SPEAKER MEETING
CMS M5
 
"Quantization and Differential Operators"
by Prof. Raphael Rouqier, Magdalen College, Oxford

He will discuss deformation and quantization of vector spaces with extra symmetries. Elementary deformations of the partial derivatives came up recently that led to surprisingly rich mathematics, at the crossroad of algebra, combinatorics, algebraic and harmonic analysis, geometry and mathematical physics.

Talk is free to members, 1 pound for non-members.

If anyone would like to dine with the speaker after the talk, can you please email archim-ents@srcf.ucam.org asap.
