Part I: "The problem of global unique solvability of the Navier-Stokes equations"
by Timofei Shilkin

May 08, 15, 22, 29

Part II: "Corse Graph Theory" (TBC)
by Sandra Albrechtsen and James Davies

Date: June 5, 10, 12, 17

When viewed from far away, many graphs and metric spaces appear to have a much simpler "coarse" structure which captures their large-scale geometry. This idea is formalised by the notion of quasi-isometries. For example, string graphs and complete Riemannian planes are both quasi-isometric to planar graphs. The blossoming area of coarse graph theory aims to analyse the coarse structure of graphs and metric spaces.

We give an introduction to coarse graph theory and discuss some recent results. Topics will include coarse Menger's theorem, asymptotic minors, string graphs, asymptotic dimension, and connections to Cayley graphs and Riemannian surfaces.

Part III: TBA
