SISSA

Junior Geometry and Mathematical Physics Seminar

Description

The Junior GMP Seminar is the PhD Students' Seminar of the SISSA programme in Geometry and Mathematical Physics. It aims to create a safe space for students to talk about their research or a topic of interest. It also gives an opportunity to everybody to learn what other fellow students are working on or are passionate about. Friends, guests and collaborators from other institutions are equally welcome to contribute, fostering connections among young mathematicians across institutions.

The talks are meant for a general audience of mixed geometers and mathematical physicists. Intuition and curiosity are the key words of the cycle, rather than technique. Ideally, during a seminar, a discussion between the speaker and the audience should arise.

All interested are welcome to attend!

Practical Info

There will be a seminar at least once every two weeks, for the whole academic year.

Where: Boris Dubrovin Lecture room 136
When: Thursday, at 4:30pm
Formats: Various formats are allowed:

- A 1h long talk, given by one speaker.

- A 1:30h long talk, given by one speaker. The first part is supposed to be introductive and intuitive to grasp, whereas the second one can be more technical. A short break in between is encouraged.

- A 1:30h long talk, given by two different speakers, one in the first half, one in the second one. The aim is to give two different perspectives on a shared topic.

We also have a calendar, where additional info about the schedule can be found.
