It’s almost September, although I’m not entirely sure how: feels like I’ve just started at Bristol, yet today marks three months here! So I’ve signed up for a couple of local events in September: the Heilbronn annual conference 2010 is on the 16-17th, and Engage 2010 is the following week, on the 23rd. Less concretely, [...]

The Diverse Faces of Arithmetic- Notes on Sequences
View as: At The Diverse Faces of Arithmetic there were a pair of (early morning!) overview lectures for postgraduates. I’ve finally got around to typesetting my notes from the first, Tom Ward’s session on recurrence sequences, available as pdf via the above link. The topics included are divisibilty sequences and primitive divisors; linear recurrences; elliptic [...]
The Diverse Faces of Arithmetic
I shall be attending “The Diverse Faces of Arithmetic” in Norwich next week; taking a break from cyclotomic thoughts to revisit some topics I’ve mentioned here in the past, such as elliptic divisibility sequences.
Young Researchers in Mathematics
There are now some videos available from the Beyond Part III / Young Researchers in Mathematics conference I attended earlier this year. Of particular note is David Spiegelhalter’s plenary lecture on probability and uncertainty. I summarised one of the ideas from that talk – the micromort – on Everything2, mentioning a comparison between the risks [...]
Workshop on Discovery and Experimentation in Number Theory
I’m back from the Fields Institute in Toronto, where I spoke at the above workshop, on my usual topic of cyclotomic and 4-cyclotomic matrices/graphs. During the talk I described my conjecture that a graph is maximal cyclotomic if-and-only if it’s 4-cyclotomic, and after an hour at the blackboards with James McKee I now have a [...]
MAGIC Talk
Slides for a talk on cyclotomic matrices/graphs given at the MAGIC conference in Manchester.
Conference Season 08
This May, I’ll be travelling all the way to Canada for ANTS-VIII, the Eighth Algorithmic Number Theory Symposium; I’m tacking a couple of days holiday on the front as well, so should be good!
Topics in Algebra, Analysis and Geometry.
