamin Holcblat (Department of Financial Economics, BI) will talk about

A Classical Moment-Based Approach with Bayesian Properties: Econometric Theory and Empirical Evidence from Asset Pricing

Extra seminar by Henkjan Honing (the Darwin Day vorspiel lecturer!)

Friday seminar by Sarah Randolph (NOTE THE TIME AND VENUE)

Gunther Cornelissen, Utrecht University (The Netherlands) will give a talk with title "Dynamical systems and point counting"

Abstract: Counting the points of a curve over finite fields doesn't determine the curve up to isomorphism; this is analogous to the famous fact that you cannot "hear the shape of a drum". I will show how to remedy this by counting points in a weighted way (namely, using abelian L-series). The method of proof is through the theory of dynamical systems, and - curiously - arose from a study of a quantum statistical mechanical system.  

Makoto Yamashita, p.t. University of Copenhagen, will give a talk with title "Tannaka-Krein duality of quantum homogeneous spaces"

Abstract: We study ergodic actions of compact quantum groups on operator algebras  (quantum homogeneous spaces) from the categorical point of view. The language of Rep(G)-module C*-categories gives a reconstruction theorem of quantum homogeneous spaces, which also captures the equivariant Morita equivalence and the equivariant homomorphisms.  For the case of quantum SU(2), the universality of Rep(SUq(2)) allows us to obtain a combinatorial description of quantum homogeneous spaces and their properties. Based on joint work with Kenny De Commer (arXiv:1211.6552, arXiv:1212.3413).
