Fractal geometry of the Markov and Lagrange spectra and their set difference
2025-04-29
Speaker: Carlos Gustavo Moreira (IMPA, Brazil)
We will discuss some recent results on the fractal geometry of the Markov and Lagrange spectra, \( M \) and \( L \) which are classical objects from the theory of Diophantine approximations, and their set difference. In particular, we discuss recent results in collaboration with Erazo,...

Epithelial dysfunction as a decisive key in the prevention and treatment of inflammations - Mathematical modeling and computational simulations
2025-05-09
Speaker: Telma Silva (Univ. Cabo Verde)
Several diseases such as inflammation (e.g. chronic intestinal inflammation and chronic inflammatory disease in cardiovascular system), infections (e.g. infection of airway epithelium, human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and foot-and-mouth disease), acute lung injury, allergies and cancer...

Describing good objects in categories with weak algebraic properties
2025-05-13
Speaker: Andrea Montoli (Univ. degli Studi di Milano, Italy)
With the initial motivation of looking for a categorical characterization of groups among monoids, we introduced some conditions on objects in general categories, describing good algebraic properties holding locally for these objects although not globally in the category. These conditions,...

Generalized conjugacy separability in extensions of groups
2025-05-13
Speaker: André Carvalho (CMUP, Univ. Porto)
Separability properties in groups can be seen as an algebraic analogue of classical decision problems in finitely presented groups, as an argument by Mal'cev shows that if a subset S of a finitely presented group is recursively enumerable, separable and its image under a surjective...

Normed categories
2025-05-20
Speaker: Walter Tholen (York Univ., Toronto, Canada)
In this talk we explore Lawvere's notion of normed category through the lens of easily understood small and large example categories. Cauchy convergence of sequences in such categories gets presented as a natural extension of familiar concepts taught in Calculus and Functional Analysis, but...

Self-dual aspects of semi-abelian categories
2025-05-20
Speaker: Tim Van der Linden (Univ. catholique de Louvain and Vrije Univ. Brussel, Belgium)
The aim of this talk is to introduce di-exact categories [3], which are defined by a simple axiom system capturing self-dual aspects of the context of Janelidze-Márki-Tholen semi-abelian categories [2,1]. A Borceux-Bourn homological category [1] is Barr-exact if and only if it is di-exact....
