Welcome back! We hope you had a fantastic Easter break and are ready for term 3. This is obviously a busy and potentially stressful time of the academic year, so don’t forget that the TPO is on hand to offer you support and guidance if you need it.
Good luck, you’ve got this, and it’s wonderful to see you all back on campus!
Huge congratulations to Professor Nikos Zygouras, who has been awarded one of this year's Frontiers of Science Awards.
Professor Zygouras won the award for the paper The Critical 2D Stochastic Heat Flow, which he co-authored with Francesco Caravenna and Rongfeng Sun and that was published in Inventiones in 2023.
It’s the end of term! We hope you all have a relaxing break…and to any finalists reading this, why not take some time over the next few weeks to complete the National Student Survey? It’s a great way to share your thoughts on your time here and only takes a few minutes to complete.
See you all in a few weeks!
Finalists! Come and grab your free pizza this Thursday 19th March, between 1-2pm in the Zeeman foyer, outside MS01 and MS02 lecture theatre. Vegan and gluten free options available.
While you are enjoying your delicious pizza (did we mention it was free?!), if you haven’t already completed the NSS survey, why not take the time to do this?
The NSS survey takes just 10-15 minutes to complete and is your chance to express your views on the University and your department and helps us to improve our provision for future students.
If free pizza wasn’t enough for you, you can also come and get your fantastic tote bag, as modelled here by our very own Dr Dave Wood. These come in a variety of colours, are great quality and are a very useful souvenir from your time at Warwick. We’ll be giving these away to those who have not already received one, on Wednesday 2:30-3pm and 4-4:30pm, in the Zeeman foyer.
Free food, free bag and the chance to have your say. That’s a great day - hope to see you soon!
Zeeman’s Easter egg hunt - keep your eyes peeled!
Between now and Friday (20th March) there will be a bunch of chalk eggs hidden around our building. If you find one, bring it to the TPO in B0.01 to swap it for a chocolatey treat! 🥚🐰
More eggs will be hidden each day. However, there won’t be any eggs in teaching rooms or lecture theatres, so please don’t disturb any classes on your search.
Happy hunting!
Finalists! Have you completed the NSS yet? It’s a great chance for you to share your thoughts on your time at Warwick, it massively helps the students who will come after you, and it only takes a few minutes to complete.
Everything you need will have been emailed to you, so check your inbox!
Huge congratulations to Professor Richard Montgomery, who is one of the joint-winners of this year's Adams Prize!
The Adams Prize is one of the University of Cambridge's oldest and most prestigious prizes, and is awarded to UK-based researchers, under the age of 40, doing first class international research in the Mathematical Sciences.
This year's topic was 'discrete mathematics' and Professor Montgomery was jointly awarded the prize alongside Julian Sahasrabudhe (Cambridge).
According to the Adams Prize website, Professor Montgomery was recognised for his profound contributions to extremal combinatorics. His many important contributions include his proof of the celebrated Ryser-Brualdi-Stein conjecture on Latin squares, his result on transversal decompositions of random Latin squares, his proof of Ringel's conjecture on tree packing and his work resolving several old problems of Erdős and his collaborators on cycles in graphs.
Huge congratulations again to Professor Montgomery!
Finalists! You have another chance to find out more about the NSS and grab your free tote bag tomorrow afternoon - we’ll be in the foyer outside MS01 and MS02 between 1pm and 3.30pm…come and see us!
Have you joined our weekly Maths Art Social yet? Mondays from 5-6pm in the undergraduate workroom. No experience or materials needed - just come along!
Huge thanks to Lynn for sharing this photo of last week’s work!
