Hi everyone! We are delighted to have Professor Béla Bollobás start the ball rolling this coming Monday. Here are the talk details:

Title: Geometry, Number Theory, and Combinatorics: Recent Progress on Old Problems

Speaker: Prof. Béla Bollobás

Abstract: It is always fascinating to see progress on mathematical problems that had remained intractable for years. In this talk, which should be understandable to freshmen, and of interest to all mathematicians, I shall give one or two recent examples of this.

Date: Monday, 14 October

Time: 7pm

Location: MR2, CMS

In addition, here’s the TMS Termcard, listing the Michaelmas talks and events. Locations of subsequent talks will be confirmed closer to the date. There are also some sponsor events in the works; stay tuned for further updates!

Finally, we are excited to open the TMS Discord Server, a digital social hub for members to connect and socialise over maths and non-maths alike, outside of the weekly talks! To join, check the mailing list for the invite link, or contact the Membership Secretary, Blaise Mo (bm628).
