C*-algebra seminar talk by Ole Brevig (University of Oslo)
Second of two lectures on constructing non-Fourier-Mukai functors
Abstract: After a broad overview of the activities of MecaWet group at PMMH, the presentation will focus on the “dry side” of MecaWet.
This talk is part of the Mechanics Lunch Seminar series. Bring-your-own-lunch and lots of questions.

How to strengthen global cooperation to prevent future pandemics? In this seminar, Adam Kamradt-Scott will discuss different proposals currently being negotiated, such as a new pandemic treaty or revising existing international instruments.
Anders Jahre’s Senior Medical Prize for 2021 is awarded to Professor Poul Nissen, the Director of the Nordic EMBL Partnership’s Danish node, DANDRITE. On the occasion he will talk about his work at the Jahre lectures.

China’s rise to superpower status is the most important geopolitical change of our time. On November 3rd we are excited to host two international experts on this topic, Elizabeth Economy and Shaun Breslin, in discussion with China correspondent for the New York Times, Amy Qin.
Cards are drawn, one at a time, with replacement, from a deck of n cards. I study the total time W_n needed until we have seen all n cards, via different perspectives, along with a Gumbel limiting distribution. Various non-trivial identities, involving different perspectives for moments and Laplace transformations, are found as corollaries. These findings are also used to estimate the number of different cards,if uknown. If I needed to sample 133 words from a document, before I had 50 different words, what is the vocabulary size for the document? How many words did Shakespeare know (including those he never used in his writing)?
An Abels T?rn podcast about some of these themes, which attracted a fair amount of inspired comments and guesses from the public (specifically, finding the mean of W_n above, for the case of n = 52 cards), can be found on the Abels T?rn website, July 2021, as a conversation with Torkild Jemterud, Jo R?islien, and myself.

Does climate panic cost us billions of dollars, harm the poor, and slow down transition to a better world?Arne N?ss seminars, Wigestrand Forlag and Norwegian Business School (BI) invite to a book debate with Bj?rn Lomborg, Bj?rn H. Samset and Atle Midttun.
The Centre for Gender Research and the FRONT project are hosting the first event in the seminar series Gender Inequality and Precarity in Academia in the European Context. In this webinar, Sevil Sümer will discuss the concept of gendered academic citizenship, focusing particularly on problems experienced by early-career academics, or “transitional” academic citizens.
The PDE seminars for the Autumn of 2021 will be held every Tuesday from 10:15–12:00
Professor Dan Crisan, Imperial College London, author of several books on filtering is now holding an intensive course.
Abstract: Mixed-dimensional partial differential equations (PDEs) are equations coupling unknown fields defined over domains of differing topological dimensions. Such mixed-dimensional PDEs naturally arise in a wide range of fields including geology, biomedicine, and fracture mechanics. We introduce an automated framework dedicated to mixed-dimensional problems as part of the FEniCS library. This talk gives an overview of the abstractions and algorithms involved. The introduced tools will be illustrated by concrete examples of applications in biomedicine (see below for more detailed context).

The talk is elementary and discusses empirical modelling of single variables with insurance losses as example. There are in such cases little or no theory to go on, and the amount of data is many situation quite scarce. Why do we so often limit ourselves to fit two-parameter families? It will be suggested that it may be a good idea to work with more flexible models with three or four parameters and that this may provide a nice framework for automating the entire procedure for the computer to work alone. Sure, with little data the parameters may be unstably estimated, but that may not apply equally to the distributions they define. Many-parameter families suitable for insurance losses will be reviewed with some simple asymptotics in an example allowing this and with Monte Carlo to throw light on the issue in other cases.
