Our world is becoming increasingly complex, digitization is advancing, and ever-greater volumes of data are being produced every day. How can we use data to tackle major challenges facing our society or contribute to progress? MATH+ scientists will introduce aspects of the research spectrum with
During the Berlin Science Week (01-10 November 2021), MATH+ member Sarah Wolf offers a "Decision Theatre" to discuss sustainable mobility in small groups of participants. The results and potential impacts will be visualized on large screens based on mathematical modeling.
In this talk, Rosenbaum will present an overview of recent results related to the rough volatility paradigm. Mathieu Rosenbaum is a full professor at Ecole Polytechnique in Paris. His areas of research are statistical finance, stochastic modelling and quantitative financial regulation.
The Kick-off Workshop of the TES in Winter Semester 2021/22 on "Mathematics of Imaging in Real-World Challenges" will take place in the Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt Institute Berlin (PTB) on 06-08 October 2021. This event will bring together practitioners, biomedical engineers, computer vision and machine learning experts
An exceptionally gifted mathematician and an extremely complex person, Floer exhibited, as one friend put it, a "radical individuality." Indeed, his revolutionary mathematical ideas, contradicting conventional wisdom, could only be inspired by such impetus, and can only be understood in this context. Helmut Hofer is
Over the past decade, research at the interface of topology and neuroscience has grown remarkably fast. In this talk, after a very brief introduction to the necessary elements of neuroscience, Hess will survey the results obtained by her and her collaborators when applying topological tools
There are many situations in geometry and group theory where it is natural, convenient or necessary to explore infinite groups via their actions on finite objects. But how much understanding can one really gain about an infinite group by examining its finite images? Sometimes little,
Conditional Gradient Methods are an important class of methods to minimize smooth convex functions over polytopes. In this talk, Pokutta will give a broad overview of these methods and their applications and present some recent results both in traditional optimization and learning as well as
Tree decompositions are a powerful tool in structural graph theory that is traditionally used in the context of forbidden graph minors. Connecting tree decompositions and forbidden induced subgraphs has so far remained out of reach. Recently, several results in this direction have been obtained. The
On 1 and 2 March 2021, the Berlin Mathematical School will host its first online BMS Days. On Tuesday, 2 March 2021 all events will be open to the MATH+ community. We are pleased to invite you to attend the following two talks: Gabriele Steidl
