Guest lectures and seminars - Page 171

Philip Jonathan (Shell Projects & Technology, U.K. and Lancaster University) and David Randell (Shell Projects & Technology  and Durham University) will give two talks:

Modelling extreme environments

and

Locating and quantifying gas emission sources using remotely obtained concentration data

Wave measurements are traditionally performed in one of two locations: either at the sea surface or from below the surface. Both have their challenges and benefits.

Nortek is among those offering a subsurface wave measurement solution. This is done with acoustic Doppler current profilers. The presentation will discuss how subsurface wave measurements have evolved in the last decade. An emphasis will be placed on the challenges that exist and what has been done to expand the limits and improve the performance.

Asma Khedher (Technische Universität München) holder et seminar med tittelen: Stationarity of Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes with stochastic speed of mean reversion

Adam Skalski (IMPAN) will give a talk with title: Closed quantum subgroups of locally compact quantum groups and some questions of noncommutative harmonic analysis (based on joint work with Matt Daws, Pawel Kasprzak and Piotr Soltan)

Abstract: The notion of a closed subgroup of a locally compact group is a very straightforward concept, often featuring in classical harmonic analysis. I will discuss the possible extensions of this notion to the quantum setting, focusing on the comparison of the two definitions proposed by S. Vaes and S.L.  Woronowicz. I will describe some reformulations of these definitions and explain how they can beshown to be equivalent in many cases; I will also mention certain connections to other problems of quantum harmonic analysis.
