18th mathematical hike - October 20th 2018 PDF Print

Dear Friends of Mathematics and Hikes,

You are cordially invited to our 18th mathematical hike! It's an opportunity for students and employees of our department to spend time together in the countryside.

The hike will take place on October 20th. Start at 08:57 at the bus stop "Mokrá Hora."

We have planned a 16 km hike from Mokrá Hora through Útěchov and Bílovice to Obřany. There's a possibility to make the hike shorter (leaving for Soběšice or going by a public transport from Bílovice to Brno).

We are planning our next hikes on 24th of November, 15th of December.
More info, photos and chronicle at http://conference.math.muni.cz/vylety/. (in Czech)

We look forward to seeing you.

The seminar on Differential geometry will start on Monday, September 24, 2018, at 10.00, in the lecture room M5 with the first lecture:

Henrik Winther:

Title: Symmetries of complex submanifolds of quaternionic manifolds

Abstract:
The generalized Feix construction (by A.Borowka, D.Calderbank)  identifies c-projective manifolds with type 1,1 curvature with the totally complex submanifolds of quaternionic manifolds. Our goal is to investigate the relationship between c-projective symmetries and quaternionic symmetries in this setting. We will show when a symmetry can be lifted to the quaternionic manifold. Moreover, we show that any maximally- or sub-maximally symmetric quaternionic manifold arises from the construction, for some c-projective manifold. In particular, a (sub-)maximally symmetric c-projective manifold can be used to construct a (sub-)maximally symmetric quaternionic manifold. This is a joint work with A. Borowka.

17th mathematical hike is planned on July 21st PDF Print

Extreme hike!

17th mathematical hike is planned on July 21st. Every participant will contribute to determine the path by a dice roll on predetermined crossroads. Thus it will be (not entirely) random walk all day (possibility to leave anytime), approximately 50 km.

Meet at the tram stop "Řečkovice" at 6am (so we have enough time).

Have a great summer,

Jana Bartoňová or Jonatan Kolegar, organizers, Jan Slovák,

Director of the Department of Mathematics and Statistics

 
16th mathematical hike - June 23rd 2018 PDF Print

Dear Friends of Mathematics and Hikes,

You are cordially invited to the 16th mathematical hike planned on June 23rd 2018.

Start at 9:17 at the train stop in Rožná. We go by train at 8:06 from the main train station in Brno (zones 100+101+ 6 additional).

We have planned a hike of 25 km going by the castle Pernštejn, over the hills and through some small villages. You can end the hike after 8.5 km at the train stop in Nedvědice (after visiting the castle). We plan to officially end at the train stop in Borač, return to Brno by train (zones 100+101+ 4 additional).

 

We wish you a successful exam period and a nice summer.

 

Jana Bartoňová and Jonatan Kolegar, organizers
