Seminar, which will take place on Tuesdays, on Zoom, starting on 31st
March. The series will feature talks in both Combinatorics and
Probability and is open to anyone to attend.
For the first week we will have a single seminar at 2pm (UK time); in most
future weeks we will also have a second seminar at 3.30pm.
The first two talks will be:
31st March, 2pm: Rob Morris (IMPA), Erdős covering systems
7th April, 2pm: Louigi Addario-Berry (McGill), Hipster random walks.
More details can be found at http://people.maths.ox.ac.uk/scott/dmp.htm .
This will be something of an experiment while we get to grips with the
technology, but we're excited about the possibilities this format might
bring! We are aware of several other excellent such initiatives going on,
and will be keen to share our experiences and learn what works.
We have set up a mailing list for seminar announcements,
discmathprob@maillist.ox.ac.uk. In order to subscribe, please send an email
to sympa@maillist.ox.ac.uk with subject "subscribe discmathprob Firstname
Lastname" (replace "Firstname" and "Lastname" appropriately); leave the
message body blank. You should receive a message to let you know that your
subscription has been successful.
Our intention (of course with the agreement of the speakers) is to record
the seminars and put them on YouTube for an indefinite period of time, to
act as a resource for the community. This has consequences from the
perspective of data protection since, by default, if you participate,
personal data consisting of your username, audio and video may be recorded.
If you wish to participate but do not want your personal data recorded, you
should please make sure to turn off your video and mute your microphone.
Christina Goldschmidt and Alex Scott
