Dynamical Systems at Queen Mary |
|
Time: Tuesday
at 4pm (except Special Seminars); tea is available
from 3.15pm
in the adjacent common room.
Location:
Mathematics Seminar
Room
(Room 103, first floor of the
Mathematical Sciences Building)
Some general remarks:
Everyone is
invited to come to the
seminar. Ideally, the talks should be directed towards discussions of present lines of
research rather than covering as many details as possible in perfectly
arranged presentations.
Organizer:
Rainer Klages;
please e-mail me if you want
to be on
the seminar's mailing list, or perhaps want to give a
talk yourself.
