In the last Kovalevskaya colloquium of 2025, Niethammer will give an overview of the basic properties of coagulation equations, explain some of the main challenges in its analysis and report on recent progress Barbara Niethammer is Professor at the Institute for Applied Mathematics at the University of Bonn.

In this talk, Böttcher will introduce he area of graph and hypergraph decompositions, with background, motivation, and some history, indicating how randomness and quasirandomness are instrumental for tackling these problems. Julia Böttcher is professor in Mathematics at the London School of Economics and Political Science.

Starting with Schrödinger's critique of the difficulty of visualising Heisenberg's matrix quantum physics, Hausel will discuss the notion of non-commutative matrices and its use in particle physics via Gell-Mann's eightfold way describing heavy particles in terms of quarks. Tamás Hausel has been full professor of mathematics at the Institute of Science and Technology Austria (ISTA) since 2016

Steidl introduces a novel general framework for constructing generative models using one-dimensional noising processes beyond diffusion. Gabriele Steidl is professor for Applied Mathematics at the Institute of Mathematics at the TU Berlin.

In der Vortragsreihe MATHINSIDE geben Wissenschaftler*innen des Exzellenzclusters MATH+ spannende Einblicke in ihre Forschungsarbeit und in die Anwendungsgebiete der Mathematik. Das Vortragsprogramm eignet sich hervorragend als Ausflugsziel für Schulklassen und -kurse ab Klassenstufe 10.

As in previous years, the Berlin Clusters of Excellence are once again teaming up to organize a SCIENCE SLAM at the Berlin Science Week 2025 on November 6. The Science Slam has, as always, attracted a lot of interest in the research coming out of the participating Clusters of Excellence. Don’t miss the chance to see Berlin’s brightest young scientists take the stage!
